gollark: Sorry. What?!
gollark: I can see a few problems:1. how are you planning to make secure bank cards?2. how will people trust the system?3. how is it actually more convenient than holding [CURRENCY] in your inventory?4. you will need it to be really secure - so secure that even if an ATM is stolen it won't be possible to meddle with the backend.
