⚡The Definitive Bitcoin Acquisition Tier List (From Sovereign Stackers to Fiat Clowns)

A+ — Earn it.

Sell goods or services for #bitcoin. Pure, sovereign, uncut sats straight from people who actually value your time.

A — P2P Cash Trades.

Handshakes over handshakes. Just pray your new “freedom-loving friend” isn’t wearing a wire.

A- — nostr:npub1gdfr0r0an32jalqryqlvpn3gsef2hu832wv6kp5p2gt2aqa2n8yqd42ffw / nostr:npub1sqn6rpml88nq8khuvvneuqztfmvalpsarr8grkwy837hzdw63ajs6t5net

Anonymous trades online. Like Tinder for Bitcoin - except when it works, it actually feels good.

B+ — Mining at Home.

Turn electricity into freedom. Sounds like a jet engine, feels like victory.

B — Getting Paid in BTC.

Your boss thinks it’s edgy. You know it’s monetary evolution.

B- — No-KYC Exchanges (HodlHodl, etc.)

Solid privacy play. Just don’t cry if the site disappears mid-trade.

C+ — Buying from Friends/Family.

Trust-based, but holidays get weird when you’re the only one who sold the top.

C — Bitcoin ATMs.

Like a vending machine that hates you. 15% fee for the privilege of convenience.

C- — Gift Cards → BTC.

Feels like laundering your own allowance. 10/10 for creativity though.

D+ — “No-KYC” CEXs.

If it sounds too good to be true, it’s probably run by a guy named Vlad.

D — Mining Pools.

You’re “helping the network” but mostly just donating hash to a corporation with better lawyers.

D- — Bitcoin ETFs.

You don’t own Bitcoin. You own a picture of someone else’s Bitcoin.

F+ — Gambling Sites.

Win big or lose everything. Either way, you’ll have a story (and no sats).

F — Begging for Sats.

“Plz zap me.” Bold strategy, Cotton.

F- — Coinbase / Binance.

Hand over your ID, privacy, and dignity. You now officially own government-approved Bitcoin. Congrats, stacker.

Sats custodied by coinbase (and co) are an F- but KYC sats custodied by the owner are light years beyond an ETF imo

Hard to believe

You think shares in an ETF are superior to sats an individual controls / hodls keys for that were sourced from KYC rails? Maybe I’m misunderstanding you

lol no, I’m being facetious. The answer is clear

Thank god 😂
