What are your thoughts about this? Personally, I usually try to buy with stablecoins if I have some, it just feels more natural for me. I don't want to touch my BTC while the market is still bad.
I feel the same way when I make transactions with bitcoin, the feeling of not wanting to lose bitcoin and being used to treating bitcoin as an investment asset for the future makes me feel uncomfortable when the bitcoin that I have is used as a medium of exchange, I think this depends on myself and how does someone treat bitcoin, especially when the market is bad or the buying price of bitcoin is much higher than today's bitcoin price, it will be a big trauma for me even though basically bitcoin is created as a better alternative currency.
Don't be. You feel that way because you think the total amount of BTC which is paid for pizza with today's value of BTC. If you think differently where the price of BTC that day is different to this day. That time 10k BTC is worth around $40 compared to this day's BTC price so that's why the buyer didn't feel bad or disappointed. So, today if someone wants to buy pizza and they accept BTC then you won't have to pay 10k BTC just to buy pizza but rather pay BTC that is worth the pizza let's say $40 and that would be 0.0013 BTC.
I think his orientation is not fixated on the sentence number of bitcoins, it's just that maybe the OP thinks that the bitcoin he treats bitcoin is like an investment asset for the future which may have a higher price than today and make him feel bad if he loses bitcoins because of today's transactions .
