My hope is that Chase will encourage early sign ups and forego 5/24, especially since the kind of people who sign up for it right away will be the type to recommend it to their friends. The perks on the card will keep users from canceling after AF, and by the 2nd year rolls around, they will either begin to nerf the card or start enforcing 5/24 so as to keep users from churning bonuses

(I'm kind of delusional though)
