SoFi & Lightspark: Lightning-Fast Money Moves!

Behold! SoFi (NASDAQ: SOFI) has unveiled a grand new scheme to send cash across the globe with the swiftness of a prairie dog on a skateboard, all while charging less than your average bank-though we all know banks are as reliable as a squirrel with a wallet. 🐿️💸

The service will harness the arcane powers of Lightspark, a mystical entity that whispers secrets of the Bitcoin Lightning Network and Universal Money Address (UMA) to make transactions flow like a river of gold. Sofi aims to be the first U.S. bank to dabble in blockchain, which is about as thrilling as watching paint dry-unless you’re into that sort of thing. ⚡🌍 The service will initially cater to transfers to Mexico, with plans to expand to other nations, presumably after they’ve finished their coffee.
