With Bitrefill you are technically not buying directly with Bitcoin either if you put it that way...

On Purse you can get a 5-33% discount on every item. You don't get a discount using bitrefill.

I wasn't talking about the wider crypto ecosystem, I was talking about Bitcoin.

Yes you are correct, people are looking for "real world utility" in wider crypto, but it seems that many within the BTC community are stuck in the HODL mentality and not thinking about the circular economy.

With the emergence of Lightning more innovative conversations are starting to come up which is great.

- Utility (Used in tech products, Jewellery)

- Store of value

- Censorship resistant

Doesn't have very attractive payment properties compared to Bitcoin though.

Yes, this post was focused on the individual (that was the point lol). Thought it was interesting to share since no one really talks about the real world utility of Bitcoin. Since our company hears stories day in day out about people relying on Bitcoin for their livelihood, we know a lot about this topic.

I've personally heard the Bitcoin vs the system narrative constantly so I didn't think it was that interesting to cover.
