It is a lovely sentiment, but I believe the bitcoin economy will come from spending it *not* holding it. So, the future lies somewhere in between. For example on Thursday, I received my wages in bitcoin via direct deposit conversion at Strike. Then, today I purchased a Safeway grocery gift card on BitRefill which I promptly converted to food for my family. I experienced an increase in buying power of my bitcoin of 1.7% (1% in Satoshi rewards from BitRefill and 0.7% increase in bitcoin/USD value). #bitcoin #⚡️ #justuseit
