The journey is interesting but the conclusion is spot on. What if you don’t tell the internet about what you are doing? I understand physical life is important but if we use a monetary construct every day in this physical world that is terrible we need to talk about it both physically and online. The issue in the physical world is, people feel like there is no alternative. I recently bought a little drum for my 9 month old son via P2P marketplace. A kid and mom opened the door and I asked “how would you like to be paid, in bitcoin or in worthless euros” and the mom was looking at me like I was a scammer and said “we’ll take the real physical euros”. I handed over 2 10 euro bills and asked the kid “do you trust me? And she looked at me and said yes. I said, you shouldn’t. How do you know these bills are real?” She looked at them in the light and could see the watermark, felt the paper and said “they are real” and ran away with the money. I nodded the mom and she smiled uncomfortably.

How do we spread the word there is a better system?

Today every newspaper in the Netherlands and the majority of news outlets are recycling the US energy agency story about the consumption of bitcoin is as much as Greece or Australia. How can we tackle the constant stream of misinformation that the majority of people consume?

You are now on Nostr only and I miss your input on Twitter. How do you increase your reach to people? I think you create valuable content, but it should have maximum reach. The mom and kid should be handed the correct information and truth, how will we ever reach them?

As both a secular Bitcoin (and Apple) user, people respond better to the notion that it's fun thing that can useful, than joining a cult)))

Most small business owners are happy being paid in anything as long they can make use of it.
