At least for me it's taking a bit to fully unravel what is actually going on, and whether or not there is any validity to the claim. The linked article is fairly long, and even it doesn't have all of the context.

Collateral is sold off automatically once they breach some threshold (varies, but it's always > 100%), and there are bots that compete to do this as quickly as possible. This is in no means perfect, but it is quite responsive, and d

My understanding was that wires were quite difficult to reverse, and it's ACH transfers that can be reversed. Regardless, the reversibility aspect has both positives and negatives. It does allow you to reverse transactions, but with th

Echoing GP, I also do not find sending crypto to be all that nerve wracking. I frankly find sending a wire to be a lot more stressful (since I understand it a lot less well).
