I’m not sure we are talking about the same thing. Saving bitcoin for your future generations/descendants and spending bitcoin today are not mutually exclusive activities. How would bitcoin ever become universally used/accepted for future generations if everyone today had the mindset that you shouldn’t spend meaningful amounts of it?

Bitcoin makes it possible for more people to think long term than fiat does. It is inclusive and empowering in that way. But that does not mean that people trying to earn it today do not have immediate financial obligations. An artist performing online for tips, or a merchant with an online shop, for example, would soon go out of business if everyone who supports them pays them only 1 or 2 cents of relative purchasing power, regardless of whether that payment is in sats or fiat, because the demands of their immediate financial obligations outweighs their desire to save for future generations.

By refusing to spend bitcoin in meaningful amounts, we handicap and sabotage the very system we wish to see come into place.

It is not my place to determine where you spend your money, or vice versa, although I’m sure some people may read this and think I’m just trying to tell them what to do. But if we value bitcoin, and if we value nostr as a place where a circular bitcoin economy can flourish, then we all have to be willing to pay people more than 21 sats at a time until we see significant increase in its relative purchasing power.

Salute to that 🫡🧡💜

I hear you and I actually agree with much of what you said. You’re right that today, in practical terms, we do measure things in fiat. That’s the current reality, and sats do have a real-world purchasing power, no doubt. I spend sats. I earn in sats. I stack, and I live on a Bitcoin standard. So I’m very aware of the trade offs and the value.

When I speak about the value of 21 sats, I’m not talking about what it can buy at this very moment. I’m talking about how Bitcoin is changing the game. Value isn’t just what a sat can buy today. It’s what it represents over time: energy, work , digital property rightsand sovereignty.

Fiat forces us into short term thinking. Bitcoin invites us to zoom out. So yes, maybe 21 sats is worth a few cents today. But try finding 21 sats on this earth once the block subsidy ends and demand explodes in a world waking up to this technology. We’re playing a long game here.

So I’m not pretending. I’m building for tomorrow. Appreciate the discussion thanks for sharing your perspective 👌🏼 and I’m sure we’ll both smile when sats are the standard 😅🧡🤷‍♂️

Cheers from Munich my friend 👊🏼

I love that. Would make me wanna go shopping there. But it’s only tested in CH right?

GM have a happy Friday 🤙🏼🧡
