Why isn’t this new Stripe thing then about being able to use Bitcoin when buying things?

Or how do I use Coinbase for buying things? Try go to the coinbase website and look for how to buy things with your Bitcoin. What I read from the site is that it’s all about investing in the value going up, not about making payments to other people or businesses for services or purchases.

I would have some difficulty paying my mortgage, my mechanic, and my grocery bill with crypto.
