Magical internet money: credit card points, crypto and incentives in the digital economy
The most widely used internet money today is not what you think.
It's Airline points… and it underpins the global economy and generates billions of dollars a year in revenue.
But airline points suck. They can be devalued or cancelled, and you don't actually on them.
Crypto offers a better way to offer rewards and in this episode we explore how two companies are merging consumer purchases with crypto rewards, Fold and Moso.
Fold is a Bitcoin company that offers "Sats-back" for every purchase you make. We interviewed CEO Will Reeves about Fold's growth, and found out why his customers lover getting Bitcoin back.
We also spoke with Jake Margulies from Moso, a crypto version of Rakuten, that offers any crypto project the ability to distribute their token as a reward for people who make purchases using their platform.
Crypto provides a better offering for consumers, and it could be the best way to mass global adoption.
