i think keeping your bitcoin off exchanges and being patient is the only real instrument plebs need.

be patient and ... then sell?
if you consider spending your bitcoin as a sell event, yes. its almost like we created the perfect money but now we dont wanna use it. but i get what you’re saying. as long as inflation and money printing exist, bitcoin will be a store of value first and a medium of exchange second.
tough for me to see a world in my lifetime where you trade 0.1 btc for a house or business, and then don't regret the trade 5-10 years later, but we shall see.
Regret the trade while comfortably living inside a house?
Or keep the bitcoin and sleep in the cold and rain for 10 years and maybe die of some disease?
If you’re looking at a house as an investment vehicle then absolutely.
If you’re looking at a home as a shelter of comfort and stability where you can raise your children and have a good life it changes the equation.
It also changes the equation as to where one sits in their stacking.
Imagine it’s 2030 and bitcoin is at a million. Someone stacking across the 2020s could easily find themselves in that situation where they’re not looking for strictly a monetary investment but a quality of life investment.
