Why are you writing in all caps lol. I feel like you’re yelling at me.
Local is my preference too.
Sounds frustrating.
I don’t really have any advice but I hope you feel ok.
Finding romantic reciprocity isn’t easy so at least don’t beat yourself up about it.
Sorry about your several broken hearts :(
What’s not working with the new person? No common ground? Different senses of humor? No chemistry?
Quantity of bitcoin is one thing.
Purchasing power of bitcoin is another. The value of bitcoin in dollars is another.
Volatility, by definition, measures changes in asset prices. In order to determine these asset prices you need to have metrics of relative value.
If you measure bitcoin in bitcoin, you can’t measure volatility.
Ok let’s replace price with purchasing power.
Bitcoin is volatile in terms of purchasing power, given that it is not in itself a unit of account.
I buy $60 of bitcoin today. I want to spend it tomorrow on groceries. The price of BTC went down and my $60 are now only worth $50. This is a consistent pattern. I don’t have day to day purchasing power stability.
I am talking about relatively short time frames given that we are talking about the use case of bitcoin as a practical way to transact on a daily basis.
I really didn’t
Yeah. Our mindset is the real world.
Bitcoin’s price fluctuates a lot. It’s volatile.
Could you please link to one for me to start with?
It's hard to give a bite-sized one liner. If you're truly interested, I'd recommend an article like this: https://vijayboyapati.medium.com/the-bullish-case-for-bitcoin-6ecc8bdecc1
Thank you
Yeah. I also find this problematic.
This is one of the points we’re curious about. We don’t understand why anyone would spend bitcoin if the economics of bitcoin (assuming it will increase in value significantly) only give you incentives to keep it/not spend it.
So how do you actually create a circular economy if there is no incentive to spend?
Yeah. The part that you keep in bitcoin would not be able to be part of your operating budget.
