Not so sure if you still use a VISA (fiat card)...
The bitcoin standard is when you do not use anymore fiat...
"The bitcoin standard is when you do not use anymore fiat..."
That's not true, its when you don't use fiat for your standard anymore. I do not measure my wealth in fiat, I do not think in fiat gains. The dollar is simply the payment network with the widest reach. A bitcoin standard is when you simply stop having fiat as the default and its no longer how you weigh the value of anything in your financial or personal life, imo.

Also specifically in response to the "whether you use visa," yes i have normal banking and a visa card. I simply cycle it every month into/out of btc. Nothing in fiat stays in fiat unless its needed where i can't use bitcoin within the period of this month.

I kind of understand you, you live in US, a full fiat world. A world that will be the last one in the whole world that will be fully using Bitcoin.
But you still have a long way to reach that "Bitcoin Standard" that you are trying to preach. fiat world is still in your mind and around you.

After just visiting Australia I must say I think US will adopt before AU will. From my experience talking to the locals they are far more into the fiat clouds than US.
