This is the way.

There are no shortcuts.

If you're not getting paid in Bitcoin them you didn't offer enough value to make it worth it.

Zaps are the same. Provide the value and the zaps will follow.

I love this take.
People have to take responsibility. Blaming the lack of buyers for the lack of Bitcoin spending is, frankly, stupid.

The problem here is not the lack of buyers it's the lack of sellers. Quality sellers. Gresham law is real and People have no incentives beyond idealism to spend their bitcoins for a mug they can buy at Walmart.

Bitcoin will first make it's way in the market of excellence. Bitcoin is exceptional and will first want to aquire the exceptional. If you want to grow the circular economy you must take your responsibility and learn to offer an exceptional product.

It's going to be hard tho I'm telling. This myth where you can just start selling stuff for bitcoin and people will line up to encourage you is... yeah a myth. Trust me after 2 years I know. You are gonna have to be excellent for real. There's no shortcut.

But that's Bitcoin and I believe the rewards will be just as great as the challenge was in a decade or two.

Take on a Bitcoin craft, lower your time preference, learn to be excellent and stop blaming the buyers. Just get good until you create the buyers.
