Estimated read time 2 min read

A Wedding Like No Other

Who knew that tying the knot could also mean tying your financial future to the decentralized digital currency revolution? Said Nassar, an international business engineer from Lebanon, took his love for Bitcoin to the altar, quite literally!

Satoshis as Wedding Favors

Forget traditional wedding gifts; Nassar’s guests left with a little bit of Bitcoin—specifically, Satoshis, the smallest units of Bitcoin. Now, that’s one way to ensure your guests leave with something more than just cake in their stomachs! Each guest received 4,000 Satoshis, equating to roughly $0.80 at the time. Talk about a sweet deal!

Rocketing into Bitcoin Education

Nassar didn’t stop at just gifting Satoshis; he turned his wedding into an educational experience. Under each cutlery set, guests found instructions to download a Bitcoin Lightning Network wallet. This guy wasn’t just taking the plunge into matrimony; he was diving headfirst into the crypto waters with his guests!

High Success Rates

With 250 guests, a remarkable 75 people downloaded the wallets, leading to a 30% success rate in Bitcoin adoption at a wedding. Nassar’s commitment to spreading knowledge is like a shotgun wedding—a little chaotic but undeniably effective. As he aptly put it, “All of them saw it and thought about it.”

The Bigger Picture

Lebanon, facing an inflation rate over 200%, finds in Bitcoin a deflationary oasis. With more individuals like Nassar turning personal celebrations into Bitcoin advocacy events, who knows? Hyperbitcoinization might be just a wedding invitation away!
