226 sats \ 2 replies \ @siggy47 OP 22 Jul \ parent \ on: Paying With Bicoin Through Square - I wasn't prepared bitcoin

The rubber hits the road when I'm standing there ready to pay. If I can pay with bitcoin, I will, whether or not I'm benefitting anyone but myself. Maybe it's just to make myself feel good. I can't help thinking that paying with bitcoin is better than not paying with bitcoin, even if the real benefit is negligible.

This I agree with. Note that to me personally, being able to spend sats directly is very important. Even though you get to know and hang with a lot of people if you depend on selling sats to friends for cash to survive, it would be better to spend sats at the person delivering the service. No "middlemen". Last week I had to buy a gift card for a supermarket chain to feed myself, instead of my usual mom&pop groc shop, which sucks even more.

I would go for it if I were in your place.
