I would say using Venmo is different but the idea that a social network could be built around a p2p payment service works surprisingly better than it has any right to.

It's the idea that P2P payments are PUBLIC BY DEFAULT on "social media" platform and what that says about people's idea of what privacy is.

I don't disagree but at the same time it's one setting away to make them all private forever. It could be much worse.
