I was listening to the latest #Bitcoin Standard Podcast episode with Dave Birnbaum from Coinbits. And I was really intrigued by the app.
But I found it really funny when Dave started talking about how giving them an xpub could help users with the self-custody experience in exchange for some privacy. It's not like the app's entire business model is an invasion of privacy, and god knows what they do with all your financial data after you link your bank accounts. But hey, give us your xpub too so that we know everything!
Seriously, who uses this app?
