I'm approaching an "event horizon" of my own.
I will admit that I still look at the dollar value of 1000 sats more than once per day, but I'm no longer thinking "ooh that's $1.18 USD". Now I look at the number simply in relation to the number that I saw the last time I looked.
I know: "number go up".
I have been steadily raising my "zap for fun" from 1 to 21 to 42 (milestone: when incoming zaps reached 21x21 441 sats, just to make sure I'm not just being a chump) and then to 84 when incomong sats doubled to 882..
The "event horizon" is that now I look at prices offered in BTC and think "is that worth X amount of standard zaps"? I like zapping folks for nostr posts that either amuse me or make me think and now I think "is this item for sale worth X amount of those posts?"
My wish is that items that I actually value: food, clothing, shelter, would price in BTC and then I would truly leave the USD world forever.
