Small purchases are impractical. This is a problem.
Small purchases were almost always a problem. It's just more intense now. If you want to make micro-payments without spending a fortune in fees, consider reading what is the
Lightning Network. We'd discussed on another thread and as far as I understood, you didn't know what is LN. There is one problem with LN: It hasn't been adopted by many stores yet!
Now I realize why Bitcoin hard forked into Bitcoin Cash.
Are you sure that you do? Because I don't think that the fees was the cause of Bitcoin Cash. Rather, I'd say that someone found the chance, because of a soft fork, to retain the previous chain by calling it "Real Bitcoin" and himself "Satoshi" just to make money out of it.
Not sure why BSV exists, though.I once considered buying bitcoin to purchase cannabis seeds overseas. Not anymore.
Where does that "Not anymore" refer to? That you can't buy it
with Bitcoin? Or that you can't buy cannabis seeds overseas? Because if it's the first one: Altcoins!
