Currencies, commissions, geo and VPN

I’m juggling cards, e-wallets and the occasional crypto on mobile, and it’s chaos figuring out fees and exchange spreads. One cashier shows AUD, the next flips to USD at checkout, and sometimes a VPN nudge triggers extra checks. I’m hunting for a single roundup that spells out currencies, commissions, how rates are calculated, and any geo quirks—so I can decide in two minutes if deposits and withdrawals will be smooth or a headache.

Meanwhile I’m camped near a food truck where the chalkboard menu keeps changing every few minutes, and the radio loops the same sunny chorus. To keep the wait from turning into a scroll spiral, I set a short timer, clear one old reminder, rename one messy note, and pick exactly one tiny task to finish tonight. Nothing fancy, but that little reset trims the mental noise and makes the rest of the evening feel manageable—even the line seems to move faster when I’m not juggling ten half-started tabs.
