    People are downvoting me because of the crypto bro thing I’m guessing. People were slapping the term “crypto” about as a way to cure cancer or make websites better or something. This type of thing is EXACTLY what crypto was invented for.

      I mean, can you blame them? Cryptobros did ruin a lot of stuff.

      Avoiding censorship (when you’re not someone spreading hatred) is the primary reason one should use paper or crypto. Tax evasion isn’t one of them.

        You cannot really buy digital games using paper money though, unless if the service has gift cards. This is the perfect application for crypto

          You can, if you go to game stores. Though those have been going bankrupt left and right - but I prefer buying from them rather than digital. No risk of a game getting removed from a store or digital pass.
