Obi-₿it Koinobi on Nostr: The thought of having my whole check go directly into bitcoin only for me to have to ...
The thought of having my whole check go directly into bitcoin only for me to have to convert back into dollars to pay bills, buy food, etc makes me want to hurl.
That being said, it seems like it could be a good deterent against unnecessary spending habits if every time you go to spend money you have to get rid of bitcoin to do so. It makes you a lot more cognizant in the moment of the importance of not spending it. You think twice. If it's sitting there in dollars not only is it losing value there's a continual temptation to conveniently spend it.
