    This is just remarkably dumb. Free currency? What does that even mean? You giving out free money? Or do you mean a currency with no value?

    Money has a value, it’s the number on the coin, bill, note, or whatever you call it.

    You see something for 10 quid, give 'em a tenner, it’s yours. Amazing.

    Crypto on the other hand has failed as a currency. Far too volatile for commerce. Too many scams. It’s become a commodity to be traded, but it doesn’t exist, and has no inherent value, unlike other commodities that have a use other than to be traded.
