a decent rate by Building Society standards.. but at least double available on stablecoins nowadays, and 6%+ on bitcoin suits me nicely.

correct pab. no point starting a discussion you got yourself into a corner on again though ;)

my broad point would be that cash isn't the place to be. but for those determined to do so, the best rate on cash is the way to go.

for the long-term 'baggers amongst us there's an argument that we should eek out the best rates from all of the building/friendly societies and mutual insurers, but a simple c£100 in the Skipton works for me.

Not in a corner. Just bored with it.

consistently making incorrect statements would get boring, yet you're happy to resurrect :problem:

anyway, are you opening one of these accounts Sarah?
