Anyone have experience using Blockfi? Thinking about using it as a high yield savings account. I’m also thinking about using it for exposure to Bitcoin. I don’t plan on putting all my savings in Blockfi since it’s not insured, but maybe everything in excess of my 6month emergency fund.

I love it. Regret not doing it sooner. I moved everything from my HYSA here several months back. Happy to send a referral if interested.

I second this. Wish I’d done it sooner!

Anyone in here have general anxiety disorder and/or agoraphobia? I started having symptoms at the beginning of the pandemic 😞 I used to LOVE being in the office although I had the option to work remotely. Then I literally couldn’t be anywhere outside of my bedroom let alone my house. I’ve come a long way with therapy and meds and I’m trying to convince myself that I can look for on-site EA roles but I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t scared.

Guessing I should still leave the down payment in a HYSA (getting 3% right now)? Sucks to miss out on market returns, but I understand that conventional wisdom is not to invest money you'll need in the short term (within 3ish years). I'm definitely tempted to put a portion of that in VTI though...
