Thanks for the response. Aside from the fed responses lol I was wondering what people actually used it for since we can’t deny there is a lack of products you can buy with crypto. I will def start using it for donations and VPN
Actually I've had really good success in paying for privacy services with it. I wouldn't do it any other way, especially for things like a VPN where you don't want the provider to have to keep your name and address due to legal requirements.
Another great use case is sending money abroad, especially to countries where there's other sorts of financial restrictions.
