 My long term savings is #bitcoin. I still believing in owning equity in public traded companies and agree with on investing in companies that I believe in or that interest me. Personally, I don’t think there’s anything wrong with a bit of diversification. 

I learned that toxic maximalism is a thing and I do what my circumstances allow. 
 I’d consider myself a toxic Bitcoin maxi honestly. But in the context of Bitcoin as money only. There are a lot of things in life that I value and see as a worthy investment of my personal time, energy and proof of work 

Will I not invest in rock climbing equipment because it will depreciate against my bitcoin? Of course not. 

I’d love to have the option to invest sats instead of fiat though. That’s an idea 
 I get what you’re saying now, and it would be a great option. There may already be smaller startups doing but it isn’t something I’ve explored personally. I believe the more businesses learn about bitcoin (especially mom and pop shops) the more they’ll realize what a great asset it would be for them to accept. 

Investing with bitcoin would be a game changer. I’d definitely be willing to invest some of mine into shops I believe in. 

This is something I’ve never considered. Thanks for this! 
 Investment makes the gears of industry grind forward! In a hyper bitcoinized world, I’m curious how that would look! Exciting things to come
