eggs are about $0.28 right now that’s 0.0000024 BTC which is ~ 239 sats + another 200 or so for transaction fees.
I really didn’t want to go bitcoin, but it’s likely the only reasonable competition we can put up against stuff the size of Visa.

I WAS going to follow-up my “it’s always sunny in philadelphia” quote but I got completely distracted by TWENTY-EIGHT CENT EGGS. I can literally buy eggs from the source (there’s a farm nearby that “donates” a portion of their income directly to the chickens and puts it into quality of life upgrades) and it still costs me $4.50-5.00 a dozen depending on weight.

Ummmm.
ACH is how you get your paycheck, and it’s being updated to FedNow.
Zelle is an independent network as well.
And of course, there is Discover and AmEx.
There is also cash, check, money order. They still work today, just people largely forgot how to use them.
