    I have been buying groceries through giftcards for over 3 years now and i have not died of hunger or dehydration. The cold is admittedly a bit harder. I dont have that one figured out yet.

    But I am able to take my Monero and use it to interact with the brands and companies that everybody else uses.

    What I was saying above is that for companies that accept different types of cryptocurrency directly, Monero is always in the top one or two spot.

      Fair enough, this seems very regionally specific though. I can only buy gift cards for local supermarkets with my credit card for example. And in all the countries I’ve been to (granted mostly on the European continent) I’ve never seen an option for using crypto for gift cards.
