Hey guys just wondering what you all like to use besides a CEX for onboarding from a bank account into Stables onchain? Spritz, EtherFi, what else is out there with a good reputation?

Does anyone use puts (options) or another tool as insurance in case of deep drawdown, flash crash, or black swan event? Any suggests or platforms to use? Currently I employ simple DeFi on Aave and Uniswap V3 joined to learn more. Thanks

After the flash crash this afternoon, I know this may be extremely difficult so I want to make myself available to support anyone who feels like they may need it. This is private and will not be recorded or shared with anyone for any reason. My positions held up just fine and I'm thinking about buying more ETH and other assets right now. The hedges worked. No liquidations, just a big scary red candle and a ton of volatility. Creating a plan and sticking to it works. Here's my calendar link: https://calendly.com/hello-defiuniversity/15-minute-check-in

He’s saying that moving your BTC into a wrapped version is not a taxable event. I’ve not found anything else yet to corroborate or contradict.
