Interesting! I subscribe to a spend and replace philosophy. Helps move more bitcoin through the circular economy and makes sure my stack doesn't shrink. I use it regularly for things like vpn service and esim.
Not recommending it necessarily, but you can also use a product like Strike where you can put fiat in and send it for lightning payments. That way you feel like you're not spending bitcoin.
Its decades since I relied on the fiat mines, and I spent 5-6 years setting up a couple of my own, but had to walk away from all of that in 2020.
No way I'll rely on fiat rails for income ever again, I've had close to no fiat incoming since at least 2021!
Guess I'm all in ;-)

Haha congrats my friend!
I guess ultimately you still must pay for things like your cell phone service or vpn (if you use one) etc... My point is that using fiat directly for that service or spending btc and replacing it with the fiat you would have used is basically the same thing (in terms of your btc balance).
But it is another step and some extra work that may not be worthwhile to you, so completely understand!

Still living on gold that I've sold after melting my cards in ATMs in 2020 ;-)
In other words gold protected my Bitcoin that I got at the same time, hopefully that makes a few toxic maxi's heads explode haha
Now its all about earning in Bitcoin, that is why I'm here!
