Wine is fragile and difficult to ship.
Bitcoin is volatile internet money.
Neither seemed like a foundation for a business—
until I found my best customers: Bitcoiners.
🧵 How I took my winery from zero to all-in:
2021
I’d just started selling my wine at farmers markets.
One day, a guy asked, “Do you accept crypto?”
I said, “I’ll take your bitcoin,” and had no idea how I’d actually do that.
He walked away.
But it stuck in my mind.
The first person who ever asked.
I was a Bitcoiner, but didn’t think that had anything to do with wine.
Bitcoiners were 0% of my sales.
2022
I joined Twitter. Went to my first Bitcoin conference.
And the people in it? They were my people.
Honest. Curious. Genuine. Driven.
A few folks started asking if they could buy wine with bitcoin.
I said yes—not because I saw a business opportunity.
I just wanted more bitcoin.
I added a little Bitcoin logo to my wine bottles.
Put up a “Bitcoin Accepted Here” sign at the farmers market.
But that was mostly for my own obsession.
I mostly had old men come up and warn me about bitcoin’s volatility.
But sometimes, real ones would trickle through.
One woman saw the sign and said:
“You accept Bitcoin?? I HAVE TO GO GET MY HUSBAND.”
I could tell she was married to someone who couldn’t stop talking about bitcoin, like me.
Sure enough, I now consider him a friend.
Bitcoin sales still felt more like a fun side quest than a real channel.
Bitcoiners were ~10% of my sales.
2023
This is when I felt the shift.
Early in the year, bitcoin sales started covering my living expenses.
By the holidays, the momentum was undeniable.
Still not everything—but enough to make me pay attention.
Bitcoiners weren’t just buyers.
They were thoughtful. Loyal. Fun to talk to.
It didn’t feel like marketing—it felt like alignment.
Bitcoiners were ~50% of my sales.
2024
Things got wild.
I released Satoshi’s Reserve, a wine I’d quietly been setting aside since 2021.
The auction blew past anything I’d seen before.
In dollar terms, it beat the entire prior year of online sales.
Then I dropped HIGHER, my second bitcoin-focused wine.
Another record. Same story:
Enthusiasm. Loyalty. People telling other people to support me.
Meanwhile, I was still at farmers markets.
Twelve-hour days every weekend.
Pitching the same story to strangers who’d never come back.
Bitcoiners were showing up, rebuying, and selling for me.
That made the decision easy.
Bitcoiners were ~75% of my sales.
2025
No more farmers markets.
No more trying to reach “everyone.”
I’m all in on Bitcoiners now.
I’ll probably make less money this year.
But I’ll be fired up by everything I do.
And I’ll have complete alignment between my job and my mission.
Selling wine for bitcoin isn’t just good business.
It feels like doing my part to make the world better.
And the fact that I get to do that with wine from my family vineyard?
That’s about as soul-filling as it gets.
Bitcoiners didn’t just become my best customers.
They joined my mission.
Bitcoiners have high expectations, are discerning and HATE deception, but if you have that, then they are dying to become your best customers.
Plant a Flag.
Bitcoin Preferred.

“Money is money.”
That’s what most businesses say—so they accept bitcoin, ETH, XRP, whatever.
But if you think bitcoin and crypto are the same,
YOU'RE MISSING OUT ON THE MOST LOYAL CUSTOMERS YOU'VE NEVER TARGETED
Bitcoiners and crypto holders aren’t the same.
Not even close.
Most crypto holders are just gambling.
They might think it’s cool that you accept their token—
but it won’t drive them to action.
Bitcoiners are built different.
They’re on a mission.
And they’re watching to see if you are too.
If you want to reach them, you have to signal that you see the difference.
That starts by accepting bitcoin—not crypto.
You’re not excluding anyone.
You’re choosing to INCLUDE the group that actually cares.
You might not get bitcoin payments right away.
That’s fine.
What you will get is attention from a group that rewards alignment.
And over time, that turns into loyalty.
Most businesses don’t realize how naturally they align with Bitcoiners:
→ Long-term thinking
→ Products that last
→ Messaging that’s genuine, not performative
If that’s what you already value, plant your flag.
Extend the olive branch.
Bitcoiners will notice.
And when they do, they don’t just buy once.
They become your favorite customers—
the militant ones who shill your product to everyone they know.
It happened for me.
It can happen for you.
https://m.primal.net/QAoB.png

