You're falling for the standard crypto trap of being a solution in search of a problem. The user experience you're describing is Venmo. Making it use CookCoin instead of USD doesn't make it easier to build, and it isn't really a selling point.

What I'm describing is Venmo + Square. Neither of those 2 things completely implement what I'm describing on their own. Regardless, I didn't say that it had to be crypto. My entire point was they have a the easiest path of any company to critical mass adoption of a service because they directly control the software of half the phones in the US.
