I started 2024 with the aim to move more of my time into Bitcoin. As an optometrist and practice owner of over 17 years @Alan Bryden I had already integrated bitcoin payments into my small business and onto the company balance sheet. I spoke at my first Bitcoin conference in Dublin and co-founded a Bitcoin education company @npub1y9mw...8wx2. Linked up with some awesome individuals @nosfabrica & excited to develop more within the decentralised healthcare space. More of this transition in 2025 - out of the Fait system & into #bitcoin in moving my business structure & income generation online, built on Bitcoin ⚡️🫡

Welcome to 🤡 world, where… UK government considering 39% Capital Gains Tax on assets you took risks on using your cash that has already been taxed 32-47%. What a great idea 👏👏 🤨

Bitcoin remains a societal blind spot, as its complexities and positive impacts are not fully recognized or understood by the broader public, business sectors or governments. This will not always be the case & the the shift in awareness may come sooner than we expect. #studybitcoin

My wife just sent me a voice note talking about putting money aside each month - but after looking at bank “saving accounts” she has decided she wants me to show her how to set up with a Bitcoin wallet for some DCA action. Finally !!!! …after 5 years - she has seen the light 💡😃⚡️

I've been accepting #bitcoin in my #opticians practice since November 2021. Haven't really marketed it to my existing patient base, however I am now launching my own eyewear range HODL Eyewear and will be talking about Bitcoin a lot more....interesting to see the impact / feedback from them. image

It's crazy to think that over 800 million people struggle with every day activities due to visual impairment and cannot access a simple pair of glasses to fix their sight. The vast majority are unbanked, live in the global south and their poor vision creates a major barrier to living their fullest life. It is our hope that #bitcoin can fix this. #satsforsight Local initiative with Global Impact. image
