Often, when I speak with everyday Bitcoiners — plebs, if you will — they share with me that they’re torn between carrying on with their “fiat job” And getting involved more in the Bitcoin world on a professional basis.
I usually tell them that they can start by incorporating Bitcoin into what they currently do for a living, though, I haven’t had a great example of someone doing this that I can point them to — until this morning.
The clients of Rob Shaw an osteopath in Essex (UK, just outside London) can pay for his service with British Pounds or Bitcoin via A Musqet PoS device.
First Bitcoin accepted payment @Musqet_Bitcoin POS terminal.
The device allows Bitcoin transactions and reduces the fees associated with traditional payments.

Note that the speaker does not go into detail about Bitcoin’s technology, or Austrian Economics principles.
Rob said that he has seen clients act shocked when they are given the choice to pay in bitcoin, but most just choose between the two options and make the payment.
Rob has been able to convince two clients to pay regularly in bitcoin. He also offers a point of contact for anyone who is yet to start paying this way.
Rob acts as a Bitcoin-to-Bitcoin bridge.
It was ironic that it was an organisation called Bridge 2 Bitcoin That introduced Rob to Bitcoin, a new payment method for his business.
He is subtly introducing Bitcoin to people, and giving them an option to move into Bitcoin Land.
You might also call it “orange-pillingThis is an improved way of presenting bitcoin. It legitimizes Bitcoin by offering it for payment of professional services.
Bitcoin adoption could be accelerated if professionals all over the world adopted this approach.
Consider being a link between Bitcoin and what you are already doing.
Be a Bitcoin bridge like Rob!
