There’s a bit of chat here: [📰...fintech’s days are numbered + Using Monzo as a verb](https://community.monzo.com/t/newspaper-fintech-s-days-are-numbered-using-monzo-as-a-verb/32772)

But more recently we were talking about it over here:

> I think in lots of places that’s true. But - for now - there are still lots of folk who still haven’t heard about Monzo. cry What I find particularly impressive, though, is that Monzo has been “verbed” super fast. It’s not uncommon for folk to talk about monzoing cash over, or asking someone to monzo them!

Here’s a challenge to the new Coral Crew - can you tidy up / make sense of these divergent threads?! 😜
