- Tossrock 13y agoI don't think those 10 million households are going to have their problems solved by bitcoin.
- jdh 13y agoMaybe not in the next few years. But people who pay with cash because they aren't allowed to be in this country and don't want a bank account (some portion of the unbanked) might enjoy shopping in the digital world by using some "digital cash".
- cstejerean 13y agoThey can already shop in the digital world with prepaid Visa, Master Card or even AmEx cards. Going after people without bank accounts is big business.
- aestra 13y agoCan they? I tried to order something online with a prepaid debit card once and it was rejected. I then put in my CC and it worked fine. Disclaimer: My experiences don't necessarily reflect others.
