It’s 10x harder to stack Bitcoin in countries like Brazil

Many people talk about “stacking 0.1 BTC” as if it were simple, but the reality in countries like Brazil (where i live) is completely different.

The minimum wage here is around R$1,300 net (US$240).

Even someone earning what’s considered a “good salary” of R$5,000 net (US$930) still has to pay rent, food, transportation, and much higher taxes compared to developed countries.

Saving R$1,000 per month (US$185) is already a big sacrifice. At current prices (1 BTC ≈ US$117,948 ≈ R$636,904), that’s only 0.00157 BTC per month.

To reach 0.1 BTC, it would take around 64 months (5 years and 4 months) of disciplined saving.

Meanwhile, someone in the US earning US$5,000 per month could save US$1,000 much more easily and stack the same 0.1 BTC in just 12 months.

So yes, stacking sats in weak-currency countries is literally 10x harder. Every sat here comes with pain and sacrifice.

But at the same time, it’s also 10x more necessary. For us, stacking Bitcoin isn’t just about “investing” — it’s about protecting our future from inflation and a broken financial system.

This is my personal struggle, and I’ll keep fighting against socialism while stacking sats.
