Business owners in #Queenstown aren’t just struggling—they’re suffocating under the weight of rising costs and a broken system.
But there is hope. 🕊️
The local businesses here that have started accepting #Bitcoin are finding new life. Lower fees, instant settlement, and a community of values-aligned customers.
People think this only happens in struggling countries. But even in beautiful, opportunity-rich places like New Zealand, everyday people are drowning in debt and stress.
It's become common place amongst 'first world countries' The people are often treading water at best and trying hard to portray an image of success and financial stability - but the opposite is true.
Following the steps of their parents and not achieving the same results.
Overwhelming debt and desperation behind closed doors, not knowing how to get out of the rat race. A matrix designed to trick the inhabitant that one day everything will just be better - because of a group of people that can look after you.
The system isn't built for our prosperity.
But #Bitcoin was.
