Hmm “trust” 😅

Yes, just like you "trust" that your friends are not harboring an axe murderer waiting to kill you when they invite you to dinner. Or the same way you trust that there are not explosives planted in the vending machine you're about to use. Or the same way you trust the checkout lady at the supermarket isn't secretly lacing your groceries with anthrax.

At a certain point, if you wish to exist IRL in a society with other people, trust is required. However, if you don't wish to, no one is forcing you to leave the house 😂 🤷‍♀️

Wow a little defensive. IRL friends and randoms via an app are not the same. And I’m very well travelled. I just don’t need a geocaching app to get me out. 🤣

Just answering your earlier question, "What's stopping someone from...", since you were curious 😊 🤷‍♀️

Yeah and my main point was why bother with the actual “treasure” whatever it might be.. and trust basically stops nothing 😊🤷🏻‍♂️ (it’s why we bitcoin because at its core it’s trustless).

Oh, I see. Well, because some people think it's cool to see what another person has left for them! 😁

For example, I enjoy finding notes in the treasures or seeing what items the person before thought to include, like a little window into another person's life. It makes you think about who they were, their life, and how your two lives have intersected. I suppose they have a similar appeal as time capsules, or finding a love letter pressed in the pages of a library book. Sonder, perhaps.

Not everything has to be for everyone, though. Its okay if its not for you and you just prefer the place. There are many ways to enjoy things :)

Don’t disagree 😊
