80 sats \ 2 replies \ @kepford 18 Jan \ on: How do you explain zapping to non-bitcoiners? bitcoin
I explain how infeasible it is to get small tips online. It just doesn't work for plebs. Then I explain how when someone likes what I write they can send me a bit of bitcoin(sat). Then I tell them his much I have been given in the last 6 months. I tell them, imagine if artists adopted this. What if people could directly give value for value with no gatekeepers or middle men. Usually their interest is peaked.
This is often how I talk about bitcoin. Its true value as a censorship resistant money. An inflation proof form of money. A permission less network without borders.
This is much more interesting than look at the price.

Emphasis on no middle men is good. I often forget to bring that up.
Middle money instead of middle men.
(I might need to workshop that one a bit)
