I would like to launch a, hopefully, fun social experiment: #StellarSpread!
The idea is that I will send 3 people 100 $XLM each. These 3 people should then split the amount among 1-3 people they trust to do the same. Each forming their own "chain". 2/
We will keep track of the 3 chains to see which one is the most "infectious". Every person involved should pick people who they think will do a good job in spreading the #Stellarspread further!
Who is in and wants to help #StellarSpread by being one of the first "infectees"?

✅Fast

A few tweets about the significance of P2P payments in #cryptocurrency and why interoperability with traditional financial rails is key to reach mass adoption.
In the early days, the #bitcoin narrative evolved around P2P payments. We needed a digital equivalent of cash.
This was inspired by the role of banks in the 2008 financial crisis.
IF #BTC would become the currency of the internet, as a result it should be valuable.

1/x A thread on why this is big.
Since the #Bitcoin White-paper, we have unfortunately not seen widespread use of a "p2p electronic cash system" yet.
In part this is due to the inefficient interaction of #BTC with FIAT:
↔️ If I want to pay in BTC, but my friends USD i'm stuck.
