My understanding is that Block and CashApp do a ton of work banking the unbanked in the US. So yes.
I just learned that one of the homeless persons working with us buys silver and uses that as means of exchange in the US. 🤯

Discussion
Any chance you know anyone inside that I can reach out to?
Massive majority of the people who work on my crews (temps) at work are either homeless or very low income and I would say probably half of them use CashApp as thier main "bank"
Nice! What do you do? Do they use the Bitcoin part of it or just cash? How do they pay for things in the stores? Do stores accept cash app directly?
I am looking for more ways to onboard them into Nostr/Bitcoin. We also have several formal entities looking for better systems to collaborate on helping them out.
I think mostly the fiat side of things, but Idk, I haven't ever asked anyone directly. And some stores take cashapp payments from mobile devices, but the majority of people I know who use it use the cashapp card.
