To anyone who receives their paycheque in #Bitcoin:

How do you go about paying bills that cannot be paid via credit card, like a mortgage?

Genuinely curious, because I've been considering making the leap since it became available in Canada via services like Shakepay, that allow for direct deposit.

The amount of normies I've had come to me and ask if they should buy (specifically) XRP and memecoins over the past month is insane.

I politely try to explain why I ultimately think #bitcoin is the superior asset to be accumulating for years to come, but they don't like to listen.

It's hard to wrap my head around what holding XRP really does for anyone. Shitcoins kind of make more sense imo, in and out, make some $, whatever.

I spent my time in NFTs from basically the ground floor and took part in shitcoinery, I get it, it can be alluring- especially if your goal is to 'make fiat'.

I made tons and lost tons, but in the end it was valuable because the losses brought me back to where I began, which was the right place all along- BTC. Painful to look back, but I refer to it as my 'Crypto-College Tuition', a learning experience if you will.

The reason that I got into bitcoin was purely based off of values- Love of freedom, hating authority, and being naturally skeptical. I consider myself lucky that my values aligned to what this asset stands for, because if they didn't, I probably would have scurried away from the space.

I fear that for this reason, most will be onboarded into crypto with the goal of making fiat, becoming exit liquidity and then left with a bad taste in their mouth. Stranded without the set of values that brings them to the right place, that place being bitcoin.

I know there's a light bulb moment, I had it myself, I got there myself. But how do we help our peers get there? I'm not in the business of changing minds, but I'm not willing to give up, I'd like to see my people see the light.
