I’ve got like 150,000 Satoshis I want to give away before the end of the year. Shill me your good works.
Discussion
none here other than exploration
What kind of works you looking for?
Good ones.
Works can mean a lot of things. I just want to get an idea what you mean by it.
That’s fair. It’s hugely subjective. It’s my money. But for fairness I like freedom family faith food fun funk and other things that don’t begin with F. Just let me know what it is and what you’re doing and what the money is for and zaps are coming
I started a side hustle with my wife putting on monthly feasts. We have put bitcoin right at the heart of our business. It has been such a great platform for orange pilling. Getting people to eat great food and enjoy them selves. They see us living the bitcoin values and it makes them curious. Some good conversations have come out of it.
My wife wants to go back to England sometime because she doesn't like free speech apparently, but maybe we'll try to hit your feast If I give you money I want to eat your food. You have to let me cook a side dish though. As a Sicilian American Im not legally allowed to be in a kitchen unless I am cooking something.
Sounds like a deal. Welcome any time 🫡
I’ve got 150 satoshis to add to the giving fund ⚡️⚡️⚡️🍆
I have original artwork! 1/1

You'll get more zaps from me when I get some more of that sweet sweet Hodlebutter
That’s a deal. I’ve got 100 jars to fill!!maybe next week I’ll have them ready?!
That's awesome. It really is good shit. I hope you stack fat stacks
Thanks John I really appreciate it. Not fat enough to keep me from doordashing 😔
I built a paywalled article bypass browser extension, an adult content blocking extension, and working on a kid friendly browser with built-in parental controls. Funds would go towards a new ln node since my rsbp4 is currently hyperventilating 🫡
We are trying to keep our friends healthy and free with our Kombucha, Bitcoin and nostr.
I am making chicken and sausage gumbo for my local firehouse for this weekend's crew. None of them have ever had it.
Fantastic. Dm me to remind me. 0xchat only.
Mmmmm .. is this a fed ploy? 🤨🤔😂
Either way, it’s a fun excuse to reminisce about the highlights of 2024. Let's see...
This year was a solid one. My company’s top goalies had an incredible year—both were nominated to Team Canada for the Four Nations Faceoff, with one making the final roster. We’re confident they’ll both represent Canada at the upcoming Olympics. We've experienced them both winning the Stanley Cup. Gold at the Olympics would be the obvious next step.
My business partner and I had the honor of being invited to Korea to work with their national team goalies and rising youth players, last June. It was an unforgettable experience, and I can’t wait to go back next summer.
One of my favorite up-and-comers broke every franchise record for the Wenatchee Wild (WHL) and earned a full scholarship to a top NCAA D1 program. We’re incredibly proud of him. He’s worked relentlessly for this opportunity and truly deserves every bit of success. It’s been an honor to be part of his journey.
I’m also proud of a community goalie who, just a year ago, I would have considered soft and a complete pretender. This year, he’s undergone an incredible transformation. He’s now one of the hardest-working goalies I work with and a great leader to his younger peers. While he may never play pro hockey, I have no doubt he’ll be an exceptional person. Watching him grow into a young man has been deeply rewarding.
On the personal front, my wife and I have grown closer than ever this year. Our relationship is stronger, and we’ve both become better at understanding each other’s perspectives—her feelings and my thought process. It’s been a really meaningful evolution.
My mother moving in with us was a challenge—it wasn’t a smooth transition for either of us. But through the difficulties, we’ve grown closer, and for that, I’m grateful.
The passing of my nonna in the spring was the saddest moment of the year. However, planning her funeral and reconnecting with my family from Québec for the first time in over a decade brought about new perspectives and growth for me. While her passing was deeply sad, it reminded me of the importance of family. I’m forever grateful to her for what she gave me in life—and even in her passing.
On the professional side, I’ve been working on building a new company focused on online education for goalies. It’s been a huge undertaking but incredibly rewarding. Along the way, I’ve met some amazing, passionate people who excel at what they do. It’s been inspiring to collaborate with them.
I’ve also been writing a goalie development book that lays out the foundational theory of how I conceptualize the position. I’m thinking of sharing the first 30 draft pages on Nostr over the holidays. Interestingly, the layered approach I use to teach goaltending feels oddly similar to how Bitcoin operates.
So, that’s been my year—strengthening my relationships with my wife and family, developing the best goalies in the country and around the world, launching an online education company, writing a book, and other stuff.
Needless to say, Bitcoin and Nostr have been incredible partners in this journey. Bitcoin, for the reasons we all know. Nostr, because of the amazing people I've grown to appreciate being part of my life, even if we've never met IRL.
2024 was a good year. I look forward to 2025.
Shill your personal highlights for the year, and maybe get paid.
A positive behavior system implemented in a middle school. Students earn sats for meeting goals. Improved attendance? Here are some sats. Improved grades from a C to a B? Zap Incoming⚡️⚡️⚡️ Sats can be saved or used in the school store 🛍️
Very cool. Proof of work?
Here is an example of the points earned tracker I put together for students. Streamlining the points to zaps conversion has been a work in progress. 
Ok, you're getting somethin. I'll be dispersing tomorrow over coffee in the morning (ETC time). DM me so I remember since my post offering free money was unusually subscribed Ive got lots of people responding, but this is really cool. God bless you
Unable to zap you not sure why. Do you have a wallet connected?
Tax loss harvesting
I wish. More like these channel stress my ocd and I want to be clean.
I led a group of people in doing over a million pushups
Each or collectively and how many bitcoin were mined by the watt out put?
Collectively, and we haven’t solved that yet. Would love to mine bitcoin by working out

