Haha, I knew this was coming
To became a bitcoiner first you need to get out of your head the fiat currency.
I get your point but unfortunately, my salary, rent and food is still denominated in EUR so I would say EUR still affects me.
We are already in Sat Standard.
You pay everything in sats? Everything is denominated in sats for you, and the amount does not change depending on the current exchange rate of BTC/USD (for example)?

You pay everything in sats?
Yes, I live on BTC Standard for years. Is just a matter of changing mentality, your mentality and most of the people around you. Then create the circular economy. Is not about in which currency are denominated your expenses, is about with what form of money you are paying those expenses. Saying that "my expenses are denominated in fiat, so I cannot use my BTC" is really dumb. BE THE FUCKING CHANGE IF YOU REALLY WANT THE WORLD TO CHANGE.

I read it now. Very interesting story. This reminded me that I may know a similar store owner I can orange pill since we know each for some time now.
But for some reason, I haven't thought of telling him about bitcoin until I read your story. I only asked another store owner how much fees they pay due to card payments with asking about bitcoin in the back of my mind. (~80€ card payment fees per month)
I thought about asking someone if they heard about bitcoin but I was scared of sounding like a scammer, lol. But that store owner will probably be interested in listening.
So thanks for inspiration!

I can use my BTC but why would I when I am trying to stack my sats. We're still early. I don't have to be the messiah, the fiat system is already making itself irrelevant over time.
I think it's not honest to say "BTC standard" when everything obviously is not denominated in BTC yet.
Is not about in which currency are denominated your expenses, is about with what form of money you are paying those expenses.
Well, if it's a circular economy, it should be denominated in BTC. No?
I'll read your post when I have more time. Not sure if I already read it
