As with anything cryptocurrency related, it's safe to assume that the justification is contrived and the actual use case is niche, at best.
My experience as a Brazilian is that I've never seen anyone using cryptocurrencies in real life. On the other hand, the government's new instant payments system (Pix), allows anyone with a mobile phone to easily make small payments. In less than one year since launch it's already ubiquitous.

yeah i mean not like a condescending tone is going to covince me to try and convince you to give away PII on this one i mean this account is linked to my name you can do your thing
Wow, you can actually pay your bus fare and phone bills in Brazil with crypto? That sounds either very impressive or totally unbelievable.
I could not find anything on Google, so if someone could you link/cite to some actually used examples (I guess apps or utility website?) that would be very helpful. Sincere thanks.
