What’s everybody’s experience with paying for services with Bitcoin locally? I had a service repair person come to the house today and paid in fiat. It didn’t occur to me til after the worker left to ask if they accepted Bitcoin. It seems like a pretty decent way to drive adoption though, especially working with self employed people.

Have others had luck with this?

I live only paying in Bitcoin from 2018... no more fiat for me. Yes, is hard in the beginning. The hard part is to start earning BTC and not buying it anymore. That will drive you to live in the Sat Standard and do not think anymore in fiat.

That’s awesome! Do you feel like you’ve converted a lot of local vendors yourself?

Why do you think I wrote all these 60+ guides? https://darthcoin.substack.com/s/english/archive?sort=new Do you think that all these 10+ years in Bitcoinlandia I was just sitting ducks and wait? Example here: https://darthcoin.substack.com/p/a-bitcoin-adoption-story

Lol I’ve read some of your guides, yes. I haven’t read all of your material. I wasn’t coming to you for a guide, rather just asking a question from human to human

asking a question from human to human

Do you think we are humans on internet? 😂😂😂 Think about that.

I already answered your question. I almost forgot how is to use fiat money to pay. You should try paying with BTC more often.

Every day you are using BTC to pay is a day less for the banksters. Every day you are using BTC to pay you are making BTC stronger and you are closer to real freedom.

You will remember my words.
