I suppose this may vary depending on where each person lives.

When it's your turn to use or spend your Bitcoin.

How do you do it?

Can you always pay directly in SATS, or do you have to convert to Fiat in one way or another to make your payment?

We know that not spending Bitcoin is important, we know that paying directly with Bitcoin is important. But sometimes you have to use Bitcoin (spend), and sometimes if you can't pay directly with real money 🍊⚡, you have to convert and pay with fiat money 💲💩

I'm very intrigued to know how the big stackers in this community do it.

If you'd like, leave your opinion or comment on what you think about it.

Tell me... How do you use (spend) your SATS?

Direct payment with **SATS** 🍊⚡62.5%

Payment with **Merdinha** (Fiat) 🍊💱💩37.5%

I'm not sure I understand the question. When I spend bitcoin I spend it directly. When I spend dollars I spend dollars directly.

Is this mainly a question who are 100% bitcoin and don't hold any fiat at all?

Exactly, I mean those who do not keep anything from Fiat, eventually out of normal expenses arise, or seek to supply some urgency.

I suppose, that at that time you make use of your stored money, understand your bitcoin for money.

So, I ask when you have to use it to pay something.

Do you always pay direct in Bitcoin or change and then pay? Either in USD, USDT, XMR, Marine Conchas, Bolivars or any other primitive money.

Yes, this is the correct way, avoid as much as you can to "sell sats for fiat" in order to be spent. When you do that, you create a demand of fiat on the market, that means you make it stronger. And we should do as much as we can to make it weak and obsolete.

If the merchant doesn't accept BTC directly then:

avoid that merchant, boycott them and go to another one that accept
convince the merchant, be persistent in your demands
in case that you do not have fiat, use a friend: give the sats to your friend that want BTC and he will pay with his extra cash your bills. This is NOT "selling sats" but instead helping a friend to enter in a circular economy.

Thank you and I understand perfectly what you mention, only that sometimes is "easier to say than to do it."

Bitcoin is still a baby 🚼 and that is why it is difficult to pay on Sats or make a P2P with someone known, personally all people and close relatives are very lobotomized, they do not listen to anything about Bitcoin and less have or want Bitcoin.

And I live in Peru, here everything is behind at least 10 years with respect to what you have in Europe (in this case talking about adoption, but in general it is the same) what makes it even more difficult, use the Sats properly without going to shit coins. or without falling into the hands of the Chinese of Binance.

without falling into the hands of the Chinese of Binance.

hahahahaha I like that LOL "chinese of binance"! Is that so deep inside binance?

0 sats \ 0 replies \ @flat24 OP 23 Mar

I do not usually use binance to sell bitcoin, but I don't know how to deny that the fucking Chinese makes it very easy for it to be done from there.

I'm at the beginning of the rabbit hole. So far, I've only stacked my Sats⚡ I don't spend. I imagine that as I gain maturity in knowledge, I'll advance in its use.

That's great ... excellent that you just allow yourself to save for now. But remember that to really live in the Bitcoin pattern, we must measure our existence in Sats, then pass expenses, goals, and everything to Sats.

which inventably leads us to the use of Bitcoin. (And that's how it should be) you have to use it to remain in circulation.

And remember: "All with measure"

You spend everytime you zap sats.

I've bought miners books and other things with Bitcoin.

You spend everytime you zap sats.

You are right, but I was referring to expenses of everyday life or when doing some capricacy or emergency expense. (That type of expense)

I've bought miners books and other things with Bitcoin.

This is fantastic.

🤔 I think only the VPN is paid directly on Sats.
