A Reddit person by the identify of “satoshinakamoto7” claims to have used their free MOON tokens to pay this month’s hire, providing one other signal that cryptocurrencies are starting so as to add actual worth to folks’s lives. 

In a put up that appeared on Tuesday, satoshinakamoto7 said they’d burned by means of all of their money financial savings and gold through the pandemic after being with out a job for ten months. That’s once they remembered that they’d over 14,000 Moons of their possession.

The person defined:

“I used to be questioning what to do for the hire, for per week now. And simply remembered I had over 14000 Moons right here in r/Cryptocurrency. Offered them and made my hire. It was like a stone lifted out of my chest. Not capable of finding the best phrase for this sense.”

On the time of writing, the put up had over 600 feedback and an upvote charge of 96%.

The person didn’t specify how the Moons had been liquidated or the sale worth, but when our earlier Reddit story is any indication, there’s likelihood they unloaded them onto secondary markets, probably utilizing the xDai blockchain. Though the worth of 1 Moon is at present pegged at round $0.012 on Coingecko, the person might have been in a position to promote their bag at the next worth on secondary markets.

“I’m grateful to this sub, who’ve tolerated my posts,” satoshinakamoto7 stated. “You all have put a roof over my head for a month! Grateful!”
