Unpopular Opinion: Your efforts to spend #Bitcoin are meaningless if the seller is just cashing out to dollars immediately.

For your actions to have meaning, the seller needs to keep the Bitcoin, and ideally seek to understand it more.

#yestr, this is the sad but true reality. Direct conversion from sats to fiat after receipt is good for adoption, but it doesn't hold much meaning. Just take advantage of the possibility for spending sats, but don't give those converting companies more than you have to."

I think there is still huge meaning in being able to pay in sats and having such easy conversions to fiat for a business.

Whether they stack sats or not will be something that will naturally evolve when fiat continues to lose value.

Yes

What kind of moron retailer would cash out of Bitcoin ๐Ÿคฃ

I'd be offering wages in sats if enough came through, and keeping as much as I could in sats after paying necessary expenses.
