Is cryptocurrency good for anything?

Is cryptocurrency good for anything? - Lemmy.World

Can I buy a pizza with it or pay my bills with it? Can my employer pay me in it? Or is it just an “emperor’s new clothes” thing? I just don’t see the tangible value in it. Rhetorical questions, BTW, I know you can’t buy a pizza with it, at least outside of some edge cases that I’m not aware of. I thought what made money money was everyone agreed it was valuable and was willing to exchange it for goods and services directly. I don’t see that with crypto.

There are a few services you van but online that accept crypto. Like hosting provider Vultr. Other things do accept bitcoin like non official student money transfer services.

But all of this is not as wide spread. I did use it a couple of time for actually transferring money, and also buying a software plus support.

Of of our clients (fashion) did setup Etherum payments for some physical products and their NFTs and actually got sales.
