I met a few bitcoiners IRL tonight, which is rare for me. It was just delightful… It’s hard to describe just how fulfilling it is, to be a part of this.

Ever since I was a kid, I’ve wanted to participate in some kind of thing that brings humanity higher, but the problems that need solving felt impossible.

Bitcoin offers, among other things, a financial incentive to do the “right” thing across a range of contexts.

This has gradually (and sometimes suddenly) restored my sense of hope and faith in human society.

Meetups matter!

Everyone is busy but you must weigh the worth of your time. Meeting other like minded people IRL is often therapeutic.

*Especially* if you're busy, it's well worth your time to make an effort and make it a point to attend your local meetup.

I feel the exact same way. I had basically completely given up on the hopes of humanity with the direction the world had taken (not knowing at the time all the root causes and issues that i’ve come to learn through bitcoin research). Then shortly after these years of building disappointment and loss of faith in humanity, I lost my son to a rare micro-duplication disorder and it seemed any hope of a positive impact on future generations was gone. Bitcoin and Nostr have help opened my eyes to a whole new possibility of a future that i never even knew was possible (well i guess nobody did really haha, we are still discovering together!). I have a renewed vigor for life and a passion that has helped to give me direction with my life again after being in such a dark place and lost for a while…

My friend 🫂🫂🫂💜 thank you for sharing this and I’m so sorry for the loss of your son. Can’t imagine 💔❤️‍🩹

I know it’s different, but my mom passed away when I was a teenager. That experience of loss and grief, darkness and light, taught me a great deal about life, death, love, faith, the universe, and myself. The feeling of presence and connectedness to the ones we love is something I hold closely, always

I’m glad to hear you’ve found passion and purpose anew here. I think this Bitcoin/freedom/humanitarian thing gives many of us a new outlook and hope for a better world 💜
