This note is inspired by nostr:npub1zvrwm4n0rk3hftwyzl8csjaulatuvwvk2c3kc8u89mssgq7qrvks5zvf63‘s recent note on Tesla/Bitcoin. It reminded me that it’s important to the future of nostr that the community discusses more than just #bitcoin. Maybe it’s just my nostr bubble…

Electric cars, electric money! ⚡️

Tesla and Bitcoin both up 6% today.

Probably nothing.

We used to give people the news they need, whether they want it or not.

Now we give people the news they want, whether they need it or not.

Think less about what your habit can do for you, and more about how this new habit will help a person or people you care about.

Bitcoin is a lifeline for the Lebanese people. 🇱🇧

In Atlanta for the week. Any bitcoiners want to grab a drink downtown after work on Monday or sometime this week? nostr:npub1nxy56ame2gfnfj6fjylzxwq7r94phvgwt037mmvwr60qsqlaseksswlnxl 🍺?

Tell me Apple Wallet and Apple Pay one day will launch 2-of-3 “it just works” #bitcoin multi-sig without telling me…

Surround yourself with relentless humans. People who plan in decades, but live in moments. Train like savages, but create like artists. Obsess in work, relax in life. People who know this is finite, and choose to play infinite games. Find people scaling mountains. Climb together.

This is Uber Flex in Lebanon — customers bid and negotiate the price with drivers before their ride (just like inDrive).

Bidding and haggling cause stress and price discrimination. With Lebanon's hyperinflation and currency devaluing over 95%, bitcoin is the solution.

Bitcoin brings transparency, decentralization, and financial freedom for all. Plus, it solves another problem in Lebanon: its impossible to use debit or credit cards due to the huge gap between official and market currency rates.

In 2019, 1 BTC = 12,508,100 LBP.

Today, 1 BTC = 403,170,926 LBP!

1 satoshi = 4 LBP

Lebanon needs bitcoin. https://nostr.build/av/82654fe0e674a09c62b943dddbb149054fa539c1b8d46db640a340358feacb0c.mov

Having the Azteco team visiting the #[1]​ Bitcoin Market was such a pleasure. We physically walked through the history of money, discussed how we need to meet customers where they’re at (the grocery story — when they’re buying eggs), and how we’re moving from spices-to-sats.

Cash App Bitcoin Market.

Sat May 20th.

12-8pm.

1100 Lincoln Rd, Miami Beach, FL.

Experience a traditional marketplace with a modern #bitcoin twist.

A peer-to-peer market.

Buy yourself a snack, add something exciting to your wardrobe, get your nails done, buy some tulips for someone special — and do it all with bitcoin.

Free bitcoin upon entry, while supply lasts. Pets welcome.

Special DJ set by Sango.
