 my son sold some of this #Bitcoin today to buy his mom a Mother’s Day gift from the drugstore

he sent some sats from his Strike account over to his Cash App account,  sold them, and then used his Apple Pay to buy his mom these face masks 

I’ve got to admit, when he hold me
that he came up with this process to spin up some cash I was impressed… but also impressed with his generosity https://image.nostr.build/81d9f85b5de0f2c215f38f1f390147e5821e00e3afc49713074f4acc8a4d4141.jpg

 The real lesson is when he finds out how he paid for those 5-10 years from now

I often feel the hodl culture lose the point that if its not used as a currency, adoption and hence intrinsic value (that above its coin worth) is lost.
You can both stack and use.
Hats off to the hacker spirit in your son you have evidently fostered.
