🟧Stop watching the price. Start driving the network. 📉📈
If we want 1 billion users, we have to move from Speculation to Utility.
Here are the 5 most critical steps to drive real Bitcoin adoption:
1. The "Spend & Replace" Rule 🔄
Hoarding doesn't build a circular economy. Spend your BTC on goods and services to create merchant demand—then immediately buy back the same amount. Keep your stack; grow the network.
2. Lightning First, On-Chain Second ⚡️
Don’t onboard newbies to Layer 1 (slow/expensive). Onboard them to Layer 2. If their first experience isn't instant and near-free, we lose them. Lightning is the only way to scale payments.
3. Pass the "Grandma Test" 👵
Self-custody is still too scary for the average person. We need to support wallets and tools that offer "Social Recovery" and simplified UX. If your grandma can't use it without calling you, it’s not ready.
4. Fix the Pitch 🗣️
Stop selling "Number Go Up."
Start selling "Insurance Against Debasement."
The West needs a savings account; the Global South needs censorship resistance. Tailor the solution to the problem.
5. Privacy is Fungibility 🛡️
For Bitcoin to remain money, 1 BTC must always equal 1 BTC. Normalize privacy tools and self-custody to prevent a surveillance chain.
The Bottom Line:
Price is a marketing budget. Adoption is the product. Build the product. 🧱
