I need to put some black eyed peas on the stove, that looks good😊

Thinking back on 2025

Probably one of the worst years I've had

Scratch that

It was, by far, the worst year of my life

*Covid was bad but it ended up being a blessing in disguise

However, this year gave me the opportunity to practice skills that will serve me well for the rest of my time here on earth - stoicism, gratitude, and discipline

I've also been thinking about how lucky I am to do what I do every day

I'm not sure how many other Bitcoin channels are 100% value for value - you could probably count them on one hand

And it's pretty fuckin cool that I'm in that company

I still have some adsense money from YouTube but it barely covers my internet bill each month. Fuck YouTube

I believe integrity is the greatest asset one can hold in life - far better than Bitcoin

And taking the V4V route allows me to speak the truth I believe in without any outside influence

Side note: I will be doing a V4V promotional segment every morning on show featuring Bitcoin/Nostr businesses starting next week!

This is a win-win-win in my eyes. Let me explain:

WIN 1 - the Bitcoin/Nostr businesses that can promote their product or service without an upfront payment (or any payment at all)

*it will be 100% success-based

WIN 2 - the community can discover new products and services being made in a low time preference world

In addition, they will be able to grow their own network and move further away from the fiat banking system

WIN 3 - I'm able to maintain my own voice without reliance on sponsors

Win-win-win is best case Ontario

Anyways, the reason for this post.

Starting in 2026, we will be promoting BITCOIN BUSINESSES AND PRODUCTS on the 88 SATS Radio channel.

And we will be doing it 100% V4V!

Which means there is ZERO upfront payment required to promote your company or product.

You can send us whatever you feel the campaign/shout out was worth to you - 100% results based.

We are looking for Bitcoin businesses, Bitcoin products, and will even have a classifieds option for anyone looking to sell something for sats!

If you would like to be one of the first businesses promoted, simply send an email to 88sats@proton.me and we will send over the instruction form to be filled out.

Share if you'd like or tag any Bitcoin businesses you think would benefit from this!
