A thousand merchants accepting #bitcoin is greater and more valuable than a thousand companies adopting a #Bitcoin strategy..

Your bakery accepting #bitcoin is better than your State creating a #Bitcoin Strategic Reserve..

You choosing how to use #bitcoin, save and spend your energy and purchasing power in a self-sovereign way, gives your more freedom than anything else.

💯 - it’s also a great way to reach and teach the masses. It has a psychological effect too. Once people see merchants listing bitcoin as an option it’s like a subconscious affirmation that it’s here to stay and accepted. And when the Amazons and Apples of this world list paying with bitcoin/lightning as an option, it’s confirmation that it’s real and safe - almost like a stamp of approval for the previous naysayers. Needs to happen.

I believe it needs to be recognized as a good store of value before it can become widely use as a medium of exchange.

I agree 100%. At the butcher store here where I work in Florence Italy people are still making jokes about my bitcoin accepted sign. So mad. 😠

Ignoranti, teste di cazzo! 🤣😂 quando ci vuole, ci vuole..

Let them joke, we are the happy ones.. 🙂🫂

Complimenti per la tua scelta, sfortunatamente per me Firenze è lontana, ma nel caso ci passassi un giorno, di sicuro comprerò una fiorentina nel tuo negozio, in sats! 🤙🏼⚡🔥🧡

Where I live, the law requires me to track every little btc-purchase for taxes. Something tells me that's not sustainable or feasible without getting into troubles. Big problem!

How do they know when you use a lightning wallet?

Since all Crypto-Assets must be accounted for seamlessly, I can't just have some random expenses going "unknown", without getting into troubles at some point. The only way around is, to buy nonkyc at the bitcoin-atm for Fiat-Cash. But that's really just fiat with additional time waste.

Idk...

That's it.. you answered yourself, NOKYC.. it's like cash, that mantains value over time because can't be diluted.

You can stake it without none noticing wherever you want, and you can leave and transact with it without none noticing depending on your skills and the tools you use.

Yes takes time and effort, gives freedom and self sovereignty.

No solutions, only trade offs..
