> Because it always

this above is clearly "golden rule" (and especially golden in crypto)

Because it always goes down before a halving because miners do a big sell off.

This is an enthusiast mindset, not a normie one. That is what I explained above.

newbies well know that they may sell it immediately (and many of them usually do this in fact ;)

They would sell for a loss because Bitcoin is more volatile than USD on the short term. So you required additional labor of them (the process of selling) and your tip is now less than it was when you gave it to them.

that's why I highlighted here I would direct them to use Google Play / App Store as a legitimate source of applications

Fair enough. If the restaurant is not busy they may have time to download an app. They may still have a rule where they aren’t supposed to have their phones out on the floor.

so, the base of your "issues" is weak in fact... thus, annoying, tbh ;)

The constant winks are a cope. You’re out of touch.
