@stefan paypal is good tech?
@maccruiskeen @stefan an opaque bank with poor customer service and weird regulatory position? Nah
Instant inter-Bank transfers should be the default for all banks, it should not require a third-party app. Should be a requirement for a bank to be called a bank.

@maccruiskeen @stefan That's what my country (Brazil) did. PIX is operated by our Central Bank, is lightning fast, and mostly free of charge (Corp accounts pay a fee, but it is cheap).
The entire thing costs like 10M USD a year to run last I checked. For a country this big, it's an absolute bargain.
This has revolutionized things so much that Trump used it to justify sanctions (because it hurts Visa and MC).

@stefan I was telling my son about a friend who spent an hour locked in her car while an obsessed coworker beat on the hood demanding she open the doors.
Had to back-track halfway through the story and tell him nobody had cellphones in those days.
(Stalker finally got tired and wandered off, and she high-tailed it out of there and got a restraining order.)
