  Explanation: Cryptocurrency is a modern phenomenon wherein non-physical units of account not backed by any authority as legal for payment are purchased and sold under the promise that they will be worth something.

  Indulgences were a medieval Catholic practice wherein non-physical units of (moral) account not backed by any authority as legal for payment are sold under the promise that they will be worth something. Namely, worth the absolution of a few sins when trying to get into heaven.

    I wouldn’t really call that cryptocurrency. It’s more of a pay to win scheme

    Damn, Catholics are dull. You can just sacrifice Jesus at the cross and get absolution for free.
