 There's still a chicken-egg problem of getting something from that mint. But either someone might already have ecash from a previous time they were online, or maybe we'll have 7-Eleven ecash one day? Perfect use case for physical scratch cards.

 Yes exactly, now you need to pay for WiFi at 7-Eleven if your not a customer with encumbered e-cash on an invoice.

 Can I tip the homeless guy panhandling outside the 7-Eleven in ecash someday?
