I beg to differ. There's a reason actually paying with Bitcoin/ETH/crypto somewhere (anywhere) is celebrated on crypto twitter, /r/bitcoin, etc.
After 14 years it's still a novel and rare enough experience people feel the need to record videos of it and post them online to celebrate "adoption".
Imagine sending a tweet in 2020 (14 years after founding of Twitter) being noteworthy. Ridiculous, right? That's what crypto looks like to those of us not trapped in the bubble/echo chamber.
- smithcoin 3y agoThen why do “we” celebrate every little thing happening on Mastodon? Ridiculous right?
- kkielhofner 3y agoMastodon is at best seven years old. We're talking about 14 when it comes to crypto. Mastodon also doesn't have the "get rich quick" user adoption lure that has driven the majority of crypto "adoption". On that note, I once again point to crypto twitter, /r/bitcoin, etc where you see "what's your retirement plan with crypto?" posts constantly.

- Karunamon 3y agoI look at the past month top posts and see a grand total of three posts that even mention the price history, and precisely 0 that say anything about future performance or "getting rich". This is exceedingly poor-quality evidence for your claim.
