#asknostr - what happened to Parker Lewis (npub1w69…zltw) -
Man drops truth bombs and appears to be a huge advocate and voice of reason for Bitcoin as Money.
Where be Parker?? For two years there has been no Parker on Nostr. Given his advocate for Bitcoin through his great work - Pay Me In Bitcoin Theory it seems a shame we no longer receive the thoughts and words of Parker in this space.
For those unfamiliar, he wrote in his Gradually, Then Suddenly essay: Pay-Me-in-Bitcoin Theory,
• Someone must understand why bitcoin stores value to want to be paid in it
• Receiving bitcoin payments is a balance sheet decision at the end of day
• Merchants will drive the shift to bitcoin payments
• Specifically merchants who understand why bitcoin stores value
• Business owners are ultimately in control of what currency to accept
• Spending bitcoin can be both rational and irrational for consumers
• Spending bitcoin is rational if the merchant is valued and saves in bitcoin
• Accepting bitcoin payments does not mean not accepting fiat payments
• The transition to payments will be gradual, similar to saving in bitcoin
If anyone knows Parker personally saying from me, I would love to see you back on Nostr!
Praying you are well and still transacting with Bitcoin as money!
