GM Nostr!

I'm back after a bit of a self-enforced social media hiatus. It was Nostr, Twitter, everything.

I was more than a little burnt out after BTC HEL. I didn't really get a proper break after the conference, since I went straight back to my fiat job the next day. All I had energy for was keeping the lights on at nostr:nprofile1qys8wue69uhkummnw3ezu6r0d4jkuet5wahhy6mc9ehx2ap6xsurgwqpzamhxw309aex2mrp0yh8xmn0wf6zuum0vd5kzmqqyzletcdyt027ch9q6ss0fa2u6qtyt3uynatlm5fm33d0a38tmnyyswdk3zk .

I was also more than a little shaken up by Charlie Kirk's death. I won't say much more about that here, but the TLDR is I did a lot of thinking about the risks of being public and saying controversial things. I was strongly considering taking a big step back from the space.

Nope!

I'm back, and ready to get started on new things!

I got out to a couple of fantastic conferences, first BTC Balkans in Sofia, Bulgaria, then the Plan B Forum in Lugano. My Bitcoin batteries are fully recharged, even if I was pretty exhausted after a week of conferencing. Reconnecting with old friends and making new connections is what this is all about.

I especially enjoyed the Rockamoto in Lugano - I can't believe I get to do all this cool stuff!

Looking forward to next time!

As for me, it's full speed ahead with the Bitcoin Infinity Show and the Bitcoin Infinity Academy! You may have noticed that I took a step back from the Bitcoin Infinity Show - it's just Knut now, at least in front of the camera. I'm still behind the scenes doing all the editing, but I couldn't keep my schedule flexible enough to join the recordings. I miss it, and I plan to change that.

And of course, I'm involved in the planning for next year's nostr:nprofile1qyv8wumn8ghj7mrfva58gmnfdenhyetvv9ujucm0d5qs6amnwvaz7tmwdaejumr0dsqzqu4j3jh2tp5lsfj98eh3kps9v7ddhwy4tmyqsyjgj8cs6nltk9a88cnzfe - stay tuned for all the details about next year's conference, and don't hesitate to reach out if you want to speak!

Thanks everyone for making this community amazing. I'm full of gratitude, and I can't wait for what's in store ahead.
