Requires a large deposit with low APR… Requires a large deposit with low APR that was not as competitive as the other industry leaders. In the end, it still stumbled alongside the others. It trusted companies that over leveraged and that did not do it any favors.

Absolutely awful company Absolutely awful company. Today, BlockFi informed users that they would no longer offer free withdrawals on the Ethereum ecosystem. BlockFi intentionally did this right before the thanksgiving holiday, with only 7 days to go before this change goes into effect. Customers who have already used their one free withdrawal this month are essentially blindsided, and their crypto is now trapped, unable to be moved without fees. This intentional disrespect of the customer shows what a scummy company they are. They might as well be saying "F you" to the little guys who have made a hundred bucks in interest this year. Now ETH withdrawals will cost over 60$ USD, which is 3X the average current ETH gas fee cost of 20$ USD. Do not use this company. They are exploitative, money-hungry, and don't give a damn about their customers.

Avoid 60$ to withdraw ETH!?! No thanks, Ill pass. All other similar companies have like 10$ fee. Free monthly withdrawal limited to just few coins. Interest rates going only one-way down. Avoid.

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.

Waiting for my refunds… On March 21st, 2022 I Barbara D. Walker wired $143,185.64 to my blockchain and they closed my account. I’m under the impression the team did this to use my funds to invest because to this day March 30, 2022 they still have not returned my funds back into my bank account. I’ve repeatedly contacted them, they are avoiding my emails. Marcus promised my funds was forthcoming within 5 business days on March 21, 2022 and nothing has happened yet. I am waiting for my funds to be returned.
