I want to work for Strike

Ben, I want to send $100.00 to my friend using strike lightning .. Because it's a larger amount, can I do it or is it too large an amount?

@@swedishmanguy shouldn't be a problem as long as they also have a lightning wallet!

Send strike referral code please 👏

Do we know when this will happen for us?

How did that work for you and what wallet are you using? If I may ask..

That’s what I was looking for

collect 50+ BITCOIN

from my

Sending peer to peer via Strike is free, but you are openly interoperable with any lightning or on-chain Bitcoin wallet. Unsure how this stacks up against Venmo, but I believe they are more of a walled garden. To be honest, I think Venmo/Paypal and other payments platforms will have to adopt this standard if they want to stay competitive.

@@BTCSessions what if i want to send around 50 dollars from coinbase to strike. i cant chose precisely 50 dollars what it arrive 50.23 cents worth of bitcoin. or i can put any number to generate the receving btc adress

I have the same question

I'm not entirely sure, but right now Jack Mallers' priority is helping the people of El Salvador with remittances. I suspect sometime this year though, along with Europe.

The difference here is that this is interoperable with non custodial lightning wallets, meaning there is zero friction moving from one platform to another. It is all using real Bitcoin, which is on the blockchain. Lightning payments are Bitcoin in payment channels, with pre- signed settlement payments exchanged that can be settled on chain by either party at any time with no risk of fund loss. I do not think that scaling on-chain is in any way sustainable long term if you want to keep access to running a node accessible, and thus decentralized. This is not just a storage issue, but also a latency issue - being able to simultaneously download and upload all the world's transactions in real time and maintain consensus worldwide would eventually require data transfer faster than the speed of light. Even taking a step back, if we go the route of only large data centers running nodes... Then why use a blockchain at all? In short, layered scaling and having low value transactions as data separate from the main chain makes the most sense and enables lots of other great features, communications networks and smart contacts to be built on top of Bitcoin.

If you just want to receive/hold BTC then Strike won't be useful for you. However if you have a need to hold dollars and receive international payments then it's great. You can also buy BTC via the app by funding with dollars from a bank account, then sending direct to a BTC wallet like Blue. This will incur effectively zero fees.

@@BTCSessions ok, thx!

I suspect people will find ways to access if a jurisdiction decides to ban it from the app store. That said, you are right that it's not currently available in every country yet. Current focus is US/El Salvador remittances.

Strike takes care of the conversion, but in a really smart way, so you get better rate than anyone else offers. When you send USD to EUR, it immediately converts it into Bitcoin on exchange, sends the Bitcoin over their lightning channel to their node physically in Europe and there they immediately convert BTC to EUR on exchange and add it to the European strike user.

Now… only if I could use it in Hawaii. :-(

@@2much2see2 If only I could use it in Europe!

Working on that ASAP 😊

@@BTCSessions thank you very much my friend, I will share it everywhere here in El Salvador

Love the idea, but wish strike would make their app a bit more user friendly. Shouldn't be so difficult for people to locate their bitcoin receiving wallet address.

Did you get verified? if you did how much time did it take?

I guess you could send BTC to it?

@Old Hoadley yup, this was the case. It will be available in other jurisdictions soon, but I really wanted to get something out so those in El Salvador have something to learn from in the mean time :)

When you're in strike you're holding dollars. They never hold Bitcoin for you, and anything coming into the app is instantly converted. This means there's nothing to report within the app itself.

@@BTCSessions but if I send bitcoin to my own wallet for buying purposes from usd ? Would Strike need to report large buys? Intriguing

@@mmhodler5753 limits per week are below the anti money laundering threshold. In terms of if you sell later at a gain/loss that would be up to the individual to track. Strike uses bitcoin as a payment rail, not a speculative asset.

@@BTCSessions thanks. I like it

where in the whole video was tether mentioned? what are you on about?

@@cxrk5 Tether wasn't mentioned in this video.

@@jimmybrad156 Exactly.... your original comment was about Strike relying on teather....

Tether is/was only used temporarily. Strike wants to get rid of it.

The scammers inject fud to distract readers from the main content. If Bens logo isn’t colored in grey, it’s bogus. You tube is over run with these thieves.
