Cash App lets you do this with their debit card and you pay no fees for BTC

2024-03-15 23:55:24

@npub1yk3…yya6 I just got my Bitkey love the hardware. But for some reason I can’t purchase Bitcoin through Bitkey with Cash App…it’s only allowing Coinbase or both partners for transfer. Any clue why?

When will bitkeys be shipping? I saw March 7th was the last date but curious when it’ll actually go out.

2024-02-21 15:18:20

@npub1yk3…yya6 when are bitkeys shipping? Can you share some insights into how it’s performing?

This issue is now occurring on my wife’s cash app card too - 2 totally different accounts. Are you guys seeing reports of this? @npub1zvr…vf63 @npub1sg6…f63m

2023-12-14 23:25:13

@npub1ds3…hzcn @npub1sg6…f63m @npub1zvr…vf63 can you guys kindly look into the issues with offers right now on cash app? 3 transactions in a row didn’t activate. I pre-activated and made sure they weren’t used in the last 24 hours / 7 days. I’ve never had these issues before. I’m going to pause on using it until it’s resolved.

Totally agree but that’s why they created Bitkey. To bring in non-technical people. The challenge is no matter what - bitcoiners continue to push only highly highly technical ways to do things and disregard the less technical ways of doing things.

Good to hear. I think that’s the right move. Will you have a preview of the app this year?

2023-09-07 14:59:06

@npub1yk3…yya6 can you shed some light on the Bitkey app? Will it be installable via app stores or only as an WBA? Or both.
I think the pro to having it installable via app stores is:
-the public will have a higher trust level with downloading it (right or wrong, that’s the world we live in today)
-it may prompt organic growth through the visibility the app stores provide
There’s obviously some cons to this as well but curious as to what you and the team are thinking here.

@npub1yk3…yya6 how is the public beta going? I’m curious to hear what you’ve learned so far, changed, or realized as a result of the testing.

Do you think it’s the least understood business line due to the smaller amount of other public companies exploring it? It may help to explain how Block can benefit financially from the network.
The world has grown knowing a walled garden type style of business and this is the complete opposite. It may be hard to understand how that turns into benefiting a public company.

Out of Block, which product line, service, or feature are you most excited about?

Can you guys please fix the issue of having me to re-add some of my music? I think when the team changes data on the backend for the song it gives me an error of ‘The Record Label does not permit streaming of this track’ but the song is still available in Tidal’s inventory. It grays out the song and I have to re-add.

2023-07-25 14:21:33

@npub1yk3…yya6 @npub1lxw…aare you still on target to announce those selected for the beta by the end of July? Eager to hear if I’ve been selected.

2023-07-23 17:49:51

@npub1sg6…f63m if Elon is getting rid of the Twitter branding could you just create a nostr based platform with a re-brand of the Twitter name?

Can you share some thoughts on how this will be bringing mining to the masses or will this be discussed in
an upcoming post? Separately, how does this work for Block? Block uses hardware as a loss-leader, is the intention that this will change?

It’s completely unusable - was my #1 app used for the last 7 years, now nothing. I’ll most likely deactivate if this isn’t reversed.

I couldn’t agree more - product looks great so far 🤙. Keep up all of the great work.

People need to understand that to get mass adoption, these products can’t be overly technical or even miss out on functionality that less hardcore users want. I really hope you don’t stray too far based on feedback from a small group of highly technical people.

Maybe?

Just out of curiosity, did the reaction to Bitkey’s beta exceed your expectations? #[0] #[1]

Is Tidal growing in the way you had expected? I feel like you could do some interesting tie-ins to the other parts of Block:
1. Reoccurring Cash App Boost for Tidal subscriptions
2. Integration to Square Sellers for music within the physical locations and controls within the POS system
3. Purchase a product like SONOS and develop in-house chips similar to the mining solutions you are developing

What did he say? I’m going to replay it tonight but now curious.

No Sonos? One of the best products in the world.

Will this be for individual use as well vs. just enterprise? I think that’s a massive step to bringing mining to the masses.

2023-04-28 16:52:01

That’s fantastic. Will these be targeted for individual use as well? I.e. ready out of the box, mining through a friendly-consumer facing UI or only enterprise? I think individual could be useful for mass adoption.

Just to be clear - you’ll be selling units with Intel’s chips and then later will be selling units with Block’s in-home built chips?

FIs need to be careful with high volume, low margin businesses. Typically comes with heavy regulatory scrutiny and oversight with minimal gains to the P&L.

Just more motivation for the team! Bought more shares in the AM.

Will there be a miner that any average person can buy built by Block? I think that’s massive to scaling BTC.

2023-02-20 16:49:21

#[0] Block’s job posts have “crypto” in it, why not just use Bitcoin?

2023-02-16 22:48:49

#[0] no update on Block’s hardware wallet since Nov. - any update you can share?
