> low PayPal adoption outside US
As a European I have the opposite impression. Pretty much all online sellers I know that don't offer Paypal are in the US.
And sending money is one thing, having yet another weird cryptocurrency is not the right solution though.

- arenaninja 6y ago> having yet another weird cryptocurrency is not the right solution though. Maybe we disagree on the problem. From the US one of the most convenient solutions is Xoom; in my experience the turnaround is around 24-48 hours depending on the country and institution that's receiving funds. First there is a transaction fee, I usually pay $3 - this seems to be flat so 3% if I'm sending $100 and 1% if I'm sending $300 (I've sent $300 maybe once, more commonly I need to send <$100). Then they double dip by using a favorable exchange rate. I would be surprised if we can't do this better with crypto (note I am not a huge crypto supporter in its current state)
