No I can’t. I go to a supermarket and I can pay with my local currency and that’s it.
I go to local restaurants and I can pay with my local currency and that’s it.
I go to my barbers and I can pay with my local currency and that’s it.
I go to a pub and I can pay with my local currency and that’s it.
I pay my energy bills and I can pay with my local currency and that’s it.
I pay my ISP bills and I can pay with my local currency and that’s it.
I go to a car wash and I can pay with my local currency and that’s it.
I pay taxes and I can pay with my local currency and that’s it.
Etc.
Places don’t accept crypto. Crypto isn’t used as a currency for the vast vast vast majority of people who hold crypto, nevermind society as a whole.
Look, I get you’re a massive cryptobro, crypto is your life, you have a little tramp stamp of the bitcoin logo on your lower back, you speak to people about how any day now the real currencies are gonna die and crypto will take over, trust me bro™. But the real world is different to the one that appears to exist in your head.
Look at you, confident that digital currency is fundamentally different than…digital currency.
Look at you, being a smarmy cunt and putting words in my mouth I’ve never said.
The issue with crypto as a currency isn’t that it’s digital, it’s that it’s literally not a currency. That’s what makes them different.
So yeah, using a bank card and paying with real money is very different to trying to use a digital “currency” and not be able to live because nowhere will touch it.
Never heard of whole foods. You shouldn’t assume people are from wherever you’re from. I’m guessing it’s a food shop?
But congratulations, you’ve named one company 🎉👏
You’ll note that I’ve been saying there’s practically nowhere that accepts crypto, not literally nowhere on planet earth. So well done on your strawman, but it doesn’t contradict what I’ve said at all.
People use crypto as a stock. Not a currency.
Widely accepted
Haha hahahahaha
HAHA HAHAHAHAHA HAHAHA
HAHAHAHA HAHAHAHA
AHAHAHA
HAHA HAHAHAHAHA
hahaha
ha
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
I’ll stick to using real money. If I called up my mortgage provider and said “oh I’m not going to be paying in £ anymore, but I can give you Monero!” I’d be evicted pretty damn quick. As would you if you paid any bills.
No, my argument is that it’s not really used as a currency, but treated like a stock. Which is true.
Even for the few people who intend to pay using it, the vast majority of places don’t accept it.
Now you’ve learned that at least 500 grocery stores do.
I’ll take your word for it, cryptobro. As I’ve stated, I haven’t heard of that retailer.
Have you heard of Microsoft?
Yup. But when I go on their site I don’t see any option of paying with crypto. I’ve tried the Windows/Office sites, as well as the Minecraft site that they obviously own.
Have you heard of AT&T? AMC theaters?
No and no.
You’re again assuming I’m from wherever you’re from. Almost certainly the US, as when people assume everyone knows about some random thing in their country, it’s usually an American.
Ok so I looked it up and apparently AT&T is an ISP. So I looked at mine. BT? No crypto. Virgin Media? No crypto. Sky? No crypto. EE? No crypto. Vodafone? No crypto.
For cinemas, Vue, Odeon, Cineworld all also don’t have crypto payments.
*Only a very small fraction of companies support them.
So in other words, you can’t use it as your currency day to day, like I’ve been saying.
And even those who do own it don’t use it that way anyway, like I’ve been saying.
Good boy. You’re finally coming around. Maybe one day we’ll get you to the point where you can move from velcro shoes to tying your own laces. Baby steps.
Cool. I’ll explain this to the person at the till next time I’m buying some milk, then I’m sure they’ll accept my dickbutt coin.
People are developing crypto as a gamble/investment. Not as a real currency.
And lol at you saying crypto is like debit/credit cards. It isn’t.
They probably won’t take such a disused currency.
But you can use more popular crypto to buy groceries, yes.
Look at you, confident that digital currency is fundamentally different than…digital currency.
No I can’t. I go to a supermarket and I can pay with my local currency and that’s it.
I go to local restaurants and I can pay with my local currency and that’s it.

You are confidently incorrect.
Being confidently incorrect still leaves you incorrect.
Whole Foods, this little chain you might not have heard about, accepts crypto.
You can choose not to use cryptocurrencies, but that doesn’t mean cryptocurrencies aren’t widely accepted.
Cryptocurrency is accepted in many places.
I’m being factual, you’re throwing a tantrum because you’re wrong.
Never heard of whole foods. You shouldn’t assume people are from wherever you’re from. I’m guessing it’s a food shop?

By all means, broadcast your ignorance in force.
Your argument is that grocery stores don’t accept cryptocurrency.
Now you’ve learned that at least 500 grocery stores do.
Microsoft accepts crypto. Have you heard of Microsoft? Or is the underside of your rock totally empty?
Have you heard of AT&T? AMC theaters?
How many more examples of your ignorance would you like?
No, my argument is that it’s not really used as a currency, but treated like a stock. Which is true.

Widely accepted indeed lmao
Yes, not literally every company globally accepts cryptocurrency yet, same as other currencies, but thousands of them do.
You’re learning!
That’s what’s important.
*Only a very small fraction of companies support them.
