Gm,

On a month's long quest to delete all my bank accounts and just survive with one transferwise account

I already got my landlord and cleaners to accept btc so other than paying tax, I can almost get by entirely on BTC or my btc credit card

Fuck banks

Fucking awesome ๐Ÿ–ค

What was your strategy to convince your payees to take btc?

Very interested in this as well.

+1

This seems like the biggest hurdle

At first I used the carrot

"If you take BTC I'll pay you 5% more"

Didn't work

Then I said

"If you don't accept btc, you'll need to find a new tenant"

Worked fast

GM! Wow, thatโ€™s really cool. Iโ€™ve got to see if I can do this

If you move to a city that accepts btc everywhere like Lugano you can delete transferwise. We need more orangepilling in other places.

Legend. I'm currently working to do the same. I've closed all my bank accounts, and I'm currently working to transition my company over to BTC. I use cash app and visa giftcards to pay suppliers. Fuck banks... roughly!

Congratulations bro!

Which bitcoin credit card would you recommend?

In Canada the only option we have is shakepay, but it's pretty good

I heard of it, in the US we canโ€™t get it!

Hopefully your centralized credit card provider doesnโ€™t fail at some point ๐Ÿ˜ฐ

I'm interested, why transferwise over the competition? Is there some reasoning to it?

I already had an account with them for many years, and they basically do everything I need, didn't even really look at anything else

Fair enough ๐Ÿ‘Œ๐Ÿผ

Welcome to the future. Do keep us posted. ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿผ

Gm ๐Ÿ™Œ

Sick!

Good morning, nice work๐Ÿ˜Šโ˜•

GM.

We are on this path as well. Converting the remaining fiat reserves as fast as we can. Can you share any details on the โ€œbtc credit cardโ€? Assuming this is something from transferwise?

Shakepay in Canada

Can spend your BTC through a visa debit card

๐Ÿ‘ Requires holding a fiat balance though. Ideally if going this route would be to rack up the credit tokens first then pay it off at the end of the month with bitcoin.

I like the sats back and the random shakepaid feature

I hold a sats and fiat balance in here (checking/hot savings) and just sell a bit when fiat gets low or I'm about to buy something expensive

Shakepay sounds a lot like a bank to me:

- KYC

- Custodial

- Fiat conversion

- Incentivize using the Visa network

I pay the following in Bitcoin :

Beef from my Farmer K&C cattle

Barber South Austin Barber Shop

Personal Trainer

Amazon through gift cards btc company

Sometimes planes tickets with btc company gift cards

3forks restaurant twice a year

The only things I will never pay in Bitcoin are taxes. I'll find fiat for that
