 Most people are not used to issue their own means of payment, so this requires some rethinking. For example, if we were to know that when we take out a loan, new money is created out of nothing and disappears again when we pay back the loan, then this process would be nothing special for most people.\\ Most people are not used to issue their own means of payment, so this requires some rethinking.

-With Minuto, the two guarantors take over the function of a bank, because with the signature and stamp the guarantors confirm that the publisher/creator of the Minuto is trustworthy and can also provide a service. Therefore, this process must also be somewhat more elaborate to ensure the security.\\ 
  
 With a normal loan, the bank wants to have additional collateral, the creditworthiness must be determined, etc. and even very high fees are charged for this in the form of interest and this process is much more elaborate and complicated than the creation of Minuto vouchers. With a normal loan, the bank wants to have additional collateral, the creditworthiness must be determined, etc. and even very high fees are charged for this in the form of interest and this process is much more elaborate and complicated than the creation of Minuto vouchers.
