yes that's right, I also spend part of my shopping through e-commerce. I think this is a good thing because people can't help but be forced to use the internet. The possibility that they are curious about cryptocurrencies may arise. But I still hope that the pandemic will end soon
Even if the pandemic were to end tomorrow I think things are never going to be the same, the world has changed and we need to adapt to it and I really think that the world as stated in the title of this thread is going to towards a digital age, I just hope that people also give bitcoin and other good cryptocurrencies a shot because a world in which all transactions are digital but only fiat exists will be terrible for our freedoms and our privacy and I really hope it does not happen.
Once we start living in a digital age, i guess we are starting also to minimize using traditional fiat as we enter into e-commerve world where bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies have their edges over fiat. The use of online transactions for use will be maximize and i do believe that this would be a great start for bitcoin since people are embracing it now. And if this will continue even if pandemic has already ended, crypto will achieve its mass adoption soon.
This is what I hope too, but it's not happening here. Online fiat banking is so efficient for online payments, I can't even use crypto to pay for all the online shopping I've done during the lockdown. I would be willing to use it if it's allowed, cause I feel like it's my responsibility to use it for it be mass adopted by the people. But yup, it's hard trying to use it. So we have to start from somewhere. If there's btc available, I would gladly try it even though it's expensive at some point.
And yup, we all are advancing in the technological age faster than before, students are into online classes, work from home set up for some, non stop meeting through zooms, but I think after it all got back to normal, we will all have face to face meetings soon.
