It's really sad how long it's taken is to just start to get back to this point. In 2016-2017 I had a Visa debit card that let me spend Bitcoin literally anywhere. I would just deposit some Bitcoin to coinbase, and it would cover the charge every time I swiped the card, just like a bank account. I lived on Bitcoin savings and Monero mining income for a little over a year. Gas, groceries, rent, home improvement, Christmas presents, all of it paid with crypto. Coinbase ended up shutting the Shift debit card program down, I assume for tax accounting reasons. It's taken us years just to get close to something that good again.
