I’ve always been good at 2 things- investing and spending, but not particularly saving.

Going BTC only eliminated the thought that comes with investing, by saving, but in corn. It basically sorted my spending habits. I pay my cc bills weekly, leave a cash sum in the bank for my mortgage payment and the rest goes right into bitcoin.

Some things may be worth $100, but they just aren’t worth 100,000 sats. I think that says something about our consumer culture, most don’t value the fiat whether they realize it or not, so it gets spent.

I still spend, but not nearly as much- and when I do spend on credit I get cash back in sats, all the sweeter.

Saving in bitcoin is just fun compared to saving in fiat.

Can’t really explain it, but I think I’ll be bank less within 2 years tops & I can’t wait.

And to clarify- I’m not unbanked, I will have to get there, just bitcoin only from a savings and investment standpoint.

I know I’m late to the party but this thought was just in my mind. I’ve been here since 2017 but made mistakes along the way. I wish I realized what i mentioned in this post sooner.

The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago, the second best time is today.

What exchange are you using to do this?

In Canada I use Shakepay for their preloaded credit card. Shakepay has higher fees for swaps and sending so I don’t use this for savings, just the card.

Bitcoin well for all savings and DCA’s, you e-transfer funds and it sends it direct to cold storage with a pretty low spread, right around 1% I believe

Ahh nice, I use Strike in the US. Have you tried Bull Bitcoin at all? Wish their services were offered here

I do have an account set up but I haven’t used their platform yet. I think btc well has slightly lower fees

I haven’t heard anything but good stuff about bull bitcoin though
