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.

It’s been over a month and I’m now v impressed with Freedomia

It’s become my card on:

Bolt, uber, Amazon, and flower gifting sites.

You can top it up with Bitcoin AND LIGHTNING

And use dirty fiat when you must.

Eg tonight.

I’m home alone as my friends just left to go the d&b night. (I can’t walk).

I’m now ordering pizza on bolt food (like doordash)

I sent €20 in lightning to Freedomia and it topped up.

I used the Freedomia visa card in bolt.

I am now waiting for pizza

Yay 🍕
