Examples
How Bitcoin can look in Arkansas
These are patterns and examples you can copy today. Over time, real Arkansas businesses and individuals may be listed more explicitly.
-
Restaurant tip jar
A local restaurant keeps a printed QR by the register labeled “Bitcoin Tips Welcome.” -
Farmers’ market stall
A farmer uses Strike with a QR on a small sign next to the scale, letting customers pay part of their total in bitcoin. -
Music merch table
A musician puts a Bitcoin QR on their merch table and social posts, so fans can tip between shows. -
After-school tutoring
A tutor sends parents a Strike QR or link so they can donate a little extra in bitcoin if they’re able. -
Home-based micro-business
A home baker, maker, or craft seller adds a Bitcoin QR to their order sheet or Instagram bio for small tips and gifts.
Ideas
Meetups & conversations (ideas for later)
Right now, ArkansasBitcoin.org is educational. These are ideas for future in-person or private community formats you could copy or host locally:
- Bitcoin Coffee Hour: once a month at a local coffee shop — show people how to scan a QR and send $1 in sats.
- Farmer & vendor night: talk about inflation, rising costs, and how Bitcoin can be a savings tool.
- Family Bitcoin basics: small, invite-only conversations about protecting savings for the long term.
In the future, if the Lord allows, a more formal Arkansas Bitcoin structure (e.g., PMA / trust-based community) could offer deeper ways to help those without bank access get closer to Bitcoin.
