Most of the Civil servants are poor or middle class, that's why they need an extra income.
So, if someone speed up a paperwork in local admin because he is you friend and this means that others have to wait a little bit longer because they don't have a friend inside is ok?
I don't have any questions to you, just writing here (despite of the Pay to Post system) to say that you came up with a very cool job, Kudos to you 👍.
Traveling, Bitcoin Conferences and talking to Bitcoiners.
Ok, an idea just came to my mind. What part of your job do you like the less?
Have you thought 💭 about mining ⛏️ solo?
The odds are against you, but the reward is big.
All you need to find is just one hash.
🤞
Bitcoin is a great tool to help you avoid this kind of decisions.
I've been trying to buy a new pc, but selling SATs it's getting harder and harder.
I still remember that day.
My brother was traveling during that week and going to the airport was a huge problem.
Maybe an online event is a first step.
Once you build a small community, you could start doing a face to face event, no cameras allowed.
No, I'm not out of my mind.
If you sell, the KYC problem is over.
I know, there are tax implications.
If the IRS or Government knows you bought some SATs and you have never sell it, maybe in a short future, they will ask about your SATs.
You can always sell all in a CEX and then buy back on a P2P market (lnp2pbot, Robosats, Hodlhodl, etc).
So, no Government will know that you now have BTC.
Very interesting post.
Just wandering, if in these case the business will have some savings in Fiat for the short term payments they need to do or are they in 100% BTC?
How much of their savings are now in BTC?
THANKS!
This afternoon I helped my 15 year old nephew to use the lnp2pbot to get some SATS for his first time.
He create the offer on the bot, I took the offer, I send or block the SATs on the bot, he sent the invoice to the bot and we arrange the payment in private chat, in this case he got the SATs for free. Then, I pressed the release command.
Now, he has a very important skill. He knows how to buy NO KYC Bitcoin, he live in Australia, the bot is not very popular over there yet, so if you see a offer to buy BTC for a small amount, that's probably my nephew.
Having financial freedom it's having options to decide how do you want to spend your time.
If you enjoy your job, you could work few hours per week, but if you are one of the many workers who doesn't like their job and you have wealth, why spend your time doing something you don't like.
Some people would focus on their families, others would focus on learning a new hobby or practicing sports.
Now days, I have more free time so I'm enjoying playing tennis 3 times per week, learning a new language, reading and having great family time.
Remember, you choose whatever you want to do. If you get bored, just change to a new activity.
There are less women in finances too. Unfortunately they get places later.
The Bitcoin communities, mainly formed by men aren't exactly welcoming to women.
Plus they are on charge of kids and elder in many cases, and that means less time to learn or worry about anything else.
I've convinced 5 or 6 family members to buy some SATs but I don't think they have study or understood what BTC is about.
The only part they know about it, is as investment asset. But Bitcoin is way more than that
Could you explain the business model?, is the app free to use?, what data from the users do you collect and what do you do with it?
Thanks
You're going fast!!! Good on you.
Been on Stacker News in only 6 months is a great achievement.
For me, the biggest change has been related to time preference and it become very hard to spend some SATs. I want to hodl for longer.
Enjoy the ride!
This book for kids is a very way to introduce some of the points you are planning to talk about it.
I'll ask the students to read it and discuss it in the classroom.
