I just bought a Camera with Bitcoin

in #cryptocurrencies7 years ago

I was talking with my neighbour about Bitcoin and he told me he was interested in it for quite a while but he did not really know how to get started.

I promised him to help him out to make his first investment and we will set up a wallet together.

I really love helping people in this regard to get them interested and help them get started.

Anyways...

I mentioned that I want to buy a camera and he said he has one he never uses...so now I have a camera and he a bit of bitcoin.

Everybody wins

I know it is not the best time to sell Bitcoin but I feel if we really want to have it as a currency we should use it when we can especially if we can show someone else the light.

I totally agree with you and think that the whole transaction was excellent for both sides. Nicely done.

I agree with friends, we must help neighbors and people in need, very good post friends, I upvote and resteem yes

really happy for you

what price did you buy the camera with bitcoin?
btw thanks for share ur activity
@flipstar

the current rate

congratz must of felt good

it really does :-)

Very well said.This is a nice way the more people will involve in crypto currency it will be tough for the enemies of crypto to stop it.Helping others is always good.Thank's for sharing.

It's a kinds of earning for you.You taught him about bit coin and he gave you a camera.That's very nice trading.Recently i also try to convince people to join crypto market whatever the coin is.Some day crypto will rule the world.Just stick to it and don't panic in this kinds of situation.@upvoted and resteemed

Never sell always hodle

Könnte eine win-win Situation sein. Aber Dein Nachbar gewinnt vielleicht sogar auf den 1. Blick mehr. Ist aber nicht weiter schlimm, weil man ja auch gerne hilft...
Und dann wirst Du dich freuen, weil du ihm geholfen hast. Er wird Dir sehr dankbar sein. Und es ist doch eine 1:1 Win-Win Situation.
(nur mal so ein Gedanke...)

Langfristig gewinnt er mehr aber da ich ja ohne Handy bin und das meine Kamera war ist das mehr als ok für mich.

Ausserdem ein sehr netter Mensch und wie du sagst man hilft gerne und vor allem wenn es darum geht Crypto zu verbreiten. (Ausserdem ist es so sehr viel einfacher für mich, da meine Kreditkarte abgelaufen ist und ich schwer an Fiat komme ;-) )

haha , reminiscence of barter system . I think the little joy you got by giving bitcoin at small price made you feel better than that you sell at higher price ! Let's make everyone aware of the crypto

That is pretty damn cool! Private sales of stuff are always better! How is he going to store it? You guys going to do a hardware wallet??

We set him up an exodus wallet for now but he is gonna order a hardware wallet

Hell ya!! That’s awesome you got another individual involved in crypto!

Congrats for your new camera,we can expect lot of fire works from you.

lets see there are a lot of buttons I have no idea what they do :-)

Using a stone to kill two birds.
You have your bitcoin and you need to help a neighbour into cryptocurrency and also need a personal camera.

Of course, you can only have what you want when you have the power to achieve it.

Though the market is not right but helping doesn't have a right time either.

Aside

How do you centralize words on steemit?

without the spaces

Also I don`t know when there will be an opportunity like this again to buy a camera directly so I am happy to take it

Okay

Thanks... I will try it out. I highly appreciate this.

Back when bitcoin was around 1000ish I always use it to but stuff like VPNs and gambling of UFC fights. My thoughts were if I wanted it to become a currency that people use then I should use it myself. The bullrun late last year kinda changed how people see it but we should really go back to using it as currency.

I try to use it as much as I can.

There are other coins I am not willing to spend and I strongly believe I will "regret" every BTC I spend now but as you said it we want it to be a currency we should use it that way

congrats for you camera sir...👍 but where is the picture of your camera sir? in your next post i am expecting for your camera info.☺ & one more thing your new gif is awesome...👍

thanks :-)

there will be pictures in the future :-)

great... i'm waiting... 😁

Sehr cool,
Bitcoins und Cryptocurrencies im Alltag anzuwenden macht das ganze doch gleich ein Stück realer und bringt die Geschichte weiter voran.
Sauber! :)

Ja auf jeden Fall. In dem Fall eher für mich aber sobald die BTC in seiner Wallet waren, war er sehr begeistert

Your camera is good. Please also show your camera.

Hey Congrats,great to know about this.

You did an excellent deal because : a) You got a new camera and the price was good. b) You are teaching him about cryptos the best way, by example. c) He is happy and you are happy.

So cool that's the best use of bitcoin you just helped someone and bought a camera too so a good deal ;)

both are happy :-)

Well to speak of it I bought my laptop with BTC(via)
