Marriage is only monogamous if not registered with the state

And who decides if something is consensual? A jury? Now they're making us have sex with multiple people at once?

How is that monogamous???

Fortress is making Swan customers pay an "admin fee"

See the recent email from Swan, below.

> On or around November 22, Fortress charged Swan Personal and Entity accounts an “admin fee” for exiting to new platforms. The fee ranged from $0 up to $125 per account, deducted in USD or Bitcoin depending on account balances.

> Swan does not control this fee and does not support Fortress Trust’s decision to impose it. Swan is actively disputing this “admin fee,” as we believe it is not in compliance with your Terms of Service agreement with Fortress.

> In the meantime, Swan has your back, as always. As a thank you for being with Swan, we are covering your Bitcoin buy fees, up to 2x the Fortress “admin fee,” in the first half of 2025.

> For example, if Fortress took $125 from your account, Swan will cover up to $250 of your purchase fees from January to June 2025.

> The Fortress "admin fee" will be reflected in the account history of your Swan dashboard soon. If you have questions or complaints regarding the fee, we encourage you to contact Fortress directly at support@fortresstrust.com.

Will Trump create the strategic Bitcoin reserve?

This would be a **public** strategic Bitcoin reserve. It's highly unlikely that the US holds no bitcoin.
