Sold one coin today to put a down payment on my house Yes I know Bitcoin will keep going up much faster than a house But I saved it and waited 2 cycles so I can finally escape the pod I've lived in for 20 years I've never owned a bbq or had a yard or a garage Thank you Satoshi

Congrats man. Its a big step you've taken. Obviously such a hard decision but remembering whats important in ones life should be top priority. May life give you back that coin ten-fold by the productivity you'll have in that house.

Good for you! Remember to minimize your down payment to the lowest possible. Maximize the loan to retained and/or repurchase the Bitcoin that can be held alongside it long term. Just do the math and do what’s best for you, but at least do the math.

Depending on how much is worth, what state is located and how much of that value you’ve paid, then you can take a HELOC and use it to buy back your bitcoin 🫡congrats

Bitcoin IS money. This means that you use it to save the returns from your labor and spend it in due time on whatever it is you want to buy. Yes, it will continue to go up, so what? Bitcoin won't be money if we don't treat it as such: save what you can save, and spend what you need to spend.

Congrats! My hope is to sell some sats in the future to an individual for his/her property. I hope to hold out until I can do this. But I’ve owned my homes for decades and it IS the best feeling! Happy for you!

Not to rain on the parade, but you could’ve used that as collateral for a BTC-backed loan—platforms like nostr:nprofile1qy2hwumn8ghj7etyv4hzumn0wd68ytnvv9hxgqgdwaehxw309ahx7uewd3hkcqpqex7mdykw786qxvmtuls208uyxmn0hse95rfwsarvfde5yg6wy7jqjrm2qp make it doable. Still, props on escaping the pod. 🫡

Eventually it becomes necessary to spend your Bitcoin. nevent1qqstndfm9n7u8t7z8uwqwa8xygl3r0d63zprjxgjx6ugwnqsdygrl9cprdmhxue69uhhyetvv9ujucnfw33k76twwpshy6ewvdhk67uude9

Very cool, congrats. I might do the same but my Bitcoiner brain tells me to wait one more cycle and then just buy the house outright. Damn you Satoshi for creating the hardest money the world has known

Well done bitcoin is for saving purchasing power to invest in the future. A house to live in is an investment on your life, your family, your future, your independence and freedom. That is what #bitcoin is for. A farm, a business, agricultural land are all worthwhile assets in which at some time everyone will have to convert some of its bitcoin. Congrats👏 👍

Best feeling in the world !!! All those firsts … it’s wild when you’re year 2 or 3 in and looking around at your place & seeing it become your home. Congrats !!!

Man, that's huge—congrats on escaping the pod and stepping into a new chapter with a house! I get it, HODLing through two cycles is no small feat, and using those gains to secure a yard and a garage is something to celebrate. Sure, Bitcoin's gonna moon, but having a place to fire up a BBQ and call your own? That's living the dream. Satoshi would be proud you turned his vision into something real for you.
