Don’t Quit Your Fiat Job – Change The Money, Not The Industry
There’s some folks who believe that to “work in Bitcoin,” you need to leave your current profession and find a job with a Bitcoin company. But here’s the truth: you don’t need to quit your fiat job, to work in Bitcoin. All you need to do is quit fiat.
The real transformation happens when we changed the money from fiat to Bitcoin. When you stop thinking in fiat terms, and instead start measuring, saving, and transacting in sats.
So, don’t worry if you’re not writing code for a certain Bitcoin tool or managing infrastructure at a Bitcoin startup. That’s not the only path. If you’re providing real value in your community, you’re already doing work that matters. The only thing left is to get out of fiat and get into the real money.
Think about it this way: the Bitcoin ndustry it is the foundation of the future economy, and that future is happening now. Just like the internet became part of every industry. We don’t need everyone to flock into a handful of Bitcoin companies. All we need is, everyone to bring Bitcoin into their daily trade, their businesses, and their communities.
I think that’s the real revolution, we all are looking forward to: a teacher accepting sats for tutoring sessions, a farmer selling crops for Bitcoin, a local craftsman pricing goods in sats, a local groceries store accepting sats via LN payments. Every job becomes a Bitcoin job when you change the money.
The hardest part isn’t learning a new industry, but it’s rather breaking free from the mindset that your only option is fiat.
So don’t quit your fiat job. Keep doing what you’re good at. But stop doing it for fiat. Start doing it for Bitcoin ( a tool for: freedom, peace, love, hope, care and responsibility), which isn't just about figures. That’s how we all win.
Quit fiat, not your job.

Life is full of milestones, but few in life compare to the incredible joy of adding to your family. I am beyond excited to announce that my wife and I are expecting another Bitcoiner! As we welcome this new addition into our world, we're filled with hope and anticipation for both our future family and the future of the Bitcoin ecosystem.
For us, Bitcoin represents much more than what normal people can imagine. As parents, we see Bitcoin not just as a network of nodes but as a network of values: self-sovereignty, resilience, and truth in a world often clouded by uncertainty. We hope to be able to pass these principles along to our child and raise the child with the same commitment towards contributing positively to this revolutionary ecosystem.
Our child will grow up in a world where Bitcoin continues to reshape economies, empower individuals, and challenge elite systems. Whether they contribute through development, advocacy, or education, we hope they find their own unique way to uphold and strengthen the network.
To all the parents and future parents in the Bitcoin community, this journey is a reminder of why we do what we do. Building a future for the next generation means fostering a world where truth, freedom, and innovation thrive. Here's to raising the next generation of Bitcoiners who will keep the torch burning bright!
We can't wait to welcome our new Bitcoiner within the next two months, into the fold and are already dreaming of all the bedtime stories about the Satoshi's gift, from the history of money to the Whitepaper, to the genesis block, Satoshi's gift, and the magic of decentralization. To my wife, the strongest and most inspiring partner: Thanks for being part of this great journey that is my life. Special thanks to [KG](npub1773r2y5zl3sa7xufmye96un3hf02rse8j82hkd45ps0wvk2hrkasslesjt), and thank you entire Bitcoin community: Thanks for building a better future: one step at a time, one code at a time, one block at a time. One sat at a time. Tick-tock Next block.
Bitcoin recently surged to a price of $100,000 in fiat terms, and while this milestone is undeniably significant for many, I find myself unexcited. To me, Bitcoin is much more than its price tag in dollars or any other fiat currency. It's a peaceful revolution, a movement built on principles that go far beyond manipulation and control.
**The Value of Bitcoin is Priceless**
Bitcoin has no price. Its value, unlike that of any other currency in the world, does not reside in the governments, central banks, or speculation by markets. In fact, Bitcoin's intrinsic worth lies in its fundamental principles. Its value is not a thing to be captured solely by fiat numbers, but rather it's the price of freedom, decentralization, and individual sovereignty which Bitcoin offers to the user.
**Bitcoin's Price in Fiat Terms Misses the Point**
When people talk about Bitcoin reaching $100,000 or even higher in fiat terms, it misses the larger point: Bitcoin isn't just a way to make money; it's a solution to the inherent flaws in traditional monetary systems. And the real beauty of Bitcoin lies in its independence from any central forces: decentralized, borderless, and-most importantly-not manipulable by any single entity.
**The Real Action: Bitcoin's Potential Above Fiat**
At its core, Bitcoin is the fairest form of money ever created. It operates without a founder, no central authority, and no pre-mine. It's an ecosystem where everyone has an equal opportunity to participate. It's a community-driven network where decisions are made through consensus and powered by the global collaboration of volunteers.
For me, the excitement is not about seeing Bitcoin at new ATH in fiat but in the potential of a world where Bitcoin is truly a reliable store of value and medium of exchange, immune to inflationary pressures and political meddling. What if I told you, **Bitcoin $100M soon, in fiat terms. But always remember that Bitcoin is priceless.
**Why the $100k Mark Doesn't Stir Me**
The excitement around Bitcoin’s fiat price may stem from a sense of speculation or a desire for financial gain, but these are not the reasons Bitcoin was created. The $100k price is an arbitrary figure that reflects market speculation, not Bitcoin’s true potential. I’ve always believed that Bitcoin is priceless, and valuable because of its ability to restore power to the people, not making everyone rich in fiat terms, but making people free.
**The Force Is Strong**
What really excites me is not a new ATH. But the fact that Bitcoin empowers people, and the elite are unhappy with it, but there's nothing they can do to stop it.
