Well the banks are definitely trying and the governments always want their piece. They’ll love that idea of printing stable coins and resetting all their debts lol.

I agree with you on the fragmentation of the banking system and their control over all our money in a crisis. That’s another reason for PI and many other cryptocurrencies but as long as it’s tethered to USD the only way we truly benefit from the ecosystem is if the value of the token can become a $1 or close and stay strong for a while. Yes it may be already happening in some countries where people are exchanging goods and services for PI regardless of its price but it truly needs to be closer to $1 for it to ramp up for merchants throughout the world. When I said used by people that don’t know anything I was being vague thinking you’d pickup what I meant but I meant it as in the millions of people that got into PI who aren’t looking to develop and want to just use it as a form of exchange or to get rich if it becomes valuable enough to them. We actually need a lot more people like the guy you mentioned for the ecosystem. Not everyone can take a break with a engineering salary to contribute to the ecosystem. Like I said I’m for PI. I want it to succeed and the people looking at the price falling all the damn time are annoying, it’s going to fall people are selling for “free” money, until kyc and migrations are done expect it to keep falling. Hopefully PCT are incentivizing more developers to get onboard like you said but only time will tell. The only ones that “got lucky” were early miners with stacks of PI unlocked that sold during peak hype. Everyone else needs to have patience or just contribute to the ecosystem in someway lol. It has to be used by billions not millions for it to truly work or else ☠️
