Testing first CC payment from Strike Bill pay.

First step toward zero fiat checking account.

The difference of strike to a tradicional bank is 0, independently of the currency it uses..

Need to demonstrate to wifey. She spooks easily.

I'm not saying they don't just arbitrage, I'm saying they're signal to the market that the dollar jig is up.

You can also plug strike bill pay into venmo

average_bitcoiner 4mo ago

I'm going to plug it in EVERYWHERE.

Wait you mean for paying out from venmo? That's a big unlock for wifey to pay some folks. Thnx for the alpha m8.

How?

There are a few issues that have made me hesitate using Strike Bill Pay: 1) parting ways with sats can be painful 2) tax complications 3) budgeting is more difficult 4) volatility

average_bitcoiner 4mo ago

3 will be a hurdle to overcome for sure. I have grand ideas of replicating YouNeedABudget but enabling it to work with Strike API or other bitcoin APIs

Funny you mention YNAB. I tried doing this by adding Strike as a budget account and doing manual adjustments daily to account for volatility but it just didn’t feel right.

average_bitcoiner 4mo ago

You were able to add Strike in YNAB?!

Sorry for getting you excited and not being specific. I *manually* added Strike as a budget account and would add every transaction manually. Daily, I would do a manual balance adjustment to accommodate volatility.

How did it go? Thinking about doing the same.
