Hi stackers, as bitcoiners we should start to take responsibility and be aware that without us, adoption (I don't care if massive, medium, small or insignificant, but bitcoin adoption) is impossible. Yes, by adoption I mean going out for a couple of beers with your girlfriend without going through an atm, watching your soccer team at the stadium, buying a house in the countryside or going to your neighborhood grocery store to buy milk and cereal, whatever the activity, those of us who are not willing to jump through the banks' hoops so easily, we continue to stand next to them, like a toxic relationship from which you have no escape.
Over the years you surround yourself with a lot of friends who want my beloved sats, and out of necessity and much to my regret, I sell them to them to get a little money in the local shitcoin currency, simply to be able to survive in this concrete jungle.
Adopting bitcoin in a local business requires nothing more than a lightning wallet, and voila! Throughout these years I can already consume products and services in more than a dozen establishments, I have simply established a cordial relationship with the owners, which in the end have ended up understanding my need as a user, realizing that in my situation there are many more people, they are entrepreneurs, if they know that the difference between consuming and not consuming.
After this, I don't know if it would be a good idea (and feasible) to set up a node so that these establishments can move to the next level, and if I can avoid losing many sats along the way, all the better (if some sats are gained, hey, maybe we will create a profitable venture doing what we like). For the moment, I keep on studying, learning and dreaming. Is what I am saying very crazy or do you see any possibility in this tangle of thoughts?
Of course, I think the basis for all this to work should be to create small bitcoin communities around each of the establishments, such as workshops, lectures, meetings and seminars in the adhered businesses, there are many establishments and many bitcoiners in my city, and I'm afraid in all, so it could be replicable by anyone. I appreciate anything that brings light to this idea, I really have long been with the fly behind the ear thinking of setting up something similar when I see myself really able to cover something like this.
Thanks for reading sat, your comments are welcome
