“Somehow learning about bitcoin has scaled the farmers market ethos.”

I really like this framing.

You shop differently at a farmers market.

I sold wine at farmers markets for 4 years. People were there to buy local, treat themselves, and to feel good for the weekend.

I didn't see much followthrough outside that environment. People kept that part of their lives boxed into one day a week during the Summer.

I found the same ethos in the Bitcoin circular economy. Buy quality from businesses building the world you want, but bitcoiners seem to integrate that mindset into the rest of their lives instead of boxing it in.

Somehow learning about bitcoin has scaled the farmers market ethos.

The Bitcoin Circular Economy is a "buy local" movement that is actually working and scaling.
