It's not a point you made before this, you just said it was "more secure" and "cheaper" without qualification. Now you're just trotting out 'coiner memes about the third world and Western Union.
(You can use Visa in 200 countries by the way)
Have a nice evening, I'm done here.
This was exactly my point. With pervasive crypto end users can assume this to a greater degree, whether you believe that appropriate or not.
Visa e.g. requires specialist terminal equipment, complicated issuer and acquirer and banking relationships and is heavily dependent on legal enforcement wherever you use it. Try using mastercard or visa in a third world country.
For “actual” money transfer, compare with western union where toure talking about ~10% fee.

Oh you’re a rude one. But I’m sure to somebody you’re very special. Good boy.
