Using Cryptocurrency in Real Life

3 pointsby applgo443over 3 years ago
Why isn&#x27;t there a crypto debit card? Pay with your crypto at a restaurant instead of cash.<p>And why isn&#x27;t there &#x27;Pay with crypto&#x27; option for online purchases just like pay with visa&#x2F;master? Simply open your metamask, select a token and instantly pay.<p>What am I missing here?<p>For people citing GAS, sure. Use SOL&#x2F;Matic. GAS isn&#x27;t an issue here.

I don&#x27;t think most people care about actually using their crypto.<p>At least none of the persons that i know that bought some.<p>( I personally sold all before December 2017 @18k . Wouldn&#x27;t have done it then and i don&#x27;t see what would have changed).<p>I think what you are missing is they you&#x27;re ( potentially) to vested in it. At least that would be the default observation for many people.
