    I was in this picture. One or two, maybe even three tall ones every evening, for years. And then I discovered untappd and drinking became gamified. A beer while watching TV can’t be alcoholism, right?

    For a while I’d been noticing things like a lack of energy and interest, bad sleep, being irritable and impulsive, and bad memory. After a while I had to take magnesium and other supplements. I just considered it all side effects of aging.

    Now I’ve switched to alcohol free beer since about 2 months and every day I’m surprised how much better the QOL already is. I feel fully rested, feel more confident at work, can remember stuff my kids talk about. For lack of a word, I feel more present.

    And that experience completely changed my opinion about drinking alcohol regularly.

    I don’t know how the technical implementation will work, but here is a post I found.

    The idea is that you transfer money from the bank to your device, just like withdrawing cash from an ATM. Transferring money from one wallet to another should be able to be offline.

    It seems like privacy is a priority, if only to satisfy privacy groups and improve acceptance.
