Already paid 30 instead. It’s a bargain if you think about it

Too costly. How about 10 Bitcoin instead.

💡Help needed💡

I am thinking of running my btc and lightning node. I have access to a not really stable, not really good internet.

I am thinking between hosting my node at home, or hosting it on a VPS. I would like to use it for business purposes but with not too much traffic at the beginning.

What do you suggest, and why?

Thanks for your kindness! 🧡🫂

I want your bitcoin, tell me what I have to do to get it.

I believe that you cannot change the mind of persons who don't want to. At this point the best strategy could be to support the merchants that are brave enough to accept Bitcoin actually spending Bitcoin in their store. Spendl and replace, without using your stack. In this way merchants who accept Bitcoin gains new customers and at the same time opt out of fiat. Other merchants would gain their customers back and hence are incentivized to accept Bitcoin too.

Another idea came to my mind:

Maybe we shall promote different features/usecases that can only or more easily done by btc.

So let's say we don't say that start to use bitcoin because it is not controlled by state, supply can't be inflated, etc. Or to stack sats as a future "investment".

So we don't want people to use btc, but want them to do a task that requires the use of btc.

Examples:

* Support your favorite artists over the internet easily.

* Give tips easily.

* Earn money shitposting.

* Earn money directly with creating content.

* etc.

So we generate lots of usecase for using btc, because this is one of its strength that due to its open-sourceness, more development can be done in the field, which enhances market competition, and generates better and better products.

💡Controversial opinion💡

I think we shall spread bitcoin without telling it is bitcoin.

Why?

* BTC has bad reputation because of crypto

* BTC has bad reputation because of price volatility

* Anyway most people only care about utility, and not how things works.

So maybe we could have:

* new PayPal, Revolut, Wise app, that works with zaps at the backend

* you can topup your wallet with fiat, that is shown as fiat in wallet, but stored as btc

* you can withdraw fiat from wallet

* you can use the app as a lightning wallet

* put that it is a btc app in EULA that noone reads anyway... So we don't lie to anyone. Anyway we don't even know how banks and these payment apps hold our money...

I think this way, people would use it more.

A big unsolved problem for this idea in my opinion is the volatility. Because if we show money in fiat, instead of btc, it will change in value. So we need a way to have less or no volatility. I think @calle had an idea to solve volatility issue with futures maybe?

maybe Relai offer this? don't know if it is available in your country and if their light-KYC is light enough for you

Hello. First post. I'm a bit confused.

But … one could argue the panic, raised awareness, leading companies to invest in fixing the software, fended off a lot of serious problems. So I’m not sure it’s fair to say the Y2K bug wasn’t a problem.
