In this thread you've accused the founder of Plaid multiple times of lying, without evidence, and most importantly, your account was made only 1 hour ago.

You've said "Stop lying bro.", "hella sus", "This is 100% a lie", "seems suspect", all without evidence.

You seem to have some ulterior motive here that you haven't disclosed. Maybe you're right about everything, but it comes across poorly.

This is false. Hundreds of banks have built out api's on plaid exchange: https://plaid.com/plaid-exchange/

Yeah, at this point the majority of API requests that Plaid fulfills are filled with data provisioned from institutions via an API. I assume that OP was only looking at named banks who we did press releases with (e.g. Chase, Wells Fargo, Capital One) but there are many more financial institutions we have API integrations with beyond that, either via Plaid Exchange or via their own APIs.

It's not a good luck for Stripe to have one of its employees astroturfing the competition.
