Real conversation I just had at a (small) store.

“We need to charge an additional fee for credit cards because our main terminal stopped working”

“You should take bitcoin”

“It’s too volatile”

“Volatile to the upside, yeah. Just hold on to it”

“Have a good day”

The dollar has lost a quarter of its value in the last 4 years.

We are so fucking early.

the argument I like to make is that bitcoin isn't volatile at all. it's only volatile when compared to other currencies that are actually volaitle.

the value of bitcoin never actually changes, 1sat = 1sat

it's the value of bitcoin in relation to other currencies that change.

the usd value of bitcoin only changes when either the government starts to make the little printer go brrrr a little more, or when degens trade too much

Yup this is a good way to to. Unfortunately the worker was not interested in going any deeper 😂
