"Bitcoin is coercion resistant" - nostr:npub1hrctsg2qwu5gsp65gvj29968z460g0th755jq92c8uaz620lewmq6qk525

Probably why I love Bitcoin so much. I don't like any feeling of control, manipulation, threats and coercion. I love to feel free 🦋

Since you're attending a conference in #Thailand, I'd be curious to know if anyone has addressed the government's ban on using #Bitcoin or cryptocurrencies for payments.

Far as I recall from online news, the authorities permit you to trade on their approved platforms, but using them for peer-to-peer transactions is verboten.

Hey hey 👋

Yes this came up during a panel about the regulatory landscape in SEA. Really interesting discussion as it's not completely dead. I love the solutions that are being created, for instance NeutronPay nostr:npub18d4ff8qrwfukdy2funzua2ayh9xplw4au2pajfcq8mntd6a5v2cq8acpd8.

I think there is still a lot of opportunity in the future for SEA countries. It'll be interesting to watch it unfold 👀

Great words

Agreed 💯
