In addition to providing a means to pay bills with sats, Bitcoiners need to be creating and providing strategic guidance on how to manage cash flow when operating on a sat standard and using credit cards. Obviously, people should always be spending within their means regardless of their unit of account. But when paying bills with sats, people will need to be conscious of where they are in the cycle, large known expenditures (e.g. tax, surgery, etc.), and ensuring they can continue stacking. Overall, this concept does provide a good on ramp to bitcoin, especially when you explain to people that their purchasing power increases through every cycle.

It’s the design, too. Regulations force them to be ugly.

Typical asshole attorney response.

How so?

How so? Is there a swan coin?

I’ve had discussions with River and Swan this week and both stated they are seeing a lot of inflow from #realestate investors.

You’d be better off reading The Great Taking by David Webb. Self custody your bitcoin. Everything else will come down to real world action taken by those with the necessary will and commitment to a higher purpose. Personally, running off to some third world country isn’t a plan, it’s putting off the inevitable conflict.

I see. I’m trying to get up to speed on these issues, but I’m not from the tech world so my focus is on understanding the business/individual’s use case. In my own line of work (commercial real estate) I’m trying to get owners to put BTC on their balance sheet a la MSTR, so for me high-volume payments aren’t an issue as I’m using it as a store of value asset on the balance sheet. As a bitcoiner, I do want to see this develop into a system that permits me to buy my groceries and stuff in a way that makes sense. The ecash is fascinating because I have a sense it could be used within a cooperative model as a form of payment between different members, with the coop being formed around a central stockpile of BTC or a LN node or something. This is where my lack of technical understanding comes into play.

It’s seems that at some level, a service provider needs to exist to facilitate the scaling needed for a payment network. Does that mean it’s back to third party banking system?

Sorry about the typos.

There is subset of people who have a purity test that you must pass, and if you don’t you’re not worthy or something. I’ve notified that these people seem to prioritize privacy as an end in and of itself. Ultimate think this will become a dead end. The ends of Bitcoin do not culminate in privacy.

And your serious because you like to shit talk? Go smoke more of what you’re selling.

He’s not a serious individual.

Nice work!

Peter, I think you’re an alright guy. I don’t get the hate. If people have this much hate, I wonder if they are truly in it for the bitcoin or if there is some underlying ideological issue at play.

In some cases it may be more or less moral. Doesn’t negate the reality of property and property rights.

nostr:npub10vlhsqm4qar0g42p8g3plqyktmktd8hnprew45w638xzezgja95qapsp42 perfectly sums things up. Store of value is king, everything else is downstream. The biggest buck in the SoV game right now is #realestate and taking it down requires ZERO new stuff; just 1) BTC, 2) strong custody solutions, and 3) sound business policies. With those, the entire fiat monetary premium in #realestate can be transmuted to BTC (see nostr:npub1s5yq6wadwrxde4lhfs56gn64hwzuhnfa6r9mj476r5s4hkunzgzqrs6q7z and nostr:npub1v5k43t905yz6lpr4crlgq2d99e7ahsehk27eex9mz7s3rhzvmesqum8rd9 ), transforming the physical structures from financial instruments themselves to equipment on the balance sheet of a real estate operating company. Owners still get a dividend and protect their wealth over a 5-10 year period (typical deal length in commercial RE). I think this is the most logical objective for all hodlers: climb the store of value ladder as fast as possible. No funky tokens, no changes to the protocol, just the 3 things mentioned above. nostr:note1x52nxhckfawf0jlrys9l7hny80y20w2uqglsxpd8syvysm9ezp0stw4978

How get?

No. I said we should act Christian. There is nothing un-Christian in the concept of property rights. To say they don’t exist leads to incoherence. Don’t tangle that up with our obligations to act charitably to the poor and needy.
