tbh, nostr and its clients are not stable enough when a user load posts. Sometimes posts and followers do show up. You are also not sure if your posts have reached your followers.

Announcing we are live on Geyser!

https://geyser.fund/project/bitcoineducationinhongkong

We are the Genesis Block of Hong Kong and our Mission is to build a Bitcoin school for students to learn about the history of money and monetary policy, while developing the practical skills around using Bitcoin.

Our program includes hands-on activities that allow students to build their own Bitcoin projects using LNbits and BTCPay Server, run a Bitcoin node on Umbrel, set up both Lightning and on-chain wallets, and learn how to send, receive, and verify Bitcoin transactions.

With the right tools, we envision a micro circular economy growing at our school with the intention of educating students on how to participate in the larger Bitcoin ecosystem.

We have the following initiatives for the coming year:

1. Deliver the My First Bitcoin Diploma Program to 50+ students.

2. Promote Bitcoin usage within our extra-curricular activities program.

3. Use Bitcoin for remittance payments to the Philippines using Pouch.

4. Develop a STEM-focused Bitcoin program.

5. Provide Bitcoin workshops to staff members.

Your consideration and kindness towards our project is most appreciated. Bitcoin has one of the most robust and passionate communities that continuously lifts each other up. We're grateful and look forward to working with Bitcoiners across the world. To kick this project off, I'm personally matching every donation up to the first 250,000 sats.

Thank you!

Glad to know you through a OG bitcoiner posting this nostr note in Bitcoin Association of Hong Kong(BAHK) chat.

This nostr a/c BTCHK is a meetup group for bitcoiners to socialize in HK monthly. We start to announce meetup venue on nostr starting June(previously on meetup dot com). The next meetup will be on Sept 7th(Thu). Keep in touch dude. Appreciate your effort!

Why can't bitcoiners just hodl or DAC and wait for halving?

The main reason is that halving, in theory, only doubles bitcoin price if the mass adoption stays the same(do nothing). Purely hodling can't realize bitcoin's value. Or even just DAC or buying bitcoin yourself can't make much difference comparing with half trillion total value bitcoin is right now.

Very simple mathematics:

Demand / supply + fiat depreciation = price movement

bitcoin is NEVER deflationary. There is only new supply. And the supply is halved every four years. bitcoin supply is definite. Don't think about supply(halving). Think about demand!

"I am just buying" That's not enough. Try to spend and earn bitcoin at the same time to let more people know bitcoin!¹

My experience is that the bitcoin hardcore people or hodlers or earlycomers are very reluctant to spend ANY amount of bitcoin no matter how much the mainchain fee is. They don't trust lightning and are obsessed with "4-year cycle ATH"

Respect people who think in that way. They are the only person to control their bitcoin with their own keys. But I would like to talk to and socialize with people who are willing to circulate bitcoin, e.g. storing(buying) or spending bitcoin. If a currency won't circulate, it is worth nothing coz no one is accepting it.

Sometimes feel frustrated when my bill splitting suggestion got rejected. "I don't want to spend my bitcoin... Not convenience to know people know my sending address... I don't trust Lightning... Lightning always failed..." But this won't stop me from letting people know the use cases and your human rights that bitcoin gives you. Meetup will still happen.

爆雷😵‍💫😵‍💫

Some forms of censorship are not intentional that even the platform creator, owner or engineers don't realize. For example, an algo to choose what should appear first on a specific twitter user feed. This can be a censorship technologically that no one can fully understand the impact. In my opinion, less algo means less censorship.

Truth should be repeated again and again. Why bitcoin is not PoS...

Should a user have right to not let anyone who has not seen a specific post to know the user "Like" it?
