      This is long overdue, it should have been in place long before maga. But MAGA accelerated it.

      Yeah. It’s a step forward from the country specific systems like Swish, BLIK etc. but who knows how it will handle edge cases. Plus if they really want it to challenge Visa and Mastercard it should be available globally.
