summary
Founders describe being debanked after a raise, applied to 60 banks and spending two months offline while investors get funds returned; one game company reports 250,000 on waitlist and 1,500 active users. Technical fixes include feature flag everything down to a per-user toggle to avoid reengineering. Regulatory specifics: money transmitter laws and state-by-state MSB burdens, prefer non‑custodial designs to reduce licensing pain, and push for federal clarity and coordinated industry lobbying.
