I'm trying to see the advantage.
People with cell phones have apps for BTC.
Sending over a land line....? For older people?

Is this not just connecting to the Internet over DSL and using the land line to make a phone call at the same time?  One can run a Bitcoin app on a computer or other device using the Internet connection?

Edit: There is nothing new here. DSL technology has been around for close to 20 years.

Concerned that blockchain bloat will lead to centralization? Storing less than 4 GB of data once required the budget of a superpower and a warehouse full of punched cards. https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/8/87/IBM_card_storage.NARA.jpg https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Punched_card

Possibly for routing around surveillance of data lines using the wiretapping and eavesdropping legal protections for voice lines?

Not everyone has a cellphone.

Trust me there are people I know that never go on the internet.

sounds to me Xerox is stuck in the 1990's sending data via 56k modems.. guess they haven't heard of fibre optic internet or 4g mobile internet yet. much easier to send bitcoins these days

I worked in the finance division at Xerox for quite some time.  I actually pitched the idea of using Bitcoin to save on international transfers to the high level executives back in early 2012.  Interesting to see them opening up to Bitcoin now...
