Oddbean new post about login | logout I'm not sure going btc only is the way to reach wide enough audience though. I won't drive in people who don't have it yet. And those who are orange pilled don't need further pilling.🤔
I’ve tried being the only BTC person in a market. Ended up taking zero BTC payments, but did show one Gen a guy @wavlake and that was cool. I think it’s good to show merchants that BTC is an option though. Like helloooooo there *is* an alternative to all the venmo and PayPal and Zelle bullshit. But people love that bullshit and don’t realize why it’s bullshit. So I think we have to offer incentives if we take payments in BTC. Like a % discount.
It's still not about a special thing happening, that's the general pro btc approach. I teach paid in btc too, ask in cafés, mention it on concerts and such. My local 21 group has monthly parties, pizza day and so on, where merchants are paid in btc. For the rest there are things like BTC Prague, I thought that's where the general thought goes.
I like asking if people can take BTC. I’ve asked my doctor, Starbucks, whatever. Just to see how people react
Yup. Especially if I have my little kids around. Being just some momma asking adds some special not-nerd flavor.
Yeah it does. That pretty savvy of you ⭐️
