Thanks!

While we want to have constructive conversations with some of these governments (I actually believe it's possible), ultimately we can't stop hostility / regulations against crypto. What we can do is offer our service and be transparent about what it is — and then users in those countries can make decisions for themselves about whether they can/should engage.

I'm hopeful, however, seeing countries like Turkey and a couple in LatAm that have significant crypto adoption without overt government hostility — when adoption reaches a critical mass, I expect to see more governments relax restrictions.

If a government in a country you operate in explicitly makes services like yours illegal for people to use, will you stop operating in that country?
Please answer this question, the response is phrased like a yes without explicitly saying it.
