Does your landlord or local supermarket accept stars on github as payment?

There's your answer

You need to provide a service connected to your project, this is regardless of how many people use your project.



My local supermarket does! It's called GitPay. I just provide my github username at checkout and they deduct starts from my repositories. The exchange rate is roughly 10 euro per 26.2 stars. I generally get better rates at the bank by the convenience of GitPay has made it hard to resist.
