I have supported my Maxisclub's merch store, on #Nostr , through
@PlebeianMarket
  and I only accept Bitcoin, no fiat.
I have my Maxis Club animation project supported by 
@geyserfund
 , other Bitcoiners support me and receive rewards with their donations with only #Bitcoin  on my project and it is also supported on Nostr. I never accept fiat, I do not use centralized services and show the way to others. This decision affects my income by having less avenues, as using Bitcoin circular economy and using Nostr is in the minority. I am not making this post to ask for support, I have incredible support from the bitcoiner community, the truth is that I am very happy. I just come to say, this is what it feels like when you are in the “early” phase of a new system, everything has more difficulty, everything requires more effort. I only come to express this reflection, because when this decentralized Bitcoin system grows and is implemented in a majority way, I want you to remember these words, and if everything goes good for me, nobody will come to tell me that “I have been lucky”. It's not luck, it's a proof of work.
