@maccruiskeen@social.linux.pizza @stefan@stefanbohacek.online That's what my country (Brazil) did. PIX is operated by our Central Bank, is lightning fast, and mostly free of charge (Corp accounts pay a fee, but it is cheap).

@maccruiskeen@social.linux.pizza @stefan@stefanbohacek.online an opaque bank with poor customer service and weird regulatory position? Nah
Instant inter-Bank transfers should be the default for all banks, it should not require a third-party app. Should be a requirement for a bank to be called a bank.
