I remember hearing ODELL (npub1qny…95gx) call airline miles/credit card points a shitcoin. Agreed but never really understood why.
Turns out I had credit card points. For our yearly trip to New York (and PUBKEY (npub1key…lt3h) ) I saw that I could transfer those points to Marriot and had enough points to stay at some really nice hotels. So I transferred the points. When I actually went to book it let me know that it was the number of points that I transferred PLUS $3000. Just outright misleading and I can’t get my points back.
Should have just cashed out the points and bought Bitcoin. This is why i’ll just use Fold. Don’t care if they “nuked the rewards”… the rewards are BTC.
