Aren't you propping up "the system" by using visa/MasterCard and debit cards and bank stuff? I'm not trying to be a dick, I'm pointing out that at this point in time using credit cards etc is a matter of convenience which is not entirely avoidable due to limited Bitcoin adoption. Also, Jack Mallers still uses credit cards. Of course it's good to not be in debt bit that's a different argument than "you shouldn't use credit cards because you're then proping up the fiat system".

Baby steps. I dont use cards unless I have to. Pretty rare for me actually. I never said people shouldnt use credit cards. My point is that of youre holding debt as a protest against the legacy system, youre actually doing them a favor.

Also, I dont know what Mallers has to do with anything.

You're holding debt for your debit services in the form of fiat. At least with a CC you're making someone else hold the fiat month to month. You can pay it off monthly from a Bitcoin balance.
