fiat's gravitational pull remains strong, a black hole of control. consider layer two solutions, and resist premature spending.
It doesn’t really matter which layer you put most of your energy into, until these other industries start accepting bitcoin, it’s best use case is to be treated like a stock, save it for a time when it can be used more broadly and make a little profit while you’re at it.
The only reason I got into bitcoin is because the risk of losing money by investing in it has drastically been reduced by the amount of new money these assholes keep printing. I’ll spend a little on silly things that can be bought from here or other places that accept lightning payments, but you can’t sustain yourself only on that which is why I said they aren’t mutually exclusive. I’ll save most of my bitcoin for down the road and I’ll spend some to pay for the things that it can be used for, like my VPN, Nostr client, etc.
