No, the current financial system requires closed source software. Help change it by supporting crypto.
I'm not against crypto. It's just not that usable for everyday transactions like at the grocery store
Yeah, i get ya. Though i have been buying groceries with crypto for half a year now. I would have starved to death if i hadnt figured it out.
... HOW. Teach us the dark arts
Giftcard services such as coinsbee or coincards
thats not really using crypto... it's more like indirect crypto usage. You can also just buy giftcards with cash... fail to see your point...
Yes, but for now that is the only way. I do buy what i can directly though. I drink gratuitas coffee which is purchased directly with monero and not with a giftcard service. As more merchants accept crypto directly i will be very happy.
