business the cryptocurrency. It is converted to
"fiat" U.S.dollars, and they get a deposit to their

3. We are trying out a couple of services now;
many companies are working on coming into
the market. They are running into compliance
issues, as the SEC, the Fed and IRS have all made
rules surrounding this.
August 16 -17, 2022
Companies have to be SOC2 compliant, and http://www.theprepaidexpo.com/
handle IRS reporting, issuing a 1099-B for
proceeds from broker and barter exchanges,
send 1099s to merchants and form 8300 for cash

ATMs all over the place, and cash is king for many https://www.wespay.org/
people. Maybe down the road, there won't be any
cash or a need for money, and life will look like
Star Trek, although some of the societies they
encountered used some type of tender. There are
a lot of people who use cash and only use cash.

Then he started to accept charge cards and had a book
and an imprinter and took the slips to the bank with
his cash. If you have a show you
