Any sort of M.O.M that accepts e-transfer probably has a shell corporation with a fake virtual office, fake website, etc. Because if you accept a ton of Interac e-transfers from randos, the bank is going to come calling. I have had a couple bank accounts terminated for selling and cashing out crypto-currency. If they'll shut you off over bitcoin (which is also legal but a money laundering risk. This is what the banks use to justify their crack down on crypto), they'll definitely shut you off over weed.
Corporations like Shakepay and Coinsquare have deep pockets for MSB licenses so they are able to transact in large volumes with banks without risking termination like I did. Government regulation of fintech (especially crypto-currency) is such that you need deep pockets to be granted a MSB license. Leading to only a handful of major players in the market. In fact Coinsquare was even fined like a million dollars for each top executive recently. This is what you get with excessive government regulation of the economy.
Becoming an entrepreneur turned me into more of a libertarian. I care about the poor. But the government does more harm than good with regulation. I'm fine with taxation if the money was spent efficiently to deal with problems like poverty. The average federal government employee has like a $113,000 salary or some shit ffs. This is not redistribution towards the poor.
