i don't need a discount to spend bitcoin. i spend bitcoin as often as i can. why? i believe that im helping to facilitate the revolution that we so often speak about by actively using bitcoin. if i tell the world that bitcoin is better money and then don't use it, i would be a hypocrite.

if you're afraid of spending your bitcoin because you want to HODL, then there is an extremely easy fix for this. it's called 'spend and replace'.

if you were going to spend cash for an item, but the vendor accepts bitcoin, spend the bitcoin, and then immediately use the cash you were going to spend to buy back the sats that you just spent. easy.

(i am still learning about bitcoin, but I “think” i understand fees are charged for every transaction, and if i use a traditional exchange the sats are kyc.)

Ejemplo: i buy a 🍺 for $5 and use sats, how can I take that $ and make it sats again?

Slim chance, but if you can find one of these ATMs, you can buy bitcoin over Lightning, KYC-free:

That will not help where I am. 🤭

I think we have one atm in town —never used it

Are there not other options? I’m just confused and trying to learn 🤓

There exist KYC-free exchanges. RoboSats and the Bisq Network are two that I know of, but if you search for them, you'll find more.

The best way, however, is to earn bitcoin by producing something of value, and accepting only bitcoin as payment.

The ATM in your town might be the answer you're looking for. They usually have service fees, though.

If you're buying a beer with sats, sats is the money. You have $5 worth of sats, and you trade it for beer.
