44 sats \ 3 replies \ @022fbc9cef 12 Aug \ on: Update On My Fellow Retirees bitcoin
I often suggest paying in Bitcoin to handymen that come to do a job. Recently, a guy told me he is not interested since his friend was scammed out of a cottage (not sure how) by some crypto fraud. Just because of that, he thought Bitcoin is a scam. It is sad.
We buy eggs from an older couple in our neighborhood who have chickens. I kept offering to pay them in bitcoin. They looked at me as if I'm trying to scam them. I stopped trying.

Funny, I actually buy eggs from a local bitcoiner for sats. He's got chickens and is happy to part with the eggs for a few hundred sats.

Their 40 something son has moved back home with them. I might try him directly. It makes so much sense from their standpoint.
