I don't think it can be called cash since no one is going to accept it.

Like it's so stupid, even if the other person were to accept bitcoin or whatever they'll still need to verify if the address contains crypto or not and whether the private key is valid (both of which needs internet access on some electronic device).

    I pull out my $100 satcard™️ and hand it to the cashier.

    He apologizes, and tells me it's only worth $80.

    I ask him to check again - there's no way!

    "$60 now", he says.

      Have fun being poor. When BoobaCum replaces FIAT currency in 2023, I'm going to get rich quick while you peasants continue to eat mud.

    This is worse then cash, you as a business owner would have to wait who know how long to get your transactions to compile into one wallet and then pay your bills, with really tight margins like a restaurant you might just go bankrupt waiting for crypto to clear, omfg these people 🙄. Not even mentioning the floating value could fuck you over, having a floating price point for cash that works in hours is insane and we moved away from this for a reason. Not to even mention the fuckkkkkkkkking ability to double spend holy mother of :hasan-smash: unlimited genoside for cringo currency owners. :cryptocurrency:

    Proves how fucking silly crypto is when he has to send 0.006 of it to get a nice normal gift card number like 100$, and its not even gonna stay like that anyways.

    Love to have to pull up an app to check what my 0.000000000173 bitcoin gift card is worth in this one second so I can figure out if I afford pizza or not.

    Lol, they reinvented certified bank drafts which are barely even used anymore since you can transfer money online so much easier and more securely.

      If they wanted it to be treated as cash, they'd denominate it in satoshis printed on the card, with a prominent qr code for easy scanning of the wallet address.