2025-03-31 17:01:46

Most businesses still treat Bitcoiners like a rounding error.
A weird little niche that keeps yelling at them to accept Bitcoin.
But in 2024, they helped swing a national election.
If you sell a quality product online, this is a group worth paying attention to.
I didn’t plan to build a wine brand around Bitcoiners.
At first, they were just 10% of my customers.
Then 50%.
Then 75%.
Now—they’re all I think about.
Not just because I’m one of them.
Because they showed up—and kept showing up.
They buy. They come back. They tell their friends.
They fight for you.
Bitcoiners aren’t passive customers.
They’re militants for your brand—if you’re aligned.
They can smell inauthenticity a mile away.
If you’re cutting corners or chasing trends, they’ll move on.
But if you’re honest—and you make something built to last—they’ll notice.
And when they do, they become the kind of customer most brands only dream of.
This week, I’m going to share what I’ve learned—mostly by accident—about building for Bitcoiners.
What worked, what didn’t, and why now is an amazing time for your business to start paying attention. https://m.primal.net/PzgO.jpg

The days are getting longer.
You can feel it: that first night you stay outside without realizing it, just soaking in the air.
This time of year peaceful reset we all forget we need. 🍷
My 2022 Cab Sauv was made for nights like that.
This Cabernet Sauvignon is mid-bodied, smooth, and juicy.
Served at cellar temp, the deep cherry notes are electric and as it warms in your glass, it unfolds into depth and richness.
It's a red you’ll crave as the weather warms.
It pairs like a dream with anything from the grill: flank steak, lamb, mushrooms...
But it’s more than that.
It’s the wine you open for that first evening where its warm enough to eat dinner outside.
The cherry character in this wine is more than just flavor.
I grew up where hot days, cool nights, and high elevation made fruit come alive. That same vibrant energy now runs through the grapes I grow—and the wines I make.
If that energy could be bottled—this would be it.
Not every red wine belongs in summer.
This one does.

When I first put out my "Bitcoin accepted here" sign I never expected anyone to actually pay with it.
Dan Held was someone who I listened to a lot early on in my Bitcoin journey and he randomly popped up at a farmers market to become the second person to ever buy my wine with Bitcoin.
It's become clear that he's no longer really fully on board with this mission we're on, but I'll always appreciate him for helping me get started on my journey.

Too much energy is spent trying to get the attention of big brands to adopt Bitcoin as a treasury asset, while almost no one is talking about the businesses that actually stand to gain the most from Bitcoin adoption—small, independent companies that make things Bitcoiners actually want.
Bitcoiners are a rabid customer base who want to buy Quality Products from Quality Businesses that align with their values. I’ve felt this firsthand with Peony Lane and can only imagine what could happen if more small businesses saw the opportunity in front of them.
The reality is, we as individuals have no control over Bitcoin’s price. We can’t magically make adoption happen overnight. But we do have the power to speed up the transition to a circular Bitcoin economy by doing what we already do—spending our money with businesses that are open to Bitcoin.
Here’s the thing: People follow incentives. Businesses chase where the demand is. If more companies see Bitcoiners as a dedicated, high-intent customer base, they’ll naturally start integrating Bitcoin payments—not because they read a book about Austrian economics, but because Bitcoiners showed up and proved that Bitcoin is good for business.
That’s why I’m working on a new project with @nprofile…j3fc where we travel the country meeting founders where they are at, to see how we can introduce them to bitcoiners and bitcoiners to them. We want to make it as easy and obvious as possible for them to adopt bitcoin because once that happens, we think bitcoiners will take the wheel
Nick at @nprofile…heu5 was our first trip. He was blown away with the support he saw on NOSTR instantly and figured out how to integrate Bitcoin payments on his site with the help of random nostriches (not us). You'll see/learn more about this trip in the weeks to come, but lets just say, it made me extremely bullish about this mission we are on.
We all want to exit the fiat matrix. We all want to live off Bitcoin. The fastest way to make that a reality? Make Bitcoin commerce impossible to ignore. We can make the change that we want to see.

COVID was Peak Fiat.
You don’t have to trust Trump or Elon to see they’re fighting back against woke craziness. It’s obvious in both foreign and domestic policy, with the contrast against Europe making it even clearer.
I expect JD Vance to win the presidency after Trump and continue in this direction. But in the grand scheme, I don’t think that makes a difference in what’s coming next.
In four years, Bitcoin will be the size of gold. The Nation-States desperately trying to keep the fiat Ponzi alive will be the ones in clear decline.
Worried about free speech? Give NOSTR another four years to grow from infancy. The foundations are already being built.
The fiat world will keep getting crazier—clinging harder and harder to relevance. But it will never again have the power over the world that it had in 2020.
I don’t think the Hard Times are over. But the Strong Men have been forged. And the good times? They’re coming.
