Life on the Bitcoin standard.

[BitGoba]

I watched last night the Bitcoin Podcast with Walker, where the guest was the well-known Canadian Bitcoin YouTuber Ben BTCSession
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fv6X7jg26wE

He talked about his experiences living on the Bitcoin standard.

Since I started attending Bitcoin meetups of the Balkan Bitcoin community, Ive met several people who live on the full Bitcoin standard. Some of them have shared their experiences on the Balkan Bitcoin community YouTube channel.

 Im curious if anyone on the forum lives on the Bitcoin standard and what your experiences of living on the Bitcoin standard are in other parts of the world.

Something he said that is absolutely true. Everybody who hears of Bitcoin for the first time thinks they missed the boat. This is very true. People who meet bitcoin at $1 felt they missed the boat, people who met it at $10 felt they missed the boat, same with people who met it at $100, $1,000, $10,000 and now there are people seeing bitcon close to $120k and they still feel they missed the boat, but they fail to see that one day it might be a million dollar. And they're not saying that it will cap at a million, because it has the potential to even get to ten million. Currently, there is no limit to what Bitcoin can achieve.

This is not something I can do even if I want to. There are a few people who may accept bitcoin, but they're very few, not even up to 0.001% of the people. Coincidentally, you may meet an Uber driver or a vendor that accepts Bitcoin, but you might not meet more than 5 of them the whole year  .

Living on a BTC standard is too early of a thing to do, imo..

In many places, even where the crypto is cherished, there is not that much infrastructure and people going for BTC as the main option..

Most people are living on Bitcoin standard already, what you don't know or understand is that Bitcoin standard isn't about rejecting the old system entirely, it is about building a parallel one, the one that offers more freedom, this was why I choose Bitcoin in the first place.

The majority of my properties that I bought since 2023 was paid through Bitcoin payment, from mining hardwares to electronics like my computer build and also some home appliances.

Living on a Bitcoin standard is by choice, and also a practical life style, Bitcoin rocks because it is capable for use as a means of been in total control of your financial future, preservation of wealth and also fighting for that same monetary global revolution.

I am really not interested in watching videos but I can share a very famous story of a family that sold all their assets, their house, and have lived with Bitcoin standard in many years.

How One Family’s ‘Adventurous’ Decision Changed Everything

About the family, I am unknown that how they can secure their safety as they are famous and they travel around with bitcoins. It's kind of very dangerous travelling and nomadic life and I think their family life would be better if they keep their investment in bitcoins privately.

Life on Bitcoin stardard is the primary mediums of exchange and store of value and it varies in different aspects of life.

Bitcoin stardard can make Individuals  have full control over their financial transactions and assets, Bitcoin can also lead to reduce the rate at which government has control over financial transactions.
The idea of living on Bitcoin stardard Sparks the potential increase access to financial services to some regions, because Bitcoin increase significantly making investment very lucrative.
This also has Bitcoin limited supply making it a potential hedge against inflation

Now if you adopt Bitcoin stardard you will experience a shift in how you manage your finances,one needs to understand the epics and stay informed about the Bitcoin market trends, and the security measures.

Bitcoin stardard of life offers both opportunities and challenges,it's good to understand the implications and the risks involved in adopting Bitcoin as a value for exchange services

I'm curious about what the Bitcoin standard of living is like because so far I've only considered myself a small investor taking advantage of opportunities to achieve financial stability. This has certainly worked out well for me personally, as since learning about Bitcoin investing, my overall financial situation has improved, although I'm not yet wealthy. I think many people have benefited significantly from investing in Bitcoin, as this asset offers the potential to achieve financial freedom if invested consistently.

If you are investing in bitcoin, using bitcoin for payments to have anything, it's your life engagement with Bitcoin. I think it's enough for a Bitcoin standard life and you don't need to invest many satoshis or bitcoins for having a Bitcoin standard life.

With very good future of Bitcoin in my belief, and I also many other people think the same, it's recommended to invest as most as possible into bitcoin, and hold your bitcoins for as longest time as possible, though it's kind of wrong thinking to say only people who have considerable amount of bitcoin can have a Bitcoin standard life.

Investment in Bitcoin is good but only invest your discretionary income as it can help your investment management better, more easily and less risky.

I think it's more of a concept than something concrete, in my opinion.

If you use your BTC for services and not only for that, you are already doing a big job and a good one at that.

It has been previously discussed before on this forum about a man that lives his entire life depending only on bitcoin for buying and selling or any other financial transaction he may wish to partake, secondly, other instances whereby the people have been using a decentralized exchanges for their p2p trading and transactions, because they wanted to make use of the opportunity in this same offer from what bitcoin has come to render.

