Thinking of starting a bitcoin media publication side project for more technical and industry topics.

Are you a very entrepreneurial Editor interesting in running such thing?

Example Topics; New products, New services, Bitcoin Software digests, Understanding new technology releases, New Hardware developments in security/mining/etc..., Memepool analysis, Privacy technology review. Things that people who want a bit more substance want to read. Definitely a small overlap, but It will never be as broad and as consumed as Bitcoin Magazine. They are playing at a different level.

I'm thinking more of a polite, utilitarian and closeted cypherpunk vibe. Not interested in emotional response. Don't worry i can probably find a good domain. Willing to provide many resources. Maybe could be a profitable non-profit type thing. So we can fold in profit to make it bigger better.

Our industry has grown alot, so there is probably a opening for an industry publication.

This would be great. I would definitely read.

Memepool analysis? 🐸

Nothing wrong with a humor column 😄

How, and how much would this be different from, say Optech?

Very different, they do an amazing job. But it's less opinionated and more core focus than I want to be

Depends: Are you looking for someone to mainly check bias, organization, flow, grammar, typos, etc., or someone with technical expertise (ie less an editor and more an editorial writer)? I could definitely help with the former. I’m an English Maj., have written all kinds of content (mostly marketing, PR, promotional, persuasive), and edit regularly for the above and professionals (eg attorneys), and recently co-founded The Bitcoin Editors.

…😉 and I’m a Cold Card fan & user.

I might be interested, I ran my college magazine back in the day. Here’s a relevant sample about bitcoin privacy and design: https://bitcoin.design/guide/case-studies/payjoin/

Very nice!

I read all this and think to myself: at what moment would the industry attempt to “corrupt” it.

Make your media/news decentralized. Use Nostr.

Meh. Opinions are centralized. We just need more of them from different people and different publications.

More of them, from different people and different publications… sounds like decentralization. Maybe you’d use a reader app to curate them all in one place. Hum, sure, a news client wouldn’t do this. 👀

Bring in the adverts, have the protocol redistribute.

What does an "Editor" do?

What sort of time commitment do you imagine?

Yes

my toxic trait is feeling like i could totally do this despite being nowhere close to even an entrepreneurial editor-adjacent role

Do you wake up in the morning and produce/manage/getitdone or wait for someone to tell you what to do?

for a mission & a dream, one wakes up at the crack of dawn to produce, manage, & getiteffingdone ✨

am thinking how maybe the most important bit about the editor’s role is that they are philosophical & would appropriately be so. (that’s me!)

& who is capable of understanding new tech & implications of xyz new tech. (would definitely be me too!)

entrepreneurial? (heck yeah, if it must be done…!)

🧡💜

I'd like to be nostr:npub1f6ugxyxkknket3kkdgu4k0fu74vmshawermkj8d06sz6jts9t4kslazcka's assistant (reviewer) in this project

very interesting

Would Bitcoin-adjacent topics like Nostr or self-hosting technology be part of the scope for this publication?

And beyond somebody to run the publication, are you also looking for occasional writing submissions?

Absolutely and absolutely.

Awesome! I don’t have much free time, but I’d be interested in doing occasional writing about Nostr and self-hosting technology for your publication.

nostr:npub1az9xj85cmxv8e9j9y80lvqp97crsqdu2fpu3srwthd99qfu9qsgstam8y8, it might be early, but what’s the best way to get started? Can I decide on a topic for a first article and talk to you about it before starting to write, to ensure it’s within scope? Are there any guidelines/resources I should read before getting started?

Let’s go

I'd love to see this.

I hope You'll ask Shinobi on that team. 👍🏻

He is too busy writing about ordinals, but maybe we pill him off

I would love to be part of this.

It seems like an interesting project, but only if we focus on the educational aspect and not on political debates and theories.

We all know that in the coming years, humanity will start looking for alternative ways and models for every aspect, even if politicians and giants don't like it.

We should build a media brand that focuses solely on educating people about Blockchain, Bitcoin, and Lightning in a more detailed and practical way.

We should build a business directory containing all Bitcoin-related businesses, contractors, and services, listing all businesses that accept Lightning.

We should create content in a fun and interesting way, not in a nerdy or psychopathic manner.

My goal is to build a place where Blockchain enthusiasts can open the site to search for word meanings, learn concepts of Bitcoin, and find services and businesses that are on the same page.

Bitcoin world atone place.

great idea nostr:npub1az9xj85cmxv8e9j9y80lvqp97crsqdu2fpu3srwthd99qfu9qsgstam8y8

Very interested and would commit as much time as needed.

There is a giant need for this.

I also have a daily bitcoin show that could tie into this if it makes sense.

Hard print or digital?

Something between Bitcoin Magazine and 2600 - with a Whole Earth Catalog vibe? : )
