“Bitcoin is just a store of value.” No, that’s the wrong way around.

Bitcoin is money. The best medium of exchange we’ve ever created.

Money has one job: help people trade.
Everything else, store of value, unit of account, flows from that.

Plenty of things store value: real estate, land, gold.
Bitcoin stores it better.

But that’s not what makes it money.
What makes it money is saleability, how easily you can trade it.

And Bitcoin wins:

⚡ Saleable across time (fixed 21M)
⚡ Saleable across space (moves globally in seconds)
⚡ Saleable across scale (100M sats per coin)

The only thing missing? Acceptance.

Your landlord wants euros. Most merchants still don’t take Bitcoin.

That gap is real, but it’s closing fast.

We wrote a full article on what Bitcoin actually is,
and how we’re solving the acceptance problem.

Hey guys! Glad that you guys want us to go global.

But we're currently laser-focused on getting the Eurozone on to a Bitcoin standard.

We just hit a milestone of 100 BTC worth of transactions processed! 🎉

We planned on hitting this target at the end of the year, but we crushed it a couple months early.

Best part? 65%+ of transactions were made using Lightning⚡
(Fun fact for Nostr users: Bringin can connect to Nostr using NWC)

Users are spending sats regularly! 🟠

No euros in my bank account.
Just a Lightning wallet on my phone.

Still bought food, at a place that doesn’t accept sats.
The Bitcoin Standard isn’t just a book anymore.

How living the Standard looks with Bringin in 3 simple steps.

1. Go to the supermarket, pick everything you need.
2. At checkout? Send a Lightning transfer to your Bringin Lightning address.
3. Euros land instantly. Tap your card. Done.

Lightning fast and works everywhere Visa does.

Bonus tip: You can also connect Bringin to your own Lightning node through @nprofile1q... Hub, or link your @nprofile1q... wallet if you're into Nostr, and convert sats into euros directly from your wallet within Bringin.

This is how you live on Bitcoin in Europe. ⚡️
