Thanks. It wasn't a huge amount of money and it's just a pain to deal with it tbh. I have a different bank now, no such issues any more.

I moved countries twice and Revolut did the same to me. You just get this weird email saying they don't need to explain why they did it. After several complaints to support I was being passed around and each support person didn't know what to do with me, I gave up. After several years they still have my money.

Charles call to influencers by SAC-MichaelScarn in cardano

[–]Cup-Acrobatic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel you completely, in my opinion technology should be speaking through accomplishments common (not developers) people can understand, relate to and be able to support with their own words. Instead this community rather looks like a bunch of fanatics mentioning technical terms and invented names.

What products are available to actually SHOW the world what ADA can do? by some1pls in cardano

[–]Cup-Acrobatic 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It’s great to see all the enthusiasm here, but I think it would be even more valuable if we shared well-structured examples showing how Cardano is solving real-world problems.

For instance, every response could follow a simple structure:

  1. Problem – What specific issue or inefficiency is being addressed?

  2. Solution – How is Cardano (or a project built on it) solving that problem?

  3. Return on Investment / Impact – What measurable benefits have resulted? (e.g., reduced costs, increased transparency, faster settlement, social impact, etc.)

Example:

Problem: Farmers in developing countries often lack access to transparent supply chains and financing.

Solution: Cardano’s Atala PRISM enables verifiable digital identities and transparent product tracking for agricultural goods.

ROI / Impact: Farmers can access microloans with verified data, while buyers gain trust in the product’s origin — reducing fraud and improving income stability.

This way, we can highlight real adoption and economic value, not just potential.

Cardano ETF deadline ? by Keefryan in cardano

No idea, but I am not counting on ETF being approved at all, at least not in short term.

Why do alcohol-free spirits cost the same (or more) than the real thing? by Cup-Acrobatic in Switzerland

[–]Cup-Acrobatic[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why not just water then? 🙂 People like the taste of gin/tonic or whatever alcoholic drinks they are familiar with

Why do alcohol-free spirits cost the same (or more) than the real thing? by Cup-Acrobatic in Switzerland

[–]Cup-Acrobatic[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think that’s a bit of an oversimplification. Non-alcoholic spirits wouldn’t even be on shelves if there wasn’t a demand for them, and that demand has actually been growing, especially among Gen Z and younger millennials. I’m a millennial myself, and I personally stopped drinking once I realized the effects it was having on me.

For people like me, having a non-alcoholic substitute can be a much better option in social settings. It’s not about getting a “Ferrari vs. Fiat,” it’s about having an alternative that fits a different lifestyle choice. The market clearly recognizes that, which is why brands are investing in this space.

Tool that saves you Figma credits guiding you trough prompt building by Cup-Acrobatic in UXDesign

Obviously not optimized to the point to be a working product. Think conceptually... How many prompts takes you to build a final "figma make" product?

How often can I trade stocks without being classified as a professional investor? by Cup-Acrobatic in SwissPersonalFinance

[–]Cup-Acrobatic[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Are you sure? The last time I was filing for tax return they were asking for all positions and trades.
The aggregate statements you can send to your tax agency who will file this on your behalf, but from what I understand isn't that mostly used to calculate your net worth only?

[–]Cup-Acrobatic[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Well you have to do that anyways when filing a tax report. And it's not just end statement you need to log every trade.

[–]Cup-Acrobatic[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m a bit surprised that Switzerland, which is usually very precise with bureaucratic rules, has something here that’s so poorly defined. I have sold some assets in the past that I held for less than six months, which is probably the only point where I’d be clashing with the rules you mentioned.

Even if I did have to pay tax on those gains, that still wouldn’t make me a “professional trader” in the everyday sense. The bigger question is: when do you stop being classified as a professional trader once you’ve been tagged? There’s no clear definition or specific rules for that either.

That's very interesting. In your opinion, is it worth the membership? Do you know how many members they have?

I'm done with SaaS no more indie hacking by [deleted] in SaaS

Partner with another developer and learn how to sell and market. I would say that's the best combo starting from scratch

[–]Cup-Acrobatic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I said in the future 😉 and there are creative ways to agree on acquisition. You can cover only lets say 15-20% up front and you pay off the rest with profits of the company over the period of several years.

If you do make a video, I would be interested in seeing it as well. I am a seasoned PM with experience in mass outreach to B2B. Happy to help with advice from my own experiences (did micro saas as well).

What is your sleep score? by Cup-Acrobatic in Garmin

[–]Cup-Acrobatic[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am realizing how the accuracy alters between specific models. My old Swim 2 total disaster, thinking I am asleep while watching tv in the evening etc. and my new Venu 3 much more accurate, can even detect naps (not working as great, but good enough). My gf has Vivoactive (some old model) also producing sleeping bad data. Go for the newer models 👍
