  • Venezuela freed those people. From the article:

    In a statement on Friday, the Venezuelan government said it had secured the release of 252 Venezuelan nationals who “remained kidnapped and subjected to forced disappearance in a concentration camp” in El Salvador. “Venezuela has paid a high price,” the statement continued, to free the men as part of an agreement with US government authorities.




  • I believe I’ve seen recent cost analysis of using crypto exchanges to transfer money across international borders instead of doing direct conversion through whatever “classical” money transfer service and it showed that due to exchange rates, price fluctuations between crypto exchanges, gas fees, and fiat exchange rates into and out of crypto from usd to whatever currency of the recipient its actually tangibly cheaper to just use a direct wire transfer and currency exchange.

    I’ll have to see if I saved the post with the price breakdowns to send you but I just wanted to share that in case you hadn’t heard about it yet. If you had seen that and did find it cheaper somewhere else I’d also be interested to hear where it is actually cheaper. That’s just the most recent analysis I had seen of the costs to exchange from fiat to crypto, send internationally, and then withdraw it in the native currency.

    Rip to the millions you smoked away btw lol I would’ve done the exact same honestly



  • Fairly important to point out the Israeli soldier’s large disappointment about their orders from the top to no longer shoot and kill civilians seeking aid. It’s not really a surprise that a week later we see a story like this unless you just completely ignored everything that’s happened in the last two years.

    Thanks for offering a solution! I’ll give it a whirl and see if its any better than nothing. I appreciate you guys having a native app and updating it yourselves. I’m fine with waiting so long as it’s something you’re aware of and are working on!
