Very true! And it’s interesting that the gift card options are usually higher premiums. Is this because the buyer (of sats) could more easily scam the seller? Or vice versa?

Or just because of the reduced use value of a gift card?

Also, maybe a higher premium for better privacy…

Perhaps a little bit of all that contributes to higher premiums on gift cards!

Physical gift card code exchange is probably the most private method, but similarly its so private that its hard to defend yourself in a dispute because there's no definitive way to prove you gave your peer an authentic gift card code that hasn't been used already. Thus why e-gift card with burner email is recommended since you get email receipt proving your peer received the gift card code (but obviously not as private and people still use physical gift card code all the time without issue)

If more people used RoboSats as a sort of P2P bitrefill.. Then a circular economy of sorts could take hold where buyers stacking sats provide sellers with gift cards they can use for their daily living purposes. Rinse and repeat 🙂

Love this idea 😍
