 my wife and I were just going over what we pay with bitcoin here in Madeira

it's more than we realized:

* rent
* nanny
* cleaner
* most restaurants we go to
* daughter's daycare
* my office
* pharmacy
* dentists
* physical therapist
* my wife's nails and hair salon
* obviously tons of coffees

it's kinda wild, we've realized the only thing we don't pay with bitcoin that we use in a regular basis is the supermarket

to be clear, this is not "I pay with bitcoin and the person receives fiat, they don't even know they're using bitcoin!" -- nonono, this is straight up pay into someone's wallet

pretty damn fucking cool 
 For supermarkets there's Bitrefill. Excellent work though. 
 this is amazing and fantastic. just had a taste of this in El Salvador. Everything is possible 
 Wow that’s absolutely fantastic! 
 And here I live in a first world country and can't even pay with card at most takeaway shops, because of money laundering... 
 How expensive is it to live there? Looks amazing 
 about the same as living in any mid-sized american city; not cheap, not super super expensive. 
 Interesting. Do you like living there? Would you recommend it? 
 Very cool! 
 #circulareconomy pay with Sats!  
 Ah yeah, of course, I forgot to mention, we also pay for our bread with bitcoin, baked by our neighbor.

(and I gotta say, her's is probably the best bread I've ever had 👇)

 so you are not a carnivore  
 lol no 
 Next level 🤩👏 
 Keep it going!! 💪 Maybe the "continentals" will someday get it and demand it for themselves ✌️ 
 Do you pay a fixed amount of BTC for those services/products? If so then you’re paying a lot more than you were recently. Unless your income is also in BTC…? 
 impressive! 
 Soooo jealous! 
 That's so sick!

The dream 
 What about Madeira Climbing Center? Btw couldn’t zap you for some reason.
