I've been pretty much pedal to the floor since I started, although I'm not quite at a full year yet. I'm wondering if over time people have fluctuated with how much of their extra fiat they put into Bitcoin.
I’m always looking for new margins on which to stack.
I’m thinking about getting into online teaching as an easy second job that can go almost entirely into the stack.

I've considered starting personal training out of my home gym for bitcoin money. I could charge enough to make it worth it.

I'd come by, for sure

It would be free to you.

Nah, I zap my tips. You can't stop me!

In a zap warz the rewards pool is the only winner.
And what's your recommended platform for that?
reply
I'm just looking at available adjunct appointments, right now. It's only a little extra money, but it's also a portable side gig, so it confers a bit more independence.
reply
Portability is great.

As the stack increases in size, so doth the force and urgency at which one stacks:
StackForce ∝ StackSize × Urgency²
{ where StackForce is the unstoppable compulsion to stack more, StackSize is the current height of the stack. Urgency is a mysterious internal variable only the individual can feel.}

You automatically slow down because you will run out of fiat at some time.
reply
Pedal to the floor only works so long. You have to pace yourself because stacking is a long term plan.

I currently put about 65% of my paycheck into Bitcoin every two weeks since the start of the new year. Last year, I was only doing about 25% of my paycheck.
reply
Yes, maybe aside from the depths of the last bear market, every year I convert more fiat into bitcoin than the year before.
reply
I slowed down once I hit my target. Now, I stack few times a year. I also started investing in index funds and gold since they are not coupled to Bitcoin price.
Also, I try to earn sats by contributing to open source projects like SN

Yeah, I was embarrassingly low when I started.
reply
Isn't this just natural bitcoiner progression?
reply
it slowed down dramatically since the exchange rate changed
I assume it is like this for lots of people
reply
I've slowed down since my first big burst of buying bitcoin. Now I buy sporadically, but tend to increase my rate of purchase during price dips.
reply
Since I did the mental configuration. To what I consider as 100%
I state with everything in Bitcoin and so I plan to maintain.
I apply to the extent that I can, more sometimes and less sometimes, but I try not to stop.

I started not long ago and I’ve already cut out some of the methods I found for earning a few sats. From mobile shitcoins to endless faucets — none of that is worth my time, and I realized I can redirect my efforts toward more productive things.
My stacking method is still pretty amateur. I’ve got a few games linked to wallets that earn a little in my free time, I use Stacker News where I spend time reading and staying updated, and now and then I do a survey or something like that.
Most of it comes from my salary, which I’ve been converting into Bitcoin. I started with a little over 3% and I’m increasing it month by month as I pay off my debts — some credit debt that I’m seriously thinking about not paying at all, and instead converting that into Bitcoin and maybe settling it in the future.
reply
Good to do both, stacking and paying away some debt. Will feel good, once dept gone.
reply
Yes, but I still think I'm losing out by paying off the credits instead of buying bitcoin. After all, credit is due to the need for money to purchase consumer goods that have suffered from the inflation of shitfiat.
