How about putting a marker, like gray or something, to clue us in where to click?
Either way is the position based on the middle of the hand, or the top of a finger ... or ???
Love it!!
Just a couple suggestions. A few I clicked on and it said wrong, ... I think because I couldn't tell exactly where to position the "hand" pointer ... at the tip of the pointer finger? In the center? etc.
I had to zoom in to get it to accept my click.
Also, some boundaries seem off. Eg., click northern part of Benin, places the red dot where I clicked, inside Benin, but shows Wrong. Ethiopia same thing -- gotta click in the right part of Ethiopia I guess.
Overall, real cool.
Skip the stablecoin, and if fiat is needed, go straight from bitcoin to the mobile phone with services like these:

The network implements ZKsync's Airbender technology, representing the first production deployment of this zero-knowledge proof system. ADI Infrastructure partners include Alchemy for reliable RPC infrastructure and real-time data services, WalletConnect for wallet-to-application connectivity, and Covalent for blockchain data indexing.
DFI is based on https://www.zksync.io though certainly a private blockchain, like a CBDC

Indeed it would have been. Thanks for pointing that out. I thought I had ~privacy selected, but alas it definitely was miscategorized.
Tether earns many billions by investing the hundreds of billions received from issuing stablecoins, yet pay out no interest or dividends to those holding those stablecoins.
That is giving them a war chest that is (and will continue to) fund all kinds of innovations that ... increases Utility of their stablecoins.
But it is still just representative money. One USDT is essentially an IOU from Tether, and I just have to trust they keep sufficient reserves (and are not at risk of govt seizure) so that one USDT will remain valued at ~$1.
But a slow drain of its monetary value over time will slowly transfer the wealth of its holders to those who can produce the medium at a low cost. This is a lesson worth remembering when we turn to the discussion of the soundness of government money in the later parts of the book.
Two ways. Gradually, then suddenly.
they seem to be involved in everything lately
Yup....
Tether is also a backer of a (KYC) wallet called Sorted.
What's unique is they build android to work on older releases of Android as well, which is nice because there are many older smartphones still in use in the Global South. And they support KaiOS feature phones, which are surprisingly affordable.
Also lets you convert to (but not from) local fiat using mobile money as well.
I've not installed it because it requires KYC, but they claim LN support is coming (if not arrived already, haven't checked). And Tether Gold, as well as Liquid, and more.
