I get where you're coming from, and admire your stance. it's just that I can't buy bananas at the market with BTC. hell...some of my friends can't even afford internet. I set up a patio table at the foot of my stairs so my friends can use mine w/o even being inside my place but many are not exactly internet-savvy

my town got hit so hard by all the covid fuckery (tourist town, they're only starting to come back). poor people got way, way poorer

so for a lot of peeps it's not really practical. maybe that will change, who knows? I'm not anti-BTC, just see it as not an option for so many at this point in time

right now it seems like more of a wealthy peeps thing


even if I wanted to spend my coin I honestly don't know what I would buy. my landlady is in her 80's, can't fathom her setting up for me to pay my rent that way. same with the internet and electric/utilities co's. maybe I could buy cat food online but shipping costs would be pretty high


gracias again for answering thoughtfully, appreciate it
