Over at the CCN, Gab is having trouble even getting its bitcoin on.
The declaration by free speech social network Gab that the firm was still allowed on Square’s bitcoin-friendly Cash App after being banned on other platforms may have been premature.
This emerged after the social media platform that is occasionally referred to as “alt-right Twitter,” over its popularity with extremist right-wingers, disclosed that the personal Square Cash account of the firm’s founder and CEO, Andrew Torba, had been deactivated.
Things like this are just bad for business.
Earlier this month as CCN reported, Gab had posted a tweet that gave the impression that Square’s Cash App — which allows users to buy and sell bitcoin — had reactivated Gab’s access. According to Breaker magazine, Square might have unknowingly reactivated an account belonging to Gab but will continue to “pro-actively delete any new accounts that it learned were connected with Gab.”
[...] Besides Square, other platforms that have banned Gab in the recent past include cryptocurrency exchange Coinbase, online payment processing firm Stripe, bitcoin payment service provider BitPay and online payments system PayPal.
Currently, bitcoin, as well as money orders and checks sent to its post office address, are the only ways for Gab to process payments for its premium service, GabPro. On January 8, Gab announced that it had integrated with open-source crypto payment processor BTCPay Server.

A particularly ignorant and stupid asshole, entitle by the fact that he is >>, meaning Polack, not really an American at all, but spawn of anchor babies dropped by Babuskas in order to dilute the pure white (WASP) American blood! Bloody Catholic Slavs! With their stupid ideas and voting for anyone with a D in front of their name in Chicago. No need to apologize, Runaway the American Asshole, you just need to shut up, because you are not entitled to an audience. Especially since you are terribly ignorant, and old, and rural, and stupid, and thus have nothing to contribute to the conversation. So, squeal like a pig, Runaway! You sure have purty lips!

Why do you attempt to be anonymous? It doesn't work. Seriously, make an effort here. Try to understand how and why your posts are so very distinctive, and then swap things up a little now and then. Unless, of course, senility is setting in, and you are incapable of a little analysis.

Why is who trying to be anonymous, Runaway! Have you been reduced to trolling yourself, just so you will have someone to talk to? Seems legit!

There are at least two socialist-tending ACs in this discussion. You seem frustrated, perhaps because your attempts to fit the history of the last few centuries into a simplistic mytho-macho narrative is insufficient.

Runaway, part of the "We made America Suck, Again" Generation. You have my condolences, Runaway. Better luck in your next life, when your karma catches up with you.
