I Love BlockFi I love BlockFi. It's the perfect place for me to hold my crypto investments and personal savings. I'm literally earning more money for doing things that I would've done anyways without the existence of BlockFi. I can't stop talking about my BlockFi interest account and credit card to my family and friends. I know they're sick of my ish by now. I've referred 8 people in the 3.5 months I've had my account open. The financial results speak for themselves.

SCAMMERS! SCAMMERS! I put 3000 dollars 2 years ago and they went "bankrupt" and now its impossible to get the money back. They keep sending me ridiculous emails like there will be some kind of reimbursement and it has been going on for over a year. At least don't add insult to injury. FILTHY LIARS!!!

VERY expensive withdrawal I noticed that the withdrawal fee for many cryptocurrencies are about $50 USD, such as GUSD, PAX, USDT, USDC. It's free to add money but withdrawals are way too expensive. Fiat minimum withdrawal is also $10,000 which is too high and the advertising on their website does not mention all this. Not great, especially when the minimum deposit is just $100. This was not detailed very clearly when we signed up, so you need to be careful. Even free withdrawals have some form of transaction fee tied to them, even though I've not initiated any other transactions in that calendar month.

BlockFi is more of a bank than a crypto company - weigh your needs carefully before signing up Overall the onboarding process was pretty simple. They use Plaid for banking verification, which can be problematic (although has improved over time). Yields are good on stablecoins. IR is fairly responsive, albeit utterly unable to think creatively. But, I ended up pulling my funds from BF for the following reasons: 1) OUTBOUND wallet-to-wallet transfers take up to 5 days. BF claims the delay is for security purposes. This 'friction' not only is terribly frustrating but more so just goes against the whole spirit of crypto. This became the proverbial 'final straw' for me. 2) unnecessary and long holds are placed on, both, wallet transfers of stablecoin INTO BF and for ACH transfers of USD. Again, anomlyous to the spirit of crypto. 3) only a handful of coins offered. Net net..BlockFi operates more like a bank (without any FDIC protection) rather than a crypto company. And, we shall see how long they can support the yield.

They are hiding they’re illiquid They are hiding they’re illiquid. I've already got my money out and this is my advice: Be smart, do not risk your whole bag for a few days of 5% APY. Withdraw your crypto TODAY, because they’re practically locking them until Tuesday when it will likely be too late or they’ll come up with another excuse to keep them.
