This is actually pretty common around the EU - we're personally aware of dozens of people who are doing the same (zero-fiat). One guy in our team hasn't used a bank since 2023.
There are a few things you need to focus on:
- Orange Pill your local merchants (eg the island of Alderney, they added 6 merchants in the last few weeks)
- Move! To a Bitcoin friendly place (eg Madeira). Check https://btcmap.org
- Join local meetups for p2p trades. You pay KYC-free bitcoin, they pay your rent / bills / give you cash / whatever.
- Use https://shopinbit.com for general "stuff"
- Use the shopinbit concierge for other stuff
- Get paid in Bitcoin (we're hiring - https://bitcoinerjobs.com/job/1640030-full-stack-developer-nostr-dev-team )
- Robosats as a lifeline
Try and get out of the habit of "whipping out" your bank card or mobile pay / whatever. If you really can't use Bitcoin, always pay with cash. And never purchase anything without first asking "can I pay with Bitcoin?"
Thanks for the valuable info, didn’t know this.
