World Health Organization Warns of Tainted Cash, Says to Use Contactless Payments<\/h2>\n

Contactless payments include smartphone-based services like Apple Pay, apps like Venmo, services like PayPal, and of course, Bitcoin.<\/p>\n

Why Bitcoin is The Solution To Failing Fiat and Outdated Gold<\/h2>\n

But while services like Apple Pay<\/a> and Venmo are great contactless alternatives, they actually share very few similarities with cash, unlike Bitcoin, which was designed to be the first-ever form of peer-to-peer digital cash.<\/p>\n

Cash comes with a layer of anonymity and secrecy. People can store cash however they see fit and often use cash to hide any trace of their transactions from third-parties.<\/p>\n

Any transaction made using Venmo or services like Apple Pay, must rely on a third-party to validate each transaction, and the paper trail left behind will point directly to the end-user.<\/p>\n

Bitcoin<\/a>, however, may also include a transparent distributed ledger that keeps track of all transactions, actually tying a cryptographic address to a user is a far more complicated process.<\/p>\n

Bitcoin is also said to have the attributes of a safe haven asset<\/a>, like gold.<\/p>\n
