      Yep. Just because one side is bad, it doesn’t mean the other is any good.

      Cryptocurrency is still dependent of a pyramid scheme and criminals-enabling. Credit card companies are still a private owned government branch with no concern for human rights and criminals-enabling.

        I learned recently FedNow is a payment processor ran by the Federal Reserve, with a fee of $0.043 per transaction. Making it much, much cheaper than every other payment processor out there.

        It just launched two years ago; I’m wondering if this might become more of a thing moving forward for digital payments.
