I thought wero is just a way to transfer money to family and friends. I just learned that it's a whole lot more, so letting anyone outside your contacts request and send payments makes sense. Although by now most registered phone numbers should appear in some breach/leak, which makes this kind of a stupid idea if I'm not mistaken. This also completely obliterates the need for syncing your contacts wtf lol.
