#2I don't get it, seems like it is still using visa/MasterCard? Aren't they the ones at the root of most issues?

#3Great work! If you could implement a payment flow where payouts could be made in Crypto, that would be awesome. It is very difficult getting paid for my software, and I’m just a little software developer in Canada.
I don’t understand how you manage to maintain merchant accounts with the credit card vendors. It seems likely that they’ll shut you down, as soon as someone tries to fund a peaceful protest that goes against the elite’s allowed belief matrix (like the Canadian Trucker’s Convoy)?

#4That's a good company name. The broader the cancellations, the broader the emerging parallel economy. Every case of a corporation refusing a customer is an opportunity for another to accept. In a relatively free market you don't extinguish a sector by dividing it; that just generates targetted support.
Media is dividing along partisan lines and apparently payment processing is too. What else? How broad will the parallelism will become?
Companies like PayPal may incubate potential competitors in this way. PayPal is somewhat handicapping itself by accepting a smaller market, as if they had decided to cancel a particular race if that were legal.

#5> Cancel culture will not win
But what are they doing to actually prevent censorship?
This feels like an excuse to capitalize on the politically charged term of “cancel culture”.
My grift alert is blaring.

It at least bypasses Paypal and Venmo, recently in the news for banning Gays Against Groomers.

Payment processing.
edit: I have to say that I'm finding the replies unintelligible. The largest payment processors are banning organizations from receiving payments. This organization claims that they will not do that. Would that destroy censorship in the world, or keep Visa and Mastercard from banning people (or banning Parallel Economy themselves?) No. Does it stop censorship at your local high school paper? Also no.

#8Nice pivot.
I look forward to this "economy" stabilizing in the same way that Truth Social or Parler did - at about a tenth of the scale of their competition. Happy to let the pill-sellers and woke-fearers spend their money in their own little walled garden, well away from where I every have to hear about it (or be advertised to).

Really?

#10Submitted this, never heard of it before today. My big question is whether they'll accept Trans Communists With Guns Anti-TERF Squad, LLC as customers, or if it's a stunt.
