Normalise bitcoin payments. When invoicing a client send them bank details and also a bitcoin address they can pay you at. Doesn't matter if you've never talked to them about bitcoin. Make it a part of your work and life. Normalise it.

Should you invest in that altcoin? I'm a bitcoin maxi, but let's forget about that for a moment. From a computer science point of view, let's say you invest in an altcoin because of its speed, anonymity, programmability or whatever. Fine. Ask yourself this: Are people

Eth is yet again hilarious. I decided to get the SOS airdrop, paid 14 dollars in fees. Got 30 dollars of shitcoins, 5 million tokens. Okay, I'll just trade them for bitcoin, no big deal, right? The swap needs 100 dollars in fees. 🤦‍♂️ What an ultra-sound joke.

Let's change the message, from "buy bitcoin," to "study bitcoin". Like they did when they displayed it on that central bank. I think it's better. Buy is just a command, people dismiss it as yet another scam. But if you ask them to study it, it's a movement.
