@GinnyMcQueen as a poor person it is ESPECIALLY important to take back your financial sovereignty. YOU deserve it! remove the middleman (banks) from your value exchange system and enter a new paradigm of freedom.
@foox Cool, I'm okay with not being lectured at because you think you know more than I do about my needs and assume I don't understand anything about currency or the economy.
@GinnyMcQueen errrr no i was trying to be inspirational.
@foox Don't go around telling poor people what they need. It's a bad look, and your take is extremely privileged and uneducated.
@GinnyMcQueen you are totally correct! I appreciate the feedback and will totally reconfigure. Check out some of the art I made about money. I think you will like it.
@foox @GinnyMcQueen crypto isn't going to help poor people when the barrier to entry to get into crypto is paper money and poor people don't have money to waste on a currency that is predominantly used as an investment opportunity.
The concept is nice but it doesn't pan out when people speculate and use cryptocurrencies like a stock.
@zeroes @GinnyMcQueen there will be many cryptocurrencies some will be inflationary like our current money supply and others will be a store of value - so eventually as we migrate across to the new system people will buy and transact and not even know they are using cryptocurrency. but i was only just suggesting that there be a payment gateway for people to give each other money on mastodon based on Ginny original toot.
@foox As a poor person, I'd prefer actual money, thanks. 😇
