- vba616 5y agoI don't see how they are alternatives to each other, because crypto doesn't perform the same function. It's only marketed that way. You can be sure a system like Hawala works because actual terrorists have used it forever. Like Toyota pickup trucks. There are notorious pictures of Toyota pickups with frames that have broken in half. Since they have "issues" does it mean insurgents should drive Teslas instead?
