Everything Will Be Priced in Bitcoin in the Future!

from The SatsMate Stack · host Paul SatsMate

What is up SatsCrew, Many people are trying to imagine how the future would look like if the world was on a Bitcoin standard. If this were the case, we would all have wallets and would be able to transact with lightning on L2s & above. When you go to a grocery store, to get your hair cut or pay the landscaper - all would be willing to accept their services in satoshis. Maybe a gallon of milk will be 750 sats, a landscaper's service will cost 7,000 sats and to cut your hair it will be 3,000 sats. The point is things will be priced in sats. We won't look at bitcoin through the worldview of the USD anymore, rather we will look at sats as the unit of account. While this seems like a far-fetched vision, there is a slight possibility this could happen in Western nations - as it is currently happening in El Salvador and many circular economies around the world. In today's podcast - I discuss how this future may look - specifically:What does pricing everything in Bitcoin meanHow this is beneficial is that it changes the primary unit of account, but also creates more ease for both the buyer and the sellerNo more currency conversion and understanding spot exchange rates/exchange feesThe risk of this is the volatilityIf there are certain vendors/obligations you have with people not on the Bitcoin standardAs the adoption grows, volatility will eventually smooth out or go downOver the past 14 years it has been tremendously volatileOptions for accepting over Bitcoin rails and converting into the currency of your choiceBetter yet, accept over Bitcoin rails, and move a percentage into your treasury for BTC and the rest in cash for day-to-day operationsWe haven’t even approached the widespread acceptance phase99.99% of vendors in the U.S. don’t even accept bitcoin yetPricing in Bitcoin will be the future, but first there needs to be more educationVolatility needs to smooth out for 100% acceptanceGaining legal tender status does help as most businesses will just take the fiat currency in the country they are inA future priced in bitcoin is a future of understanding the asset, but also better and more walletsI hope you all enjoyed this one! How would you expect the future to look like on a bitcoin standard? Best Regards,SatsMateReferral to Stacker News: Circular economy with bitcoin discussions involved!  https://stacker.news/r/SatsMatePrimary Bitcoin Buys Through Strike: The primary place I go to buy Bitcoin. https://invite.strike.me/2MSTYG Secondary Bitcoin Buys Through Fold: A nice exchange w/ rewards & bitcoin buys.https://use.foldapp.com/r/HTFKVY9Lhttps://zbd.gg/GalmaDuFria This is my personal QR code.
