find one

Where?

anywhere

who cares?

Not where I have lived.

bank, credit union

literally every small town has them

internet banks

the list is endless

Maybe in the US, a legacy of your history of decentralised currencies.

Not anywhere I have lived.

find one that is comfortable with your business, and implement ACH for your supporters

quickbooks has it built in

There are local branches which represent a handful of national and international banks.

all you need is a financial institution that handles transactions
and will sign a contract with you that they cannot breach

AND
here is the key
every individual publisher needs to do that

Apparently, Sargon was banned from Patreon now.

yup

RIP every moderate.

Honestly, I don't see it as a) censorship resistant or b) practical, or even possible, in the jurisdictions I have lived in (4 countries in total).

I understand your reticence about blockchains.

But a) there are blockchains which are properly private and circumvent censhorship

But, then again when a door is shut, a window is open.

We can always use the Blockchain, as there's no third party involved

you don't see establishing a contractual banking relationship as possible @Heteronymus Bosch

and b) it's happening whether you like it or not.

let it happen

If Sargon can be seen as violating Patreon ToS, I don't think anyone who isn't a flaming progressive is safe.

nobody is safe
on SOMEONE ELSE's platform

this isn't rocket science

either you build your own busines - or you don't honestly have one

I'

Unless you have a few billion to launch your own bank and credit card, none of this blockchain bullshit is going to help. You still have to interface with the real world economy at some point, and at that point they'll shut you down.

This is why crypto is the future. It's supposed to be used and traded as a currency, not stock.

Visa, Mastercard, and the banks are all hostile.

m not sure you are aware of the power that the state has - without court approval - over banks in some countries.

the intelligent point of interface is a contractual banking relationship

Blockchain.

for crypto to replace bank currency, the entire world would have to adopt it

Read back over the last hour of conversation...

Ik, but we can use crypto for donations.
