It’s the economy. CRE is a mess. Most people did not go back to the office and many who did ended up getting laid off anyways. My line of work(commercial furniture) is a good gauge of economic health and I can tell you it’s not healthy. Businesses aren’t growing at all. At best they’re replacing and even that is rare right now.

Someday I hope I’m poor enough to do some of the RTJ golf trail in bama.

NY and CA are not quite accurate. Upstate NY has huge tourism around the lakes and people travel from all over the world to see CA’s nature (Yosemite, Tahoe, Big Sur, etc.).

ATTENTION CARNIVORES 🥩 : Nationally acclaimed Meat & Seafood Company Beck & Bulow is now accepting #Bitcoin onchain & Lightning payments both in store & online 🙌

They are accepting orders online & ship to all 50 states.

https://www.beckandbulow.com/

When I first found their butcher shop last summer, I asked to pay in BTC at checkout, because, on seeing the quality of their huge selection, I knew I would be ordering all my meat from them.

At the time, the team didn't have a good way to accept BTC, so...

we took a low-time preference approach.

Over the course of the next 8 months, the staff & I became good friends. I went to their carnivore meetup, we went shooting together, & I grabbed lunch with the owners to talk more about BTC infrastructure options for merchants.

Importantly, I never pressured them to do anything. We just kept the conversation rolling in person and over text. As time went on and BTC appreciated in price, their urgency grew.

Here is a testament to their conviction, they are not only accepting BTC, but...

#Bitcoin is now a cornerstone of their employee 401k plan. The company has committed to hold all payments made in BTC, online or in the store, indefinitely in cold storage.

Craziest of all, the company has put 20% of their treasury reserves into #Bitcoin 🤯

They began by selling meat door to door & at farmers' markets. A serendipitous series of events led to the co-founders acquiring a buffalo ranch in New Mexico.

Through proof of work their meats are now in over 1,000 restaurants & stores in New Mexico.

My challenge to you carnivores is to visit them online & give them a warm welcome to the #Bitcoin community by trying their amazing products!

Let's test the strength of their payment processor IBEX 😁

Way to go nostr:npub16vrkgd28wq6n0h77lqgu8h4fdu0eapxgyj0zqq6ngfvjf2vs3nuq5mp2va . I’ve been buying you locally, but B&B’s bulk packages are an unreal deal. I’ll give them a shot.

Thank you. Great feature.

Where has nostr:npub1grk0tx6kqzvp86jvxzqmr8va2f0hdklj2xj6qwymf04z0saxhx8svlelrn been? I thought she’d have something to say about the “Buy Bitcoin” sign auction.

Me too. The dm highlights why the person is muted.

Not sure what to think about the PGA equity payouts. A nice gesture I guess?

Some people literally have more money than they know what to do with.
