So this is like paying for things in countries across #SouthEastAsia with apps like Grab, I assume? If this is so, this is VERY cool. I mean I believe we've been doing this for some time - like it you go to #China you pay things via #Alipay.
I remember in the past, stressing if I can get enough cash in foreign countries when I go abroad for work, or whether my credit card will be accepted.
Periodic reminder that if you ditch the zero-trust part, if you admit that trust matters even a tiny bit, you can ditch the consensus algorithm and run the entire blockchain exercise on one shitty five year old Android phone. A firstgen raspberry pi would be overkill. Seven transactions per second wouldn’t have stretched a 486 on dial-up in 1996 and the whole stack is an embarrassment.

Whilst having the ability to accept #AliPay or #WeChatPay is a nice add-on for some asian takeout place in Germany, you basically can't survive as a business in the "P.R." China without...
Same goes with #B2B: Don't even bother trying that in Germany without a proper Bank Account because that'll make it de-facto illegal to do anything like paying employees..n
Why would anyone want to use #TornadoCash on #Ethereum / #ETH, which is written in the systemically unsafe Programming Language that is #Solidity when #Monero :monero: / #XMR exists?
