You know what would be a good idea? A bitcoin only grocery store.
Bitcoiners are the best customers I’ve ever had.
They’re loyal. They rebuy. They tell their friends.
They want you to win—and they’ll help make it happen.
And right now, almost NO ONE is building for them.
That means there’s still time to become the Bitcoin-aligned brand in your category.
In most industries, Bitcoiners don’t have a default go-to.
No trusted shop, no favorite label, no company that “gets them.”
That could be you.
And once they pick their brand, they don’t switch easily.
You don’t have to become a bitcoin company.
You don’t need to ditch dollars.
You don’t need to be perfect.
Just make something good.
Accept bitcoin (not crypto).
And let people know who you’re aligned with.
I did it with wine.
Now Bitcoiners are 100% of my customer base.
Not because I ran some flawless playbook—
but because I paid attention to the right customers and leaned in.
Bitcoiners are your perfect customer.
They don’t need gimmicks.
They just want to know you see them.
The lift is minimal.
The downside is basically zero.
The upside? Tremendous.
We're looking to spread this experience to extremely high quality brands via nostr:nprofile1qqsqkaay6mxplgv3f9z0ep0rq4w8jrte3rvcm43xd2cgehsjevglmdcqewx80 and need to hear back from bitcoiners as to what makes a company a "bitcoin company" that you would support like this?
Discussion
While I would love to see that, I don't think bitcoiners are concentrated enough in many places to make that much of a difference to brick and mortar businesses.
Online CPG brands are a different story
I think the reality will be Whole Foods integrating bitcoin payments. I didn’t do it but you can pay for McDonalds in bitcoin in El Salvador.
Is that still the case?
Laws have changed quite a bit
Was looking into this for a startup I am working on. Ibex does payment integration for these kind of retail establishments. I paid for water and coffee at the Hilton in San Salvador in Bitcoin and realized I am just pumping Paris Hiltons stack.
I'd be surprised if they didn't have it auto convert to dollars
Meh. As much as we like to speculate on the cuck dollar debt game, Some people do get it, Sort of. It is different coming from a perspective of building wealth vs preserving it. Bitcoin is making owning a vineyard in Paonia economically viable for you. Someone from a developing country would trade their lives with their family to be you. But people like the Hiltons need to think about how to go to a developing economy and build wealth there. A little bit of FIAT, A little bit of Bitcoin. One persons terrorist is another person’s freedom fighter.
