If crypto becomes common to spend, wouldnt it be volnourable to robbery? Like in: Ok send me ur crypto to my adress or ur dead.

In case of when people can handle their whole account mobile.

With cash, robbers know people dont have their whole bank with them. However with mobile telephone that is the case.. Or could be.

I've been using Bitcoin for years, and have never had access to any funds on my phone. Don't plan to, either. I guess this could happen if mobile BTC usage gets several magnitudes more prevalent, but even if so, it's a big gamble for robbers to simply assume that anyone and everyone has immediate access to crypto funds.

But while we're on the subject, this is definitely a good reason to remember this sage advice: Don't tell people about your bitcoins. I don't even like to tell people IRL that I'm into Bitcoin. Paranoid about people wanting my coins. Smiley
