0 sats \ 3 replies \ @jk_14 OP 14 Apr 2023 \ parent \ on: HODL is obsolete. Hodl by SPEND & REPLACE - must be the new bitcoiners MANTRA bitcoin
As Peter Todd wrote somewhere here: we have got only a single chance to fix money. There won't be any further.
And we are definitely in the middle of: "then they fight you" Gandhi's phase (SEC and US govt anti-Bitcoin crusade, with cut-off banks, etc)
It looks like there is non-zero risk we may not succeed to the phase: "then you win"...
Due to headache.
I would like to agree with you but I think you are going a bit overboard.
If people just demand to be paid in BTC, that will also just fix this "spending issue".
So no, bitcoin won't lose just because not enough people spend it. Not enough people ask to be paid in bitcoin.
Basically this: #164622
The way you phrase your comments here sound like: "my way or the highway"

people new to Bitcoin - will ask to be paid in bitcoin only if they see it's utilized this way by people already having it ("ok, let's try it, then...")

I think people new to bitcoin have a lot of stuff to learn and get used to before caring about this.
I would consider getting paid in bitcoin to be one of the last steps to become a "true bitcoin maxi".
Btw... we are on SN. Aren't we spending our sats already with tipping?
In fact, I just spent one sat to post this comment.
