My sister is a bit of an amateur nature photographer. Let’s show her some love with likes and even zaps and I’ll be able to coax her into sending more! She’s definitely better at it than I am. #nature #photography #wildlife
Had another funny response today to my typical “buy Bitcoin” recommendation when people start talking finances.
I received another “you will be in trouble when EMP….” comment.
I asked if he used cash in all of his transaction, to which he of course said no.
I still don’t understand the straw man statement of using the dystopian argument of a Bronze Age style collapse. Of course it would be problematic for us, and everyone else, in a digital age.
It’s a useless dismissal that is only meant to end the discussion and avoid thinking of anything out of their comfort zone.
I suppose there is still a long way to go before we pass early adoption.
People get #bitcoin at the price they deserve, as they say. 😏
When the microwave oven was first introduced in the late 1940s, it was a marvel of science that most people didn’t trust. The idea of cooking food with invisible waves sounded strange and even dangerous.
Early adopters were wary of radiation exposure, doubtful of its effectiveness, and hesitant to replace traditional cooking methods. Microwaves were expensive, bulky, and unfamiliar. For years, they were seen as a gimmick, not a serious kitchen appliance.
But over time, something changed. As the technology improved and prices fell, people slowly embraced the convenience. The microwave didn’t replace the stove. In fact, it redefined how people approached quick, efficient meals. What was once mocked and misunderstood is now found in nearly every kitchen on Earth.
Bitcoin faces a similar path today. To many, it’s still viewed as confusing, risky, or even dangerous. Critics call it volatile, unnecessary, or a fad. Like early microwave skeptics, they don’t see the utility. Not yet, anyway. But Bitcoin isn’t trying to replace the traditional financial system overnight. It offers a new way to store and transfer value: permissionless, borderless, and resistant to inflation.
History has shown that new technologies often feel threatening before they become indispensable. Just as we can’t imagine a home without a microwave today, the time may come when financial systems that don’t include Bitcoin feel incomplete.
