Just wondered why it’s called Trading 212. Is the 212 meant to be read as “to want to” or something? Or are they just random figures with no significance.

The telephone area code of Wall Street in the US is 212. Hence the name, Trading212.

I prefer my version :joy: [image]

It’s actually because water boils at 212°F and everyone at Trading 212 is always steaming :beers:

How can one get his hands on this beauty?

Water boils at 100 C. Imperial system is for morons.

I’ve never heard of a scientist called Kevin.

Why is it called "212"?

It’s because of a perfume also named 212, it’s mandatory to all employees to use it.

What does "212" mean?
