Living on Bitcoin: My Journey into a Decentralized Life

in #bitcoin11 days ago

For years, I’ve been shifting my life away from traditional systems and toward Bitcoin. I calculate my expenses in sats, buy airtime and online data with BTC, and continue exploring new ways to integrate Bitcoin into my daily life. While I’m not yet fully living on Bitcoin, I am getting closer with each step.

Since discovering Nostr, my perspective on decentralization has deepened. More than just a financial shift, it's a complete lifestyle transformation. Years ago, after facing injustice in my home country, I took the first step toward a new way of living. That decision led me to where I am today — a minimalist, a nomad, and a believer in financial freedom through Bitcoin.

I once served in the military, owned a house, and drove a nice car. My life looked very different back then. But over time, I realized that true freedom wasn’t in possessions — it was in mobility, independence, and the ability to control my own finances. Now, all I own fits into a backpack weighing less than 12 kg. My lifestyle is simple, yet rich in experiences.

March 14 marks eight years since I embraced my nomadic lifestyle. What started as a leap into the unknown has become my way of life. Living with less has given me more — the freedom to move, to explore, and to be truly independent. The more I immerse myself in the Bitcoin ecosystem, the more I see its potential to reshape not only my life but the world around me.

The journey isn’t over. In fact, it’s just beginning. Let’s see where this path leads as I go further into the blockchain revolution!

Thanks for opening one more door to alternate options! I appreciate you.

You are Welcome!

Wao this is inspiring, choosing your time, freedom and happiness instead of money. I pray things become clearer and stable for you.

Thank You! Yes, lifetime is more important than money....

It seems you are enjoying your lifestyle with the photo bomb you shared. I will reblog your post.

Thank You! Photo Bomb! Where?

I meant sharing a lot of photos.

Lol, that's not a lot. It is always hard to decide what Photos I take from all those I made!

Such a brave thing to do, pursuing happiness into the unknown.

Awesome.

Yes. Nostr is an Awesome way to stack Satoshi.

Introduced me to WalletofSatoshi and the BitAxe Miner ….

And I never looked back.

How can we combine Nostr and Hive more? Feels like we should have a big overlap of interst and goals

I don't know, but the idea sounds good!

Yeah have to brainstorm about that, think there should be some good possibilites for cooperation between us and nostr

Keep working on it. Would be cool to have it.
