I think one problem people have is payment processing. There really needs to be a federal program to allow people to easily transfer money as payment. There are too many extractive middlemen with rentier economies and ethics.

There's no reason why Congress can make something like what Brazil has with Pix.

Having a public option for payment processing can do a tremendous amount of good.



I believe that this is where someone like Supertab [1] could really pop off. I don’t honestly don’t think having this as a country-specific service would be useful/beneficial. Not affiliated with ST, just have a friend who works there. I’m yet to encounter a website that offers them, though.

I wonder how accessible would it be to put article source on Patreon and make a static site that fetches and displays them via Javascript?


If only there was some kind of Internet money, that would not need to rely on governments.
