It would be a shame if you happen to store the azw3, and with your keys removed the DRM (which is very much in your rights) and created epubs...
I think you have to incentivize it in the beginning. I'm not exactly familiar with your services/offering, but e.g.
- Get all your friends set up with wallets (e.g. Phoenix) and then help them pay you for your service there.
- You could do some competition on twitter, like for every 10th person that pays with bitcoin you will give them 100% discount for the next item in the same price range, or something like that (so this is literally just 10% discount that incentivizes next buy).
I think it's quite remarkable that you can install this browser OS as Chrome App, then in it you can run linux and then in this OS open a Chrome like browser and in it run Windows and in this Windows play a 3D game written in Unity.
Commander Keen is my favorite :) I'm the type of weirdo that plays the CK4 mods like https://pckf.com/viewtopic.php?t=13985
I'm not saying it's a bad measure - it's standardized and provides some insight.
The issue is that big majority will see this and think "lightning is so bad if my $100 payment fails one out of three tries."
A lot of people were just repeating the "keep the hardest money" as if that's given and that's the only truth. To get to these people I wrote this point in a very naive and simplified way with hope that at least one person will catch the idea and later think about the problem more thoroughly. On purpose I did not include situations where you actually want to keep bitcoin and spend fiat (without using exchanges).
In my opinion if rich people and bankers are the only one using bitcoin to keep and expand their riches and the majority of the world is not going to actually use bitcoin as peer to peer cash, then that's a sad end of bitcoin.
In the article I highlighted how there is not much missing from making bitcoin truly useful for farmers, old people, etc. The biggest blocker and a gap is that people are not paying with bitcoin (again, sellers are already accepting...). Some of them may have valid reasons, like you do, but some of them don't in my estimate.
So thank you for wasting your time with my conversation and if you would be willing to waste some more, I would be interested in your POV of when you don't want to spend bitcoin.
fwiw "being hit by a wet trout" is an old meme.
That graph makes lightning look much less reliable than it is. If you simulate random payments from any node to any node that's by far not matching the reality. There are many nodes that are just sitting there and are not actually source/target of any payments - and these are often the unreliable ones, etc.
"Keep the hardest asset and spend the softest" is economically irrational in the world of bitcoin where you can easily exchange fiat for bitcoin in seconds to minutes (and minutes to hours without KYC). If exchanges would not exist, then you are correct - "keep the hardest asset", but in the world with exchanges that just doesn't make economical sense.
Just buy however much bitcoin is your target to have. You can buy it right now, in the next minute, you don't need to wait until you spend all your soft assets.
Really think through this - you are not talking about your house or gold in vault. These assets are very illiquid. Bitcoin is extremely liquid.
You are saying "I want to have as much as bitcoin as possible, e.g. 1 BTC by the end of year and I'm going to get it by spending $100k fiat on my usual expenditures". Why would you do that to yourself? :) You can literally just buy the 1 BTC right now and then still pay your expenditures the same way. You can have your target today.
Again, everyone is free to do whatever they want with their bitcoin, the same as I'm free to highlight the illogical approach they take :)
