> then you buy $700 worth of Bitcoin, $200 go to your store of value hardware wallet and $500 is to spend over the next month through lightning.

The bitcoin wallet of the future will make this as simple as a Savings and a Checking account.

Here is the thing. Bitcoin is at the same time store of value and for small payments let's say up to $200 through lightning.

To put an example, during a month you will pay for coffee, a hamburger, a bottle of wine, you will do micropayments on the internet to listen to podcast or to proof you are a human been, or to tip creators.

Let's say that during the month you spent a total of $500 in Bitcoin. That's good, then you buy $700 worth of Bitcoin, $200 go to your store of value hardware wallet and $500 is to spend over the next month through lightning.

We need to live and if a some point you need to buy a car, you will need to spend your Bitcoin, just don't buy a car or go on a expensive vacation during the bear market!!!

Will you ever sell your bitcoin or just use it?
