Here in the Philippines we could use our local wallet called coins.ph to buy load pay for our electric,water and credit card bills and even book for travel.
Yes,it was but also there are so many wallet that we could use for everyday life here in the Philippines ,i think our country was totally embracing what is crypto was,so im totally glad to have here just like what you express.
The convenience of having that kind of crypto wallet app is really something! Imagine not having to stand in line just to pay the bills is definitely a dream come true. I also use the same app to pay my bills, however, I don't really use bitcoin to pay for those. I simply use the local currency wallet instead. Bitcoin is the future so I'm saving and holding as much as I can.
