This is awesome nostr:npub1z5umqa38xfv94y3fpver2khw2qar2v54jetl24939j4f0yyhggdqrh5lwd congrats on the Card and the award for Rookie of the Year! Well deserved! 👏
Thank you, Chris!!
"Rule #2: A simple 'hello' can lead to a million things."
This time 4 years ago, I was writing college essays, trying to discover my path, answering questions like:
- What inspires you to act?
- Reflect on an idea that excites you.
I never could have imagined the P2P network I’d soon find that would show me the way — each node is a giant whose shoulders I’ve stood on, and anything I’ve done is only possible because of the intellectual generosity and PoW of this community.
2024 has given me more than I deserve. Thank you, nostr:npub1yjryjq2kdganuc69zme9agk0q4rjcnlxel3fwp3xm9z68phsxngsqd33a9, for naming me Rookie of the Year and wrapping up these past 4 years in the most incredible way.
My cup overflows with gratitude to walk this path with you all and many more to come!

Thank you thank you, Jeff! Most grateful for all your kind words and support!
A full-circle moment for nostr:npub1dsk00w6dny7at08t28s7f486yaw7zcfr5vmyrrmw4xss9rejpnus57yv6n! Ending our 22nd and final meeting of the year with nostr:npub1s05p3ha7en49dv8429tkk07nnfa9pcwczkf5x5qrdraqshxdje9sq6eyhe.
Jeff's model of "building the world you want to see" inspired the Club's founding, and we began this semester with a nod to his book "The Price of Tomorrow. " To end it with Jeff himself was deeply meaningful.
Thank you, Jeff, for being a north star in our Bitcoin journey, modeling how to stay grounded, act with integrity, ask better questions, foster growth & success in others, & lift up everyone around us. Your impact is immeasurable.

Last Wednesday, nostr:npub1dsk00w6dny7at08t28s7f486yaw7zcfr5vmyrrmw4xss9rejpnus57yv6n celebrated their 21st meeting with a fireside chat featuring the ever-wise nostr:npub1tq99ulym5p8k29ttlsx37zflucaeg3qlpm5ug39zheuyw0eg55vqmpkten, President & COO of Cathedra Bitcoin & Co-Founder of nostr:npub1key55ax33gkl50uqemvl4khrtqrhzm7wzpc7fhseutt5ddkcwcrqgxlt3h, led by Club member Rafaela Baldeon.
Drew shared insights that sparked curiosity, challenged assumptions, and left us all a little wiser, explaining:
- Energy isn’t just power—it’s the foundation of every forward leap.
- Timelines of development in nuclear & the Lightning network
- How to navigate VC hype cycles (watch out for the “flavor of the month”)
- Mental frameworks for unlearning assumptions
- Fragmented narratives & a broader crisis of meaning happening
…and much more (including 📚 recs)!
Ella, I'm not a student, but I'd love to hear some of your tips for bringing more younger people to the nostr:nprofile1qqswc88p8vrcpt6mrapvsrrdj3udus3v23dufee4tla29c4sj0k3zrgpz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduhslgz2hz