Thank you sir!
I would if I had it done but it is still very much WIP. Forking and porting Vue/Nuxt bitcoin-only.com backend code to Hugo and relaunching under my maintenance. Currently issues on repository remain there for months...
I don’t know what any of this means(not a developer and left curve pleb) if you can break it down I’ll give it consideration.
I'll give it a shot. WIP - work in progress, haha. Forking means copying someone's repository, - repository is kind of a library that contains all folders and files a specific project needs to function and can apply new patches onto it, no restrictions since it is now _your_ copy of such original piece of software. Porting as in migrating from Vue/Nuxt to Hugo - more on that here: https://nuxt.com/docs/getting-started/introduction and Hugo here: https://gohugo.io/
Maintenance simply means I'd be taking care of open issues and pull requests in the repository so that old resources get edited or removed accordingly. Cheers.
Note: You can see my fork with a couple commits already, here: https://github.com/rottenwheel/bitcoin-only-upstream
Sounds thankless and tedius, so you get some zaps
I tell nostr:npub1rzg96zjavgatsx5ch2vvtq4atatly5rvdwqgjp0utxw45zeznvyqfdkxve GM most days🤷🏽♂️🫡
You’re disqualified because you already have the benefit of my friendship.
Well I guess that’s f*ckin sumthing 🤔🤣
It’s known to be valuable. Apparently I’m a fed.
Oh damn…can u maybe see ur way to overlookin all those mean and hateful things I said about nostr:npub1ghcetnluhryhynhuyj8s2pazldjm27wl40nu6dfeskvpv09twcnsneygat today😳 
Could you send some sats to nostr:npub12vkcxr0luzwp8e673v29eqjhrr7p9vqq8asav85swaepclllj09sylpugg?! Any contribution to the advancement of technology and improvement of the network is welcome! I believe they have a lot of competence in using these resources for all of us.
I’ve got some bullish merch. 🤙
I'm making this Christmas extra special for really close friends of mine and their two boys. Took my friend shopping for gifts for his kids and paid for them. Feels good to do good to others. ❤️
I have Kleenex for tears I'll be donating Bitcoiners who moved to El Salvador
I use Nostr daily, I have started a new South Beach Meetup on the third Wednesday of every month, I am also on the board of a new nonprofit down here in the Miami area for Bitcoin education. And I have many goals this year to document the culture of Bitcoin like my fashion report the Bitcoin shoe report and the Bitcoin swag report.
Can't find a route for zaps.
Omg thank you! That’s the biggest app I’ve ever received. I appreciate you. That’s so nice. Thank you.

I babysat my niece so her parents could go on a date
