We got debanked.
So our banks were shutting our accounts.
We're like, what's going on, right?
Ad accounts.
So Facebook was shutting us down.
YouTube was shutting us down.
So it was literally impossible to do anything.
And the reason why is because, and we learned that way later, you have Mark Anderson, one of the co-founders of Anderson Horowitz, that went on Joe Rogan's podcast, you know, show.
And he explained that actually Biden's administration
had decided to shadow ban the crypto industry, meaning there's no official law.
There's nothing that has been put out there that is not allowed.
But they went to banks and they went to service providers and payment processes and anything that is essential for a business to grow.
And they told them if there's anything linked to the word crypto, you shut it down.
But there was nothing to fight against.
There's no proof.
There's nothing you can do.
You just get canceled.
And so for the first six months, they literally, Stripe refunded, I remember, $50,000 to our customers, our first customers.
And our customers sent emails to Stripe saying, hey, I don't want to be refunded.
I love the service.
