I used a crypto card for the first time; “spending crypto like cash” may no longer be an empty hype
- A dispatch rider delivered a crypto debit card unexpectedly after a month of scheduling misfires.
- The Zerocard project is part of a mentorship program for Web3 builders in West Africa.
- The card allows users to spend USDC stablecoin directly from their wallets, integrating with traditional payment systems.
The introduction of Zerocard represents a significant step towards integrating cryptocurrency into everyday transactions in Africa. However, the reliance on stablecoins and the need for additional cryptocurrencies to cover gas fees may limit its appeal to a broader audience. Future iterations should focus on simplifying the user experience to attract more users.
