Sorry I don't understand the point of your answer.

I've mentioned multiple times "financial institutions", which include banks and paypal in my book.

Bitcoins are amazing. Just not there yet. I can't give a credit card of bitcoins for my wife to buy groceries :)

But that's off-topic.

You clearly just want to disagree and that's fine, but please bring arguments instead of weird accusations of bitcoin hatred

Yes you can. There are actually even multiple providers for just such a card.


The point is that referring to Visa and MC as a duopoly is inaccurate. There are other ways to process payments besides through the credit card system.
