finally got a pretty major local rancher to become obsessed with #Bitcoin over the course of the last year.
whole staff now has btc denominated benefits. all the store locations and online shop will start accepting Bitcoin and putting it in cold storage as the company war chest. Can’t wait to release this announcement y’all are going to love their meat.
how did I do it? I shook their hands when shopping there, asked about their lives and over time invited each of them to grab lunch, or come to jiu jitsu, or go shooting now and then, and casually asked to pay in Bitcoin every week until they started inviting me to lunch specifically to learn about it. Not too pushy, no strings attached.
This is not a venture for me. It’s just love of community and trying being of service locally. Bottom up adoption.

korean regulators have told brokerages to cease support for US #Bitcoin spot etfs to prevent capital outflows.
post hong kong spot etf approval (only 2 approved exchanges under the new reg atm, not sure there will be enough liquidity for Q2 ✅, maybe Dec?)
…will korea be next?
people have been saying I should care about liquid for years…
I don’t. Not sure I know anyone who uses it. Theoretically there are many cool things you could do with it, but the market hasn’t shown much interest at all. 🤷♂️
maybe 24/7 accessible stocks will catch on there? we’ll see.
#Bitcoin is bottom up, money by choice.
I believe top-down government mandates to accept #Bitcoin will fizzle out in comparison.
Look to El Salvador, vs what has been built by communities in Costa Rica.
In the end it will be ubiquitous.
