This holiday shopping season, I found myself in a peculiar situation.
I was at the mall. I was ready to shop for presents. But I couldn’t find anyone who would take my money.
Heck, when I asked if I could pay with it, many looked at me as if I was from Mars!
To be fair, I wasn’t offering to pay in dollars. I wasn’t trying to use my credit card or even Apple Pay. Instead, I was trying to spend some bitcoin.
