Replying to Avatar Guy Swann

A short story:

So I've been trying to get a lot of renovations and work done on the house and trying to finish the basement. I've recently gotten an estimate for putting a fence around the yard for the dogs.

It was a little more than I hoped but I had intended to just move forward, but they wanted a significant deposit immediately to get started. This immediately ran me into the headache of going from Bitcoin to USD in a quick and inexpensive manner.

This was also while ACH transfers that I've done to move the dollars to Fold (no way I'm spending thousands and not getting sats back on it), are suddenly taking 3x as long. A problem that started when SVB blew up.

After realizing that this was going to take a 2% fee on CashApp to sell, an ACH to my bank, then another ACH to my Fold, I decided to give a pitch for them to save me all those steps and just accept Bitcoin directly with the 1% fee using OpenNode.

The guy I was working with was interested and on board with my argument, but the owner refused despite the fact that it would obviously save them money and mean I could pay the deposit in 10 minutes time with no selling fee at all.

At this point I decided I was going to do something, especially with these sorts of jobs that involve large transfers which are a huge pain in dollars. I was just going to take the time to find someone who would accept Bitcoin.

I politely declined to do business with them. My response:

"Thanks man, appreciate the reply. I'm gonna look for other contractors here for a bit because I'd rather not build a relationship with a company that makes me have to revert to using a banking system that I literally could not despise more, or trust any less."

"I may get back in touch with you in a few weeks if there seems no other good option. No hard feelings, I do appreciate you taking this to the owner."

I added some choice words about the banking system for flair. ๐Ÿ˜†

The worker I was chatting with immediately agreed and then we started a short back and forth about how corrupt the banks were, why Bitcoin (of course he said crypto, lol) was the future, and HE brought up how the Fed was going to push a CBDC.

"Same. The more we use Bitcoin, the more irrelevant their attempt to centralize it is.

If the day comes that they push a CBDC on us, I'll officially be refusing to do business with anyone who doesn't accept Bitcoin, because I'm not touching that crap."

He responded with "Agreed!"

... that's where we left it.

------------------------------------------------------------------

I just got a text message tonight from the guy. He said the owner is willing to work with #Bitcoin if I hadn't found someone else yet.

I think it's time that I will start pitching the case for Bitcoin, in short and sweet bullet points, with every company I work with โ€” & where it feels like it makes sense, I'm going to refuse to do business with anyone who doesn't accept Bitcoin.

We have weight in the market. We need to be the intransigent minority. Bitcoin won't save the economy if no one knows how to use it, or is too afraid and too panicked to try something new when the shit hits the fan. The time to push for integration is now.

Happy Pi Day! Which one are you choosing? ๐Ÿฅง๐Ÿ˜

Look at that โ€ฆ we made it. Whereโ€™s NOAH? Try to find us. ๐Ÿ˜‰

At this point, itโ€™s too risky to NOT buy a little bit of bitcoin โ€” even a little bit. ๐Ÿ˜‰
