been living on sats for a little bit now. it's incredible. bitcoin is the best expression of fiat debasement. why doesnt everyone do this? if we build a good enough experience to enable living on bitcoin, can we spark a Boston Tea Party type movement?

If the friction can be removed, more people will adopt it.

I am positive that most of your bills are only payable in shitty US dollar fiat crap, so could you do a deeper dive into exactly how you are working a 100% BTC standard in your life. Thanks.

If everyone pulls out their cash from the banks, something definitely will spark.

God a really hope so. It would require a coordinated movement from the market all at the same time so regulators couldn't focus their resources on one place. We could overwhelm them. This would require some type of catalyst to get the movement going (good or bad). Either an Apple or Amazon sized company leading the conversion or an event like making cash illegal would prob trigger a Boston tea party event.

How do you manage all the tax implications of doing this? I want to as well but taxes are holding me back.

How did the Boston Tea Party "handle the taxes?"

I've always looked at bitcoin as a Boston Tea Party type of movement. We throw our fiat overboard to protest debasement. Why do you think we have so many boating accidents?

I'm curious about this too. I'm in Canada and I feel it would be possible to pull it off but I've no idea how.

Fake and Gay! You are so clearly LARPING! This is all fake. No one is using Bitcoin to pay for anything of importance. Their is no circular Bitcoin commune, and as far as I can see there never will be. Post a tutorial showing how you pay for stuff with Bitcoin. (You won't because it would be very uninspiring showing you pay a premium to some processor to spend USD for you.) You and the "community" don't have 1 millionth the gusto it takes to have a Boston tea party. LMAO
