eternal virtues for uncertain times
That you are finding in Bitcoin a way to move forward despite the circumstances says a lot about its real value.
That's precisely why I like it so much: it's like a silent reminder among peers, a code that says, "We're still here, with our feet on the ground." Even if not everyone understands it yet, those who do... know why it matters.

Thinking about it like that, you're right... I think in the end it happened to me like it did to Siggy, from another perspective sometimes it's better not to open a thread of complex concepts, but rather connect from the familiar and sow a seed of curiosity.
You could answer something simple and quick:
It's another way to send money, but the big difference is that with Bitcoin you don't need a bank or a company in the middle. It works like internet money: no one controls it, no one can censor it, and it works 24/7 for anyone in the world. It's as if you were your own bank.
If you want, you can have a quick second line in case the person shows more interest:
It's scarce money like gold or silver, but digital. No one can print more or freeze it for you. That's why many see it as a way to save for the long term.
Yes, I was validating that, anyway here now in Brazil, and at least here in my city I would not have a way to spend my SATs directly on any business.
The truth is, they had a lot of rice, and producers began producing rice for animals, not for human consumption. The government encouraged this, and now there's no rice for human consumption, coinciding with some pests or something like that, which also affected production.
On the other hand, Japan holds treasury bonds from most countries, so many large countries will be affected by the decision made on Sunday.
But it is truly a kind of tragicomedy that it is the rice that triggers this whole disaster.
I was also reading that on Japanese TV they're showing how to make good tasting rice with old rice...something crazy. The current government doesn't want to import rice from the US, and the opposition wants to open the borders...Sunday will be decisive.

Damn, how sad, I have a best friend who suffered a lot with that, I know what it's like... :(
The other day I saw a funny video on YouTube of someone who placed a horn at the entrance of his house with the sound of gunshots, for some people who sat in front of his house at night......in a few seconds, everyone ran away, even the dogs....hahahahaha
