he could set up his own stuff, and it would probably keep running

2018-12-07 21:29:04 UTC  

once the dominoes start, its hard to get them to stop

2018-12-07 21:29:09 UTC  

no he can't

2018-12-07 21:29:13 UTC  

well he can for the time being

2018-12-07 21:29:22 UTC  

but payment processors are next to deperson

2018-12-07 21:29:28 UTC  

card corps

2018-12-07 21:29:34 UTC  

card corps?

2018-12-07 21:29:37 UTC  

ACH is more regulated

2018-12-07 21:29:40 UTC  

mc / visa

2018-12-07 21:29:49 UTC  

oh well people don't want ACH

2018-12-07 21:29:56 UTC  

people want visa / mc / paypal

2018-12-07 21:30:16 UTC  

sargon might not even get booted from paypal or stripe

2018-12-07 21:30:48 UTC  

"might"

2018-12-07 21:30:53 UTC  

patreon is in a dicey position because of the history

2018-12-07 21:30:56 UTC  

did you notice tim didn't highlight paypal today

2018-12-07 21:31:03 UTC  

and did youtube's join instead

2018-12-07 21:31:24 UTC  

when you sign up there, you deal with all their baggage

2018-12-07 21:31:31 UTC  

square is a no-go for wrong thinkers though, twitter owns them

2018-12-07 21:31:34 UTC  

so you are probably on an even shorter leash

2018-12-07 21:32:07 UTC  

patreon has a history of high fraud claims, etc.

2018-12-07 21:32:29 UTC  

and many, many people - any of whom may be doing stupid things at any given time

2018-12-07 21:32:47 UTC  

all of which will drive complaints to the payment processors about patreon

2018-12-07 21:32:50 UTC  

and shit runs downhill

2018-12-07 21:32:58 UTC  

we need blockchain for that

2018-12-07 21:33:11 UTC  

What payment services won't kick you off and ban you for "wrong think"?

2018-12-07 21:33:21 UTC  

can simply accept bitcoin transfers now

2018-12-07 21:33:31 UTC  

can't buy bitcoin with credit card in the US

2018-12-07 21:33:36 UTC  

only wire transfer

2018-12-07 21:34:01 UTC  

which makes it enough of a pain in the ass that people won't bother

2018-12-07 21:34:06 UTC  

coinbase doesn't let you transfer in with a debit card?

2018-12-07 21:34:23 UTC  

.. thought it did, last I tried

2018-12-07 21:34:56 UTC  

the change was fairly recent if i recall

2018-12-07 21:35:01 UTC  

bitcoin is too volitile

2018-12-07 21:35:03 UTC  

we need to wait till bitcoin is stable and no more speculative currency or use different one

2018-12-07 21:35:23 UTC  

oooh... which shitcoin is best?

2018-12-07 21:35:26 UTC  

and that will probably never happen honestly

2018-12-07 21:36:05 UTC  

brave wallet may have the best odds -no idea what the politics there are

2018-12-07 21:36:19 UTC  

idk which is best, i just see how Ethereum is constantly growing it's infrastructure

2018-12-07 21:36:29 UTC  

them problem is not with *a* particular service

2018-12-07 21:36:40 UTC  

there are only a handful of card processors

2018-12-07 21:36:47 UTC  

and they can shut them down
