I am still here! I originally got into BTC back in 2014 when I sold my longboard for bitcoin on some forum I don’t remember. I thought the tech was so cool and naturally I spent my BTC on beer and pizza (local pizza place accepted btc). I went off the grid for a bit and when I heard btc was getting more mainstream I was saddened to see it was dominated by fintech investor bros. I was not interested. I know people who cared about the tech have always been around but this has been the first time since 2014 that I have found folks who seem to be interested in the philosophy of BTC rather than just making money. It’s nice.

It’s not about the money 🫂

Agreed. I think the public eye is lost in the greed. I am trying to Zap people with wallet of Satoshi but it won’t let me do less than 1000 (I don’t have 1,000 yet). Any chance you know how I can give smaller amounts?

Sure thing. What client are you using?

On Damus, tap your profile picture (top left), then Settings, the Zaps. There you can change the default amount for your zaps.

Also, tap and hold the zap icon on any note and you’ll see a screen that let’s you select a specific amount for that note.

Absolutely. It's not about making money. It's about changing the world through a better monetary system. And the technology is cool too 🔥😎

Not only is it not about making money. It’s absolutely about not MAKING money. 😂

Are those, "folks who seem to be interested in the philosophy of BTC" in the room with us right now?
