And yet, we're doing very little to "stop using their currency".
Bitcoiners as a group, on average, use fiat 99.9% more often than Bitcoin.
And don't give me that Gresham's Law and paying taxes bullshit..... It's purely laziness and a preference toward convenience.
2025, and even Bitcoin conferences are still posting their ticket prices in fiat. It's shameful AF.

I think Bitcoiners use the fiat cash much more than they use any kind of plastic.
That is at least a small step to privacy. Cash, even fiat, leaves no trails.

Stop whining and be the change you want to see. Look at the man in the mirror.
And which humans don't have a preference for convenience? Show me.

I'm doing exactly this. But it is 100x more difficult to do alone. If the entire community were trying also, the network affect would start making a difference.... the way it did in Bitcoin Beach. We need to be the change, collectively.

Look at every revolution in human history. The American Revolutionary War is one of my favorite examples:
From Benjamin Franklin's autobiography:
"The colonies would gladly have borne the little tax on tea and other matters, had it not been that England took away from the colonies their money, which created unemployment and dissatisfaction. The inability of the colonies to get power to issue their own money permanently out of the hands of George III the international bankers was the prime reason for the revolutionary war."
Bitcoiners have reason to revolt. And they're choosing convenience.
I'm ready to revolt.... but if I'm all alone in this, all I'm really going to be doing it making my life more difficult for no reason. I need others to join.
