After seeing the announcement in January that Heritage Distillery (https://heritagedistilling.com/) was adopting #BTC standard for their Treasury, I added them to my list of preferred (BTC-adjacent) vendors. However I noticed they didn't accept it as a form of payment.
Yesterday I used their online form to ask when they plan to accept as a form of payment. The CEO responded to me within an hour or two. He was very curious about my thoughts on BTC, why/when I would use/HODL, and if my friends did the same. Was a very productive conversation.
Below is a screenshot of the end of the conversation. They are on the path to implementing it.
I even pointed him to one of Parker Lewis's articles and recommended Zaprite (@ODELL @Marty Bent let him know)
It turns out you can can just do/say/ask things.
Bitcoin adjacent products are mainly there for institutions that can't hold Bitcoin directly or for tax "advantaged" 401ks/IRAs held by us wage-slaves. When I'm getting %6 match from my employer you better believe I'm putting all that towards Bitcoin ETFs or MSTR. So long as the fiat gains track with Bitcoin AND the system doesn't blow up, there's a good path to one day cash that out and convert into Bitcoin, then live off it by using BTC-backed loan products, inflating away the fiat debt so long as BTC CAGR outpaces the interest. Of course, all other take-home pay goes directly into BTC. These products have their niche, and I think that's what Saylor and Mallers are tapping into

So many people comfortablely living in Western societies desperately want to be the oppressed underdog who will eventually overthrow the Bad Guys. They want to participate in some Big Thing. So much LARPing.
Today I tried my hand at baking bread. Used beef tallow in place of olive oil. Turned out pretty tasty.

Unfortunately, I'm in one of the few states Salt Lending doesn't service yet (Alabama), but I am able to use LEDN. They have higher rates, but it's still a very cool unlock to live off Bitcoin without selling, assuming BTC CAGR is consistently higher than the rate. Just roll over the loan after 12 months and reclaim some of the BTC. Very nice
