Fiat currency:
Legal tender, or currency (bank notes and coins), which has value only because a government says so, and because the people using it maintain faith in it having value. Fiat money such as US dollars can be used as an exchange for goods and services.
My Dream and Vision...
Being fiat free has been a dream of mine for a long time now and I have actually been living with very little money for many years. I just haven't been able to fully pull the trigger until now and quit using fiat money once and for all...
But now much thanks to the Steem blockchain I feel empowered to go all-in on this quest and will keep you all updated on my progress here. It will of course be quite a challenge but I'm ready to put my creativity into overdrive and show that you can not only get by without any fiat but actually thrive!
Why and How?
I will have more incentive to promote and normalize the use of blockchain technology as well as gift economy. I have already started contacting company's and organisations to get them to accept Steem as payment as well as trading services with individuals for Steem.
I will pay my rent in Steem and food I will forage from dumpsters as well as straight from nature. As entertainment I will focus on what's free like being out in nature and just being with friends and of course Steemin! :D
Fiat Free Rules:
- No bank accounts.
- No use of cash.
Going back to the roots...
Lizzy and @reko chillin' in their lil room...
The best things in life are freeeee!!:D
Our local beach in Gothenburg, Sweden where I go for a dip all year round...
The water is freezing cold but what a booooooost!:D
February - To Do List:
* Pay my first rent in Steem.
* Get a new monitor as my old one just broke down.
* Find a way to buy phone credits with crypto.
* Host conference calls and live meet-ups promoting the Steem blockchain

thank you @thetruth36, followed and checking it out!^^
I love what you do @reko. Being fiat free is also my dream, I hope the future has a place for me like that.
Amazing! Indeed, simplicity is the spice of life... what a simple life you are living, filled with love and compassion. Living close to nature is a bliss. Though I stay in the capital of Nigeria, I wish to one day stay in a location filled with nature's blessings - the trees, the streams, ocean, birds and all. I wish you success in your quest @reko
thank you @ibile, yeah living in nature is such a blessing and it provides all you can ever need... hope you can realize your dream sooner rather than later!;)
Demonstrating the fiat free life,how lovely... I will be heading there myself reko, as the old monopoly money finds its end,
thank you for freedom
glad to hear.. yeah really excited and I think it will be so much fun as well!:D
Good luck living without fiat, it's a good experiment . . . I think it would be great to see lots more exchange in cryptocurrency! But at the moment I don't touch mine because it's dropped so far from the ATH . . . And there perhaps lies the problem with it at the moment.
the answer for me is cutting as much on the expenses as possible, only got rent at the moment and as I live in a communal house so it's like $300 a month...
Yea. . . I'm sure it's possible, not so easy to make a switch at the moment but it will get easier and easier thanks to pioneers like yourself.

Reko,gotta say respect what you do man. i'll tell ppl i just met the Fiat free man!:) My best to your endeavor and in times of need, you're never alone brotha. I am beginning to make funny crypto parody videos but compared to what you're doing it seems so worthless
