Building Bringin - An app that helps you live on Bitcoin standard today!
Developing countries need Bitcoin more than anyone else. Unfortunately, it is hard to build a bridge from their currency to Bitcoin with no regulation around cryptocurrencies.
Gold and real estate are commonly used to escape inflation in India. Neither of them is that convenient to buy, spend (or convert to spendable currency) - so obviously people are forced to hold INR, which is losing its value rapidly.
Bitcoin is a new age tool for anti-inflation - the best part is that it is money itself
With @Bringin | The Complete ₿itcoin App - You can buy and spend 1 min upto 2-3k and 11 mins upto 15k Euros with just a few clicks. Now there are no excuses - it is only opportunity cost for holding Fiat.
Since Bitcoin is volatile, it would be hard for businesses to invest all in it. However, they can add some of it to their treasury. At Bringin, we do the same. But I live from paycheck to paycheck, with no savings—I went all in on Bringin.
Now I'm all in on Bitcoin, and I don’t keep Euros. Yes, I do provide for my family, and it's scary that my salary, or half of it, could be reduced by 15%. But I believe in the compounding upside of holding Bitcoin in the long term.
I test Bringin every single day to fit this use case. Although the bugs here and there have not been kind to me sometimes 😂. So, if you want some tools that allow you to buy and sell Bitcoin reliably and instantly 24/7, just use Bringin as it is being battle-tested to be used for people who want to live on the Bitcoin standard. It just works.
I hold sats in my Alby Hub and only convert it to fiat when I am about to order or pay for something. So I do this all the time. It has to work or I will be in trouble. I have been in trouble many times in the recent past. Not much recently.
If you want to live on a Bitcoin standard, I don't think there are many good alternatives.
We built a demo where an AI agent buys an eSIM and pays using Bitcoin. The payment is made from a Euro balance using Lightning. No credit card,—just AI transacting in Bitcoin. Here’s what happens in the demo:
-> The AI picks the best eSIM plan (Rigged for the Demo)
-> It makes a Bitcoin payment over Lightning
-> It uses a Euro balance to send sats
This works using:
-> Lightning for instant and cheap transactions
-> Bringin APIS exposed via MCP Model context protocol
Bitcoin is internet-native money. AI agents will need a way to transact, and Bitcoin is the best fit. But there are scaling issues with Bitcoin and being able to provide secure controlled access.
That's where Lightnign and Nostr Wallet Connect come into the picture. They enable instant, cheap payments with controlled secure access to AI to make payments. Bitcoin adoption is not keeping up with AI development.
Most AI services are still stuck with fiat payment rails—slow, expensive, and restrictive. That’s where on/offramp providers should step in. Like how Bringin is doing.
I also wrote a blog post breaking down how Bitcoin can power AI payments. Check it out here:
