Meanwhile I've made chargebacks on my credit card after being ghosted by the seller and never receiving anything. Nothing to do with having my info stolen. You're shit out of luck if that happens with crypto.
you when you learn trusted escrows exist: 😮😮😮
You can get chargeback by your exchange if you use a crypto exchange with a crypto-linked credit card. Paying by a normal transaction is like paying by bank transfer, and just like bank transfers, once you have sent over the money, you're not getting it back.
"Just regulate this currency that is supposed to be deregulated"
Or just use normal money and get all the security features without jumping through hoops and trusting scummy crypto exchanges that have been scamming users left, right and centre.
"Supposed to be deregulated" said no one.
Did you read my comment? I literally cannot use normal payment services to pay for my student loans unless I pay around 7,000$ extra in total.
