Yes it would not be legal if we didn't give you access. So there are protections there.

We can't support those unfortunately right now. Maybe in the future.

No these are different securities. I Bonds are very unique in how they are structured.

We don't make money really on I Bonds. User acquisition play.

Yeah we have very easy way to give you your TD account directly. If this were to happen, we would give access to everyone and ensure they received the information to take over their accounts.

Thanks for the feedback and thoughts. I guess those aspects of TD are nice, but if you ever make a mistake, they don't handle it gracefully.

1) Easier UI and management of your I Bonds. Treasury Direct has lots of issues and you'll likely end up having to call in and wait on hold for 2 hours with customer support at some point. Maybe not if you're on top of things, but most people aren't.

2) Having your money all in one place. It's annoying to have money different places, so if you already have a Yotta account with us, it's one tap to do this. If you are starting from scratch, it's not as much of a no-brainer, but I still think it's much better than TD.

If we go sideways, we would just give everyone their TD account information directly, and you would take over your account.

Didn't know pasting worked.

We do the latter. Performing actions as if we were you. I am not worried given that.

What do you mean exactly by ID? We do Series I Bonds.
