There is only one possible block to this, and that is that any company/business would want the equivalent LOTUS for $$..... the reality is at present, with current prices, we would be talking about amounts of LOTUS that most holders wouldn't have.

And with the volatility of smart-currency markets, I'm not certain 'mainstream' businesses still playing the fiat-money-trap-game will be up for it.

What they may be interested in is trading LOTUS for discounts, similar to Loyalty rewards or frequent-flyer points.... $$ + LOTUS...

It's still worth exploring. We just need some more people on team willing to be part of that little effort.... interested? ;-)
