“Money is money.”

That’s what most businesses say—so they accept bitcoin, ETH, XRP, whatever.

But if you think bitcoin and crypto are the same,

YOU'RE MISSING OUT ON THE MOST LOYAL CUSTOMERS YOU'VE NEVER TARGETED

Bitcoiners and crypto holders aren’t the same.

Not even close.

Most crypto holders are just gambling.

They might think it’s cool that you accept their token—

but it won’t drive them to action.

Bitcoiners are built different.

They’re on a mission.

And they’re watching to see if you are too.

If you want to reach them, you have to signal that you see the difference.

That starts by accepting bitcoin—not crypto.

You’re not excluding anyone.

You’re choosing to INCLUDE the group that actually cares.

You might not get bitcoin payments right away.

That’s fine.

What you will get is attention from a group that rewards alignment.

And over time, that turns into loyalty.

Most businesses don’t realize how naturally they align with Bitcoiners:

→ Long-term thinking

→ Products that last

→ Messaging that’s genuine, not performative

If that’s what you already value, plant your flag.

Extend the olive branch.

Bitcoiners will notice.

And when they do, they don’t just buy once.

They become your favorite customers—

the militant ones who shill your product to everyone they know.

It happened for me.

It can happen for you.

Hi ben 🤟😉🏴‍☠️ You’re absolutely right. Bitcoiners aren’t just customers; they’re long-term supporters who value businesses that align with their principles such as decentralization, sound money, and sustainability. It’s not about just accepting a payment method; it’s about showing a commitment to values that resonate deeply with this community. When businesses genuinely embrace Bitcoin, it signals that they understand the bigger picture and have a shared vision for the future. Over time, that loyalty pays off not only in repeat business but in powerful word-of-mouth promotion from a highly engaged, passionate customer base. It’s a win-win for both the business and the Bitcoin community.

I was just talking to a local CBD dispensary that they should take BTC to gain businesses and they are interested. Is there a website to send them to or anything?

I don't have anything specific.

Also, idk if in person Bitcoin sales is a huge business gainer now unless it's near a bit Bitcoin hub
