“If it involves money. It’ll be on our platform. Money or securities or whatever. So, it’s not just like send $20 to my friend. I’m talking about, like, you won’t need a bank account.”

I dunno, it has 200M active users, doesn’t it? Wouldn’t surprise me if “free bank” popped up in their face a few times a week with “free transfers” and “guaranteed best interest rates”.
For parts of the world ‘free bank’ and ‘free transfers’ are just the norm anyway. I’m amazed it isn’t the case in the US already.
They still use paychecks…
What is the alternative to a paycheck? Most Americans get the money deposited directly to their bank account anyway, there’s no actual paper check involved.

But I suppose even if the real number is a fraction of that 200M, it’s still a huge number of users.
Before I deleted I had 20 followers, and 15 being bots
