    I'm not surprised that it's only 5%. I think it's worth keeping in mind that this is a cryptocurrency company and so that already are within a culture that has strong libertarian l…

    Some older usb-c devices would start charging based on order of plugging in. i.e. plug the phone side in first and the phone will start charging your iPad. Seems the defaults are s…
