For about a 63 cent stamp and a 5 cent security envelope you can send about $8000 or so of effectively untraceable hundred dollar bills with the USPS.

For 5 cents you can send any amount of monero anywhere around the world and have it settle in 25 minutes. The transaction is irreversible and obfuscated - sender, receiver and quantity.

Can you send it to the grocery store you're trying to leave with food sooner than 25 minutes?

That sounds like an implied criticism but I genuinely don't know the answer.

Yeah every transaction has a one-time key you can give them. Settlement in 25 minutes is quicker than the 1–5 days they already deal with.
