Well, hey there, Freaks. It's your boy Marty here to introduce this week's sponsor. You already

0:04.9

know all about them. This week's episode of Tales from the Crypt is brought to you by the cash app,

0:09.8

the number one app in the finance store, excuse me, in the finance section of the app store for the last two years.

0:16.4

The first P2P payments app to let you freaks buy Bitcoin. And now they're also letting you

0:22.8

withdraw and deposit Bitcoin on their app. On top of that, they're rolling out Beck 32

0:28.2

compatibility. So if you're looking to send straight to Wasabi or to another Beck 32 address,

0:35.9

you can do that. It's starting to happen for users.

0:39.1

I imagine it'll be rolled out for everybody.

0:41.5

Eventually, on top of that, they have their boost program, which allows you to customize

0:46.3

a debit card.

0:47.6

When you load up your cash app, your debit card is associated with cashback deals at

0:52.6

merchants like Whole Foods, any local coffee shop. I believe I saw

0:57.2

DoorDash on there, Popeyes is on there, a bunch of others are always adding. And of course,

1:03.3

you can always use that savings to stack SATs. And while you're stacking stats, you should spread

1:08.9

the word and tell your friends that have not downloaded cash app yet to use the promo code stacking sats.

1:14.7

And they'll get $5 upon download.

1:17.1

Then Square is going to give $5 to Al's LaC, a charity very near and dear to our heart here at TFTC.

1:24.5
