BTC bounced back from around $87,000 to the $85,000–range area. At night, the easiest illusion to have is: thinking the position is still there, so the money must still be there.
But I’m increasingly convinced that the next round of crypto assets entering everyday life won’t happen through grander narratives—it’ll happen by first getting some very small, very specific spending actions to work.
For example, an AI membership at $29.90, a code tool you’ll need tomorrow morning, extra cloud service credits the team needs to top up temporarily, or a $50–$200 brand gift card. The amounts aren’t large, but they’re especially vulnerable to “handling things on the fly”: temporarily switching assets, temporarily waiting for a transfer to arrive, temporarily topping up a payment method, or realizing the charge failed at the last moment.
My view is simple: investment positions chase volatility, while everyday spending chases certainty. Leaving all your money tied up in the market waiting for a better selling point looks smart—until you get stuck on the checkout page, and then you’re effectively handing the most certain small expenses in your life over to volatility.
The purpose of AI subscriptions and gift cards isn’t to make people more impulsive with spending; it’s to get crypto assets into real-world scenarios with fewer detours. When I do my position review at night, I’ll also go ahead and split out the money I know I must spend in the next 24 hours to 7 days.
