Not sure what you’re talking about, but living life off of gift cards sucks. There’s nothing wrong with using Monero as a means of exchange and then cashing out when you need to.

I found gift cards (nostr:npub1j9qyxka5lck4tw50v7qfrs6gdwczz5ydt7ugqy6nhuva9p6dpy5q8rs2yg or nostr:npub1m7r9aayrqjtt2q0whkyrwlys75s5d828c5uewvqwyfd2kxefkfjqgeny2w) very convenient. Filling the tank or some shopping has less friction than going thru a “contract. And no banks involved. Of course not always. I’d like to read more opinions and solutions
It’s certainly better than the alternative (which is nothing).
In terms of gift cards, the more generic, the better. Like a plain visa gift card would be amazing. But Amazon/walmart would be good secondarily. Even then though, you can’t take 20 of that and give it to a friend etc. it’s just limiting.
