The Bitcoin revolution started a global gold rush in the issuance of new digital money, mostly functioning as a digital store of value. In a parallel development, many existing and new companies claim to have developed superior technology to seamlessly transfer payments. This chapter will discuss the absence of incentives among these companies for providing much-needed innovation in the daily payment space with a digital medium of exchange. The chapter will then describe a new technology that can disrupt the US payment card duopoly, the nemesis of small business owners for over half a century. The innovation builds on a digital dollar (DG dollar) that is fully compliant with payment-processing regulation and can be used in daily commerce throughout the US.
As described in related patent filings,11 The technology described in this chapter was the subject of filings with the USPTO on April 12, 2016, and July 24, 2017. DG dollars can be stored in a register app on a smartphone. The digital dollar’s value is fixed at parity with the paper dollar and remains freely convertible
