    You are confidently incorrect.

    Being confidently incorrect still leaves you incorrect.

    Whole Foods, this little chain you might not have heard about, accepts crypto.

    You can choose not to use cryptocurrencies, but that doesn’t mean cryptocurrencies aren’t widely accepted.

    Cryptocurrency is accepted in many places.

    I’m being factual, you’re throwing a tantrum because you’re wrong.

      Never heard of whole foods. You shouldn’t assume people are from wherever you’re from. I’m guessing it’s a food shop?

      But congratulations, you’ve named one company 🎉👏

      You’ll note that I’ve been saying there’s practically nowhere that accepts crypto, not literally nowhere on planet earth. So well done on your strawman, but it doesn’t contradict what I’ve said at all.

      People use crypto as a stock. Not a currency.

      Widely accepted

      Haha hahahahaha

      HAHA HAHAHAHAHA HAHAHA

      HAHAHAHA HAHAHAHA

      AHAHAHA

      HAHA HAHAHAHAHA

      hahaha

      ha

      HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

      I’ll stick to using real money. If I called up my mortgage provider and said “oh I’m not going to be paying in £ anymore, but I can give you Monero!” I’d be evicted pretty damn quick. As would you if you paid any bills.

        By all means, broadcast your ignorance in force.

        Your argument is that grocery stores don’t accept cryptocurrency.

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

        Microsoft accepts crypto. Have you heard of Microsoft? Or is the underside of your rock totally empty?

        Have you heard of AT&T? AMC theaters?

        How many more examples of your ignorance would you like?

          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

            Yes, not literally every company globally accepts cryptocurrency yet, same as other currencies, but thousands of them do.

            You’re learning!

            That’s what’s important.

              *Only a very small fraction of companies support them.

              So in other words, you can’t use it as your currency day to day, like I’ve been saying.

              And even those who do own it don’t use it that way anyway, like I’ve been saying.

              Good boy. You’re finally coming around. Maybe one day we’ll get you to the point where you can move from velcro shoes to tying your own laces. Baby steps.

                Incorrect, but you finally got around to using that straw man you mentioned.

                There are thousands of companies who use cryptocurrencies.

                People who own cryptocurrencies use it in transactions.

                Your argument was that there are not.

                So, I guess you’ve proved yourself wrong again. Surprising that you could do it this many times in a row, but at least you’re consistent.

                  No they don’t. They use it like a stock.

                  You cryptobros are absolutely hilarious. Crypto isn’t replacing real money. Sorry to break it to you.

                  Giggling in my chair right now at how pissy you are about crypto having no real use beyond cryptobro gambling.

                    Haha, sure you are, just like how digital currency hasn’t already replaced cash (it has), I’m sure this next iteration of more secure digital currency totally won’t update the last digital currency (it will).

                    Keep giggling, that sounds about your speed.
