On the argument that...

"wE hAve tO spEnD biTcOiN tO mAke iT wORk"

Is stupid and time will fix all, if you just relax and have patience.

The fear that something valuable won't be spent is backwards thinking. The new paradigm will be what can be built so well as to get someone to spend their BTC? Some bullshit you drop ship on FBA made in a chop shop in China does NOT get that done.

When we get there, it is when we actually get to the point where "Bitcoin fixes this". The entire planet has been poisoned by fiat thinking.

This is why we have fiat houses, fiat food, fiat roads, etc. We literally have roads built by the Romans in 200 BCE that are in better shape then roads built by Americans in 1975.

The reason people don't really spend bitcoin right now is very little is built well enough or has enough lasting value to warrant it. There is very little with enough value to make someone who has the luxury of saving surplus convert said surplus into something other than bitcoin.

You want me to spend my Bitcoin beyond a bit here and there for fun on lightning? Give me enough value to make me part with it. Stop the fiat thinking, when we have enough value being created bitcoin will be spent. This is the point that many miss including many maxis and just about all shitcoiners.

FWIW if you want to spend BTC go ahead. If you want BTC when I buy from you fine, I will convert as part of the transaction with something like strike. On my stack? GFY! 😂
