> Forex (for travelers) perhaps?

so the goalposts just moved from "having utility" to "myself-or-someone-I-personally-know got utility from it"?

I did. Used to refill my eqyptian sim card at bitrefill.io. Much cheaper and easier than go search for refill card at merchants all looking to rob a touristo.
