I’d definitely show up for your talk! I’m tired of the speculations and price talk. What I really want to hear about are real-life stories of people interacting with bitcoin. Is it (and if so, how) is it solving real problems and changing peoples lives? What can we do to spread the word to those that really need it? If you have stories about mining, that’d be interesting too!
🟣🟠 Western Bitcoin conferences still orbit price charts and Western theory all around NGU.
But on the ground in the Middle East and Africa, #Bitcoin isn’t just a thesis anymore. It’s a resilience mean for survival.
This year at nostr:npub167n5w6cj2wseqtmk26zllc7n28uv9c4vw28k2kht206vnghe5a7stgzu3r #BTCPrague, I’ve got 30 minutes:
“Bitcoin Beyond NGU: Ground Truths from the Middle East & Africa.”
No hype. No speculation. Just field-tested stories. From the trenches.
As am prepping my presentation, I want YOUR questions:
What never gets asked on stage but should?
What do you want answered with real-world context, not theory?
If it’s relevant and I’ve lived it, I’ll include it.
And if you’re coming to #Prague, let me know!

Appreciate that. You nailed exactly why I said yes to this slot.
I’ll make sure to include concrete examples around both adoption and mining. And that last question (how do we spread it to those who actually need it) deserves more airtime than it ever gets.
Would be great to catch you in person and share more insights pls come say hi if you spot me.
I’ll catch you there! Looking forward!
Agreed! But I would like more than real-life anecdotal stories about a few people and like to see more evidence on adoption numbers. For instance I have several stories of individual friends in Zambia using BTC as inflation hedge or aspiring musicians recieving payments, but it does not seem common and the US dollar is still seen as the inflation hedge bet here in Zambia. I would love to see what percentage of Zambians are using it at all.
