Bitcoin “Affinity Scam” Magazine…?

I respect many of the people who work there and the hard work they do to encourage Bitcoin adoption.

The fact is, they do a lot.

Personally, I don’t care about ordinals.

But a “Bitcoin-only company” promoting and CHARGING MONEY FOR A SERVICE centered around “Beanie-Babies-On-Bitcoin” is very discouraging.

It’s one thing to publish opinions for and against the current thing. That’s responsible journalism.

It’s a whole different ball game when you start accepting plebs’ satoshis in exchange for providing a service.

At that point, the nature of that service matters. The refrain, “it’s just what the market wants” is ultimately BS. People are easy to scam. This doesn’t mean it’s ethical to extract value from them.

For the plebs disillusioned with the fiat games Bitcoin Magazine plays there is now an alternative. For plebs by plebs. Stackchain Magazine was put together by a group of volunteers that were sick and tired of seeing how twisted the incentives have become for a magazine that claims to be the voice of Bitcoiners. Our goal is to share the stories that matter most to the everyday pleb in the Bitcoin space. To find the people sacrificing the scarce time and energy they have in this life and put their stories into ink for others to learn from and be inspired by. We don't sell ads space. We don't feature any shitcoiners, shitcoin companies or foster shitcoin or fiat maxi mentalities. This about growing a community of like minded people that are purpose driven, not fiat driven.

Out of the 210 copies printed of Edition 1 less than 100 remain. We will not reprint an edition so once they're gone it's tick tock next block. You can claim your copy at ProofofInk.com

My copy is in the mail 🫡

Thanks for the great work 🤝

🧡✊ Thank you for your support

🫂🫂 excited to read it
