No, my argument is that it's not really used as a currency, but treated like a stock. Which is true.

Even for the few people who intend to pay using it, the vast majority of places don't accept it.

Now you've learned that at least 500 grocery stores do.

I'll take your word for it, cryptobro. As I've stated, I haven't heard of that retailer.

Have you heard of Microsoft?

Yup. But when I go on their site I don't see any option of paying with crypto. I've tried the Windows/Office sites, as well as the Minecraft site that they obviously own.

Have you heard of AT&T? AMC theaters?

No and no.

You're again assuming I'm from wherever you're from. Almost certainly the US, as when people assume everyone knows about some random thing in their country, it's usually an American.

Ok so I looked it up and apparently AT&T is an ISP. So I looked at mine. BT? No crypto. Virgin Media? No crypto. Sky? No crypto. EE? No crypto. Vodafone? No crypto.

For cinemas, Vue, Odeon, Cineworld all also don't have crypto payments.

Widely accepted indeed lmao
