I disagree with one part… coffeshops accepting Bitcoin. This bit matters a whole lot. Not just coffee, all shops. Why does it matter? It makes people think in sats and that is key.

Let’s take Switzerland as a case study, it started with major online shops, then regional taxes, then BTC available at any train station in the country, then local shops in selected cities, then post (also a bank with confederal ownership) accepting Bitcoin in and out, now major payment terminal provider is getting ready to roll out crypto options in thousands of shops.

When people accumulate BTC they often think in FIAT. Spending BTC for goods makes people think in sats, and that is key imo.

Honey badger is a speculator. If honey badger does not give a fuck about people adopting BTC for everyday use what is honey badger betting on? Exchanging BTC for goods does not necessarily mean converting it to FIAT (unless shop is stupid or we deep in a bear market). Once businesses with a good BTC strategy will constantly outperform their competitors the rest will follow.

in the context of bitcoin , honey badger refers to bitcoin itself ... not the speculator , and the implication is that nothing can stop it - not whether one can buy sex dolls with it online , not whether or not it is feeding or banking the worlds poor , not lifting up the downtrodden , not whether lightning works , not whether it "scales" , etc ad nauseum...

it means bitcoin dgaf about any of that ...

it exists . period .

First time I hear honey badger being used in this context. See, the beautiful thing about Proof of Work is that it also involve the work of humans. These humans believe in running the honey badger at their expenses for a diverse set of reasons. Without these humans working the honey badger stops to live. All it needs for the honey badger to die is for humans to stop “giving a fuck” about it.
