100 sats \ 1 reply \ @028559d218 OP 8 Sep \ parent \ on: Knots doesn't make any sense to me bitcoin
Imagine if EVERY Bitcoiner in the USA did a 21-day Bitcoin ONLY challenge. It would change everything. It would have a huge impact on the economy for those 21 days, and merchants would adapt quick. Politicians would have to change their approach to things like capital-gains taxes on Bitcoin or they'd be voted out in no time.
I agree 100%. Talk is cheap. Where are the people spending??? I understand that this process won't be overnight... but frankly all the "monetary-maxi" people talk about is.... talk.
They don't act. Monetary maxi people on social media talk a great game about "bitcoin the money" etc but are they spending? My experience suggests very few of them.

Yup.
I know, there is more friction right now to spend Bitcoin than fiat.
But damn.... the USA had to fight for its independence from England because of "taxation without representation" (i.e. FIAT MONEY). They coordinated and died for it. And most of the population of the colonies were against independence. A small 10-20% were enough to make the change happen without the help of the majority.
Bitcoiners today are even greater in number.... but seem to be un-willing to fight a similar war. To me, it's shameful.
