Many npubs don't seem to get that the things they're using and doing cost money NOW, so zapping someone providing services 2 sats and adding

"⚡⚡⚡That's generational wealth 😁"

in the comment just feels like we're being mocked, because the running costs are billing 10.000x-1.000.000x EVERY MONTH.

Bitcoiners have no sense of what things actually cost TODAY, and this is slowing adoption because people won't blink at spending $5 on something, but ask for 5000 satoshis and they're like,

How about, I give you 5 satoshis and you hodl it for 5 years, and then pay the bills? 🤔

This is why businesses tend to price in fiat, even if they accept Bitcoin. Fiat gives people some orientation about the appropriateness of the price.

ime when people see fiat they see it directly linked to or derived from the cost of doing business. Priced in sats seems almost made up because it has to be.
