    Replying to @sudshekhar02
    (9/10) For the crypto enthusiasts: E-voucher (if allowed to) can enable ERC-20 like tokens on India's TradFi stack. Startups/orgs can create their own vouchers, allow consumers to buy/sell from the UPI app of choice. Redemption could happen on self/partner merchants.

    (6/10) Let the citizen choose who sells him groceries, fertilizers, fuel, medicine, etc. Just assist him where needed. Targetted Direct benefit transfers have also been shown to reduce corruption and increase societal progress

    Lots of heartburn in Indian fintech & startup circles over RBI's latest circular on PPI wallet restrictions! This thread points to the rationale behind the regulator's actions. Fintechs are pushing the envelope thru such dark pattern digital lending workflows & disguised CTAsπŸ‘‡
