You said it's "certainly not possible to do so" so I'm curious as to what counts by your view. The way you said it implies that other people must necessarily reach a conclusion that largely agrees with you.

What counts as morally legitimate?

Inequality by itself doesn't cause bad safety. the following countries have a higher share of wealth controlled by the top 10% than vietnam and also a lower homicide rate: singapore, uae, switzerland, sweden, qatar. that's just off a very quick search i'm sure there are more. Certainly in none of those countries are people hunkering down in private fortified castles for fear of stepping out in public.

Easy practical definition: something you couldn't make in your own kitchen no matter how good of a chef you were. eg you could can beans, you couldn't make a poptart.

What happens if you lose all your hardware factors (eg if you have a home fire)? Are you just locked out of all your accounts with this approach?

I used to use tower, but I switched to fork for two reasons - it was more performant with my work monorepo, and fork's a one time payment and tower's an annual subscription (and more expensive). I'm not affiliated with them at all but I'm a happy customer and recommend you give it a shot; they have a free trial.

This looks really cool! Any plans to offer one time payment as an alternative to subscriptions? Also heads up clicking login on your main website didn't work for me - I had to use signup to go to app.notesnook.com and then switch to the login modal

Not quite - it seems like when you deposit cash, some up to all of it is made available immediately for trading if you're on the default account settings. My guess is that most users believe that when they buy stocks with this money, they think it is cash when it is in fact margin, and these are the people who got margin called.
