Will be great way to spend the 8.88% interest I get on my USDC. I guess some here are happier with their 1% from the brick n mortar banks https://celsius.network/ That's a similar yield that the Evergrande bonds offered....and how much are they worth now?

sucit Posted September 27, 2021 Share Posted September 27, 2021 I love reading these replies. You have people saying, without knowing it of course, the following… ”I want my dealings with money to come from the bankers, because they were suits when they go on tv, not hoodies”. “I like banking and transfers that charge me fees”. You know, every time you swipe your credit card or buy something on Amazon, the retailer gets charged a fee. Guess who pays for that fee! It’s just a cost the retailer has to deal with. You pay it; you pay the damn merchant credit card fees. And here you have a system where the payments will be free of charge over a public network, and people are complaining. Haha. Not to mention their everlasting trust in the suit wearingIm bankers of the world lol. It is just too much entertainment for one to get. Don’t give me the satisfaction, it’s just too good I don’t deserve this much pleasure. 1 4 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just tried to explain that. Every single transaction you do their is a fee that gets paid. You may not see it, but you pay it in the end. But yes! The banks are your friend.
