Sorry, I forgot to mention that the check option is US only for now. I'm not sure we could post a photo of the check, but that's a very interesting idea to consider.
I though people from the U.S. cannot trade National Currency yet?
Why won't you send the check abroad? Envelope stamp doesn't cost that much. IRS sent me check to Europe with tax refunds without problem last year
Please implement this check scanning option. That would make everything really easier.
As far as I know almost all the big U.S. banks have this check scanning feature built in their smartphone apps.
And there can be a button to destroy the check, after it has been successfully deposited.
We've had national currency trading from the beginning in a few US states. From the OP: "In most US states, including California and New York, we offer no services. In some US states we offer Digital Currency <-> Digital Currency trading. In fewer US states we offer DC <-> National Currency trading."
We're only doing checks for US right now because it turned out our current USD bank can't do ACH (or any cheap wire withdrawal option). It's totally manual right now, so we don't want to open it up beyond the US yet. Your idea with scanning the checks is really interesting, so we'll consider whether we can do that for everybody, but it isn't something we can do right away. At the very least, the whole process would have to be automated, and that means development time.
