Using Cryptocurrency in Real Life

Why isn't there a crypto debit card? Pay with your crypto at a restaurant instead of cash.

And why isn't there 'Pay with crypto' option for online purchases just like pay with visa/master? Simply open your metamask, select a token and instantly pay.

What am I missing here?

For people citing GAS, sure. Use SOL/Matic. GAS isn't an issue here.

I don't think most people care about actually using their crypto.

At least none of the persons that i know that bought some.

( I personally sold all before December 2017 @18k . Wouldn't have done it then and i don't see what would have changed).

I think what you are missing is they you're ( potentially) to vested in it. At least that would be the default observation for many people.
