Next Billion Users
summary
Argues that Bitcoin’s fixed supply and incentive design shift behavior toward saving and long-term planning, and that practical onboarding happens when ordinary apps pay users in sats — examples include credit cards offering cashback in Bitcoin, proposals for social platforms to pay attention with sats, and Brazil stories where local inflation runs ~20% yearly and Rolante 90% acceptance shows merchants will accept BTC. Notes technical enablers like the Lightning network, plus persistent frictions: custody, volatility, and users tending to hoard rather than spend.