Lastly, you will also discover how bitcoin has been used in making online transactions and payments, store of value and many other benefits that individuals and organizations have to depend on it for their daily use, all these examples mentioned are part of the life on a daily basis with bitcoin.

This doesn't meaning the meaning of the Bitcoin standard of living, as the OP expressed it. It shouldn't be limited to larger burials, even if it does relate to large sums that can live a Bitcoin-standard lifestyle. The interesting part of this discussion isn't the standard factor, but rather how everyone can responsibly approach this decision. If we look more broadly, there are still many people who have money but don't and are still untouched by Bitcoin. Simply put, it's not how they get started, but how they persist and continue to strive to increase their interest in investing, and ultimately, they will find a path to the financial freedom that most people desire.

You can disagree with me, agree with OP, I give you respect for different thinkings between us but honestly, my life is not decided by any standard like Bitcoin standard defined by OP or you. I am happy with my investment in Bitcoin, are confident with my accumulation and holding for long term, and along the way, I am ready to spend small part of my bitcoin, take profit partially to use. That's how I am living with bitcoin and I feel good with my own Bitcoin standard life.

The book, The bullish case for Bitcoin, with many insights can help us having more knowledge about Bitcoin, build up our strong belief in its bullish future, increase our confidence in investment, and have kind of Bitcoin standard life. As said, different people have different criteria for their Bitcoin life.

Many people these days prefer to hold bitcoin as a store of value and do not consider spending it on other things.
Hence living a life on bitcoin standard, as in making all payments using bitcoin would not be the ideal choice for many.
But yeah, there are several people who have made their life with bitcoin, that is, by investing in bitcoin and gaining massive profits.

[Dunamisx]

We have to look at it this way, fiat has been used as a payment currency only and does not best fit in for a store of value, because of inflation, while in bitcoin, we have have both being applicable and serve on these purpose, because it increases in value over time, we are left with the choice of either investing, trading, holding, or preserving our asset value in bitcoin over a long time and still enjoy any other benefits that could comes under the use of a decentralized network.

As they say, now is the lowest or cheapest you will see bitcoin so if you could afford to buy it now do not even hesitate and do so. A lot of people have waited too much that they end up missing out on a particular bull run or pump of the market so they regret it.

It is quite interesting. Is bitcoin well accepted in the balkans region? I do not even think a lot of people know where balkan region is lol. It is definitely not the most famous parts of Europe. But those are European countries and if they are living with the bitcoin standard already then that is quite impressive.

Accordingly it depends upon how a person thinks
As Bitcoin earnings are huge after conversion in Indian rupee and considering the rate going on right now that's +100k in $ and it's more than 1 cr. in Indian rupees
So it is obvious that a person can live a KING's life in INDIA
And hopefully I would suggest people to come and visit India if it could be possible for them to live 7 star life...
which I also hope to live in 0 dimension ,
I feel like I talk and discuss dimensional level knowledge so a real life experience is also necessary that's why i want to earn money  and wanted to grab opportunity earlier but NOW it's right time to earn in Satish's

Living on a BTC standard is too early of a thing to do, imo..

In many places, even where the crypto is cherished, there is not that much infrastructure and people going for BTC as the main option..

True that, the only thing most people can do is to hodl Bitcoin, and convert it to use whenever they want to fund anything.  In my country, although we are Bitcoin-friendly since Bitcoin is recognized as a mode of payment, only a few establishments are accepting Bitcoin, and even our popular online shopping platforms don't have an option to pay in BTC.  So it is hard to have a life on the Bitcoin standard unless a person is living in a place where Bitcoin payment is a norm.

Currently, it is 1.1 crore but is it enough to live like a king?

1 crore will get you an 600sqft apartment in the tier 1 cities and I am not including the registration and other bribes so if you managed to save 1.1 crore then good luck you got the tiny apartment under your name.

If you want to live like a king then it will cost hundreds of crores because even the basic government officials make money in crore with all the bribes they are taking for every signature.

How do you think the infrastructure becomes available? Someone who wanted to live on the BTC standard started making it happen. If you don't do anything for it due to laziness then you can't expect it to be available for you. Some people are lucky and live in there areas though.

Did you ask any of these businesses to start accepting Bitcoin?

This has nothing to do with agreeing or disagreeing, but rather, we should discuss it based on our individual understandings and perhaps the goal of seeing better results based on facts. Everyone has goals for a better life, especially utilizing Bitcoin in an effort to achieve financial freedom. Perhaps you share my view on long-term Bitcoin investment. But the difference is that I've never spent my Bitcoin to sell it for a specific purpose, as I'll sell it based on a percentage of the price once it reaches its peak. Differences of opinion are natural, as we live in a free space that requires mutual respect.
