      man if only some kind of “technology” existed to securely hand over big amounts of money, like maybe the cash could be “stored” somewhere, like in a “database” of some sorts, and we could then use some kind of “unique identifiers” and make like “transfers” in cases where the needed cash amount is so big that carrying it around makes us feel uncomfortable 🤔

        The problem with traditional bank transfers, at least in Switzerland, is that they are very much not instant and take up to 2 buisness days for non-buisnesses in switzerland. Therefore instant payements look like a nice alternative to our alternative to venmo here
