BTC moving down, ETH moving up  Undecided

It's almost starting to look like ETH might take over.

I better go buy an ETH debit card then to spend all of these ETHs.

Or go visit an ETH accepting restaurant.

I can use them to buy things at Amazon for a discount right?

A convoluted way to use a debit card and Amazon coupons. I hope BTC has more going for it than that.

Being able to drop your bank and use an international currency that has a finite amount...I'd say that's quite a bit.

Can I do that with ethereums?

I wasn't really thinking in terms of eth vs btc. I was thinking about btc as a useful currency. It seems like btc has become less useful lately. The merchant adoption boom of 2014 seems to have stopped and even regressed.

I recently discovered overclockers.co.uk has stopped accepting btc. That's the most relevant real-life use case for me personally, gone.

I guess I can go to some shady site and buy a gift card with btc, but if my money is legal I don't really see the point of this instead of just using paypal.
