Creation of multiple BTC accounts is not supported

[mapoulin]

Hi Brian,

First of all, thanks for sharing this project. It's a great idea and I wanted to include it into our @pleo-io organization. It looks like a great way to implement Google's Peer Bonus motivation principle.

I've managed to update the dependencies and make the bot runnable. However, once I tried to run my first tip, I got hit by an error from the Coinbase API.

Creation of multiple BTC accounts is not supported

I assume the feature got deprecated, is there any other way to achieve the same result while keeping the Coinbase backend?

Thanks,
Marc

Any update here @barmstrong?

I'm sure you know better than most that the time has come for this to be a thing on a regulatory front, a political front, and a practical front.

I say do it in an official (non-hackathon) way and let the extra cash flow flood in. Many communities need a chat native financial layer they trust. Mainly so they stop getting gouged by payment processors and freelance killing leechers pretending to be a community marketplace.

Let's just make chat platforms our globally connected community marketplace layer.

This was premature before but this same idea with USDC in Slack and Discord would onboard millions as you envisioned before and they would never know they were using crypto.

This would be that friendly welcome mat the world needs. It also brings crypto to where the people are instead of bringing people to where crypto is.

If the main concern is regulatory (Which I get better than most) then just force KYC for anything over a certain amount and add tiered milestones to limit that user friction. Then you could use it as an educational tool and slowly introduce them to everything with educational resources that slowly onboard them with 'Did you know' bot messages.

This is low hanging fruit...
