The Federal Reserve has already launched a small test of near-instantaneous financial transactions. Every time they talk about payments as a future feature of X/Twitter, I wonder if they know that’s getting Sherlocked.

It's also great for splitting checks at restaurants, paying for odd jobs, and paying street vendors. Many countries already have instant payments, so it would be nice if it caught on in the US, but you never know

lots of nice things don't catch on in the US for one reason or another.
