Today I sent my 80 yr old father some sats to spend at pick n pay in South Africa.

Talking him through setting up a lightning wallet : 2 minutes

Talking him through sending me an invoice: 2 minutes

Sending the sats: speed of light for fraction of a cent

At which point he asked me “that’s cool, and how do I convert this to real money?”

Processing just how deeply lodged in our collective psyche the fiat illusion/delusion is: work in progress!

That question from a man who’s read the creature from Jekyll island and understands the problem!
