75 sats \ 2 replies \ @cryotosensei 20 May \ on: Leaving My SN Bubble: Bitcoin Meetup At The Melville Deli bitcoin
Feels so good to zap you 500 sats. I have so many questions though, pls bear with me:
  • what’s the purpose of the wampum bracelet?
  • As a teacher, I’m interested in the analogy of the deli sandwich. I mean, we use the sandwich in English teaching to teach paragraph development or give someone constructive criticism in between positive feedback. How is the sandwich related to POW?
  • what do these ex-miners think about the future of mining?
  • how come you never shared about your use of The Bitcoin Company?
  • are these Bitcoiners traders or investors? (Not that it’s wrong to sell Bitcoin at the top, in my opinion)
You don’t have to answer all questions, if at all! I just wanted to let you know how engaging your article was ;)

Thanks for the sats! I hope Simon jumps in about most of your questions. He can explain it better. But, I DID talk about The Bitcoin Company at the meetup. I explained that by buying my Dunkin Donuts morning coffee with a bitcoin gift card over the past year and a half my coffee got cheaper, while everyone else's got more expensive.

You know, I've usually used bitcoin to buy grocery gift cards at TBC/Bitrefill that I spend quickly, so there's likely not a huge savings. But I may switch to using it for my Starbucks or a streaming service, where I'd be spending over time and making them cheaper.
