even harder is finding a payment system that is not US-based and broadly accepted (no, not crypto).

I do have some hopes for a digital euro and, maybe, maybe, even Wero. But i fear it will never take off because too many players are involved and there is no clear marketing strategy to get it to people. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wero_(payment)

Why not crypto? It's exactly that and works pretty well

  • It does not. Its volatile, its backed by some at least as shady companies, rugpulls are constant, the acceptance rate of crypto is way below Mastercard/Visa or even Amex, you need to have at least a charged phone and and and. Sorry, I don't see any available version of crypto replacing MC or Visa.
