The earth's most rare mineral is grootfonteinite. The entire known supply of it fits inside of a thimble with room to spare. They exist as microscopic grains embedded inside other minerals.
There is an entire mineral database that is very well curated if you are so inclined. Here is the entry for grootfontenite: https://www.mindat.org/min-46809.html

Scarcity = value? What can we do with a thimble full of grootfonteinite? π€
Beautiful! π We just planted our beds last spring, this year should be our first harvest sometime in April or early May
Our mission is to show Americans they can vote for better money leading up to this year's presidential election. We do this by distributing free stickers and flyers that you all put in public!
Every sticker and flyer has a QR code that links to an election-themed page about #bitcoin
Last month, 188 people scanned these QR codes and learned that a politician won't fix our problems, but better money will.
SMALL STICKERS β 82 scans
LARGE STICKERS β 76 scans
FLYERS β 30 scans
Thank you so much for getting involved! If you live in the USA, you can get involved this month here: https://voteforbetter.money/get-involved
This is the closest I have ever felt to being part of a political party! #VoteBitcoin
Sending flyers and stickers out w/ every order, feels great to help spread the word.
Tillage or oilseed radish can do absolute miracles for heavy soils. That tap root pushes incredibly deep and allows water to penetrate where it otherwise would not, and as it decomposes also adds organic matter and aids in soil aeration.
We grow sora regularly throughout the season. Love them best in the spring, since during summer they tend to be overly spicy and bulk up too quickly so they can become pilthy. Harvest them at around 1" or less in size, best when on the smaller size IMO.
Dulcinea we have grown but they never made it into the standard rotation. Very sweet! Nice flavor, but our soil is very heavy so for us some of the more blunt-rooted varieties performed better on our land.
The Salt&Pepper cukes are very popular but not a personal fav, even though they generally perform very well.
Definitely sounds like the right approach. I always try to ask, "You guys don''t accept Bitcoin (yet), do you?" And if they say No, then just just smile and move onβ but planting the seed is enough! If enough people ask, they maybe eventually they will get the bug and do the work on their own to start to look into it.
But like you mentioned, if you really push adoption and convince someone who is skeptical to accept Bitcoin, then they go through the setup and cost of doing it and then no one actually pays with Bitcoin, it can be counterproductive! They feel like they were right to be skeptical.
Baby steps! Plant the seeds, the rest will follow π±
Our IRL business offers customers a choice between added 3% credit card fees *on top* OR a 10% discount for bitcoin payments. Considering that most businesses operate on somewhere around a 30% margin or markup, being willing to offer customers a10% discount is basically already cutting any βprofitsβ by 1/3.
On the other hand, I personally believe when it comes to incentivizing #Bitcoin use, the onus shouldnβt be on small businesses at all. IMO it should really fall on #Bitcoiners who want to incentivize bitcoin adoption to be willing to pay MORE in order to convince businesses to accept bitcoin as payment. Flip the tables. We *want* to be able to SPEND bitcoin everywhere and anywhere. The only way to make that happen is to make it worth while for everyone involved.
The more we are willing to spend our bitcoin, the more businesses will accept it, the more valuable it becomes β and the cycle continues.
I know I am personally happy to pay a small mark up to help support Bitcoin-based businesses and services. Iβm also glad to offer a discount on my proof of work if you #paymeinbitcoin instead of fiat π€

Super-sleek interface, easy order flow. Works flawlessly!



NGL, I would totally get that shower curtain.
Running a node is the π€― moment. No matter how long you've been around Bitcoin, that changes everything.
Georgia here. The bees seem to be loving the maples and camellias rn https://v.nostr.build/5e4w.mp4 https://v.nostr.build/7xgv.mp4
π Look at those maple buds! We are still pulling sap from ours, they have not even begun to swell up.
Sun is shining and the bees are flying today. π
First time weβve seen them out so far this year. Spring is coming quick to the far north!
