After thinking about your answers for a while, I think I’m back to my original question: “So, how will this really be used?” For example, prostitution is legal in Nevada, and so, one of your comments:
is not valid in Las Vegas or Reno. Which means that, you don’t have to carry hundreds of thousands of dollars in cash, and risk getting mugged or robbed or pick-pocketed, you can carry it around in Lust. I think that means it’s also easier to stay anonymous. How would you want to carry $1 million in mob money? A duffel bag? Or a flash-drive?
Another comment:
is actually very illuminating to me, because I live in southern Oregon, which is rapidly becoming the Napa Valley of marijuana. Recreational marijuana just became legal in Nevada (July 1, 2017), which means that a black market grower could take several thousand dollars worth of weed from Klamath Falls to Winnemucca, pretty much avoiding notice, and exchange it for cryptocurrency.
I have friends who grow recreational marijuana legally (they’re licensed with the state, everything is above board – I can’t even get a freebie, yeesh!), but the worst part of their business is that it’s all still cash, sometimes getting a lot of cash in remote areas. I could see Lust being a far more reasonable form of exchange for them.
