Our Bitcoin strategy is simple: Keep expenses lower than our revenue, save the excess in sats Accept sats as a method of payment Use a non custodial Lightning wallet as our chequing account Use a hardware wallet as our savings account to store 2 months worth of farm expenses in sats Secure our farm treasury using a multisig vault with geographically distributed keys and a protocol that requires 3 days and multiple parties to broadcast a spend transaction Borrow fiat by using a small portion of our treasury as collateral — When it comes to collateralized loans, we have high lender standards and strict due diligence practices We only work with lenders who: Do not rehypothecate funds Offer transparent on chain UTXO monitoring Offer loan rollover and flexible repayment Deposit fiat via wire transfer directly to our bank account Offer insurance on bitcoin deposits — 21st century farming on a #bitcoin standard leverages the power of pristine digital collateral We are long bitcoin and short fiat We don’t trade bitcoin We are responsible with our lending and don’t borrow more than we need We aim to never sell our sats #nostr #bitcoin #farm #farmer #health #shortfiat #food #soil #health https://m.primal.net/LCqh.jpg
This is the clarity and simplicity we need around Bitcoin. Excellent post. Hope it makes the rounds in farming circles.
Sounds like a good future ahead for Cairibou Farms!

first page of satoshis white paper says digital cash. how do you fund "digital gold" if you never use it and don't support the miners
We use it regularly as a form of digital cash by accepting it as a medium of exchange and regularly consolidating UTXOs onchain which pays fees to miners. Bitcoin is far more than digital gold. It’s programmable, perfect money. That makes it the ultimate store of value. Everyone will use the tool in their own way based on their needs. We use it for all 3 functions of money - store of value, medium of exchange and unit of account
