The Stinger! 🐝

Subscribed! I'll check some videos or a bit later 😁

Yessir! And thank you! 😁

I'm from Iran. Youtube is banned here.

And our internet is so shitty I wasn't able to upload a song or video so far.

I'm in fact one of those "unbanked" people who are cut off from your normal worod you hear about in bitcoin talks.

Here are my 2 SATs worth:

1. Why is Bitcoin money and a store of value?

2. Why FIAT none of those things?

3. Surely the government will just guarantee our money?

4. How to buy BTC both on an exchange and peer to peer (this part is scary for new people)

5. How to set up a wallet and which one to

6. How and why to self custody

The power of the bitcoin mining network to utilise stranded and wasted energy.

Also, interesting to discuss the myth that inflation is 'good for the economy'. Rather a sneak tax. That saving in fiat is pointless and encourages high time preference.

Using el Salvador as a powerful example, the power of bitcoin for diaspora, sending money home to family for low or no fees. Millions saved by developing world.

Also, not being beholden to the whim of a bank in deciding what you do with your own money. Banks increasingly interfering, and blocking payments for no reason.

How the initial fear self-sovereignty instils is overwhelmed by the enormous benefits.

A through comparison between #nostr and #bitcoin

● what's the idea behind each?

● what circumstances led to their invention?

● their code and developement.

● list similarities and differences.

● their perspective and future.

Running a full Bitcoin node for security and supporting the network.

Make all students bring laptop, start running pruned bitcoin or real activity like that, then make them get a nostr account and post

"Running #bitcoin

Running #nostr"

Types of wallets - software, hardware, paper, and mobile and setting up and securing a Bitcoin wallet.

Maybe could do a small lab experiment where students write a script to brute force some type of private key. Could have them do a few different amounts of entropy that are feasible on their laptops. This would be the way to give them an idea of the size of the bitcoin private key space.

I have collected a playlist if every bitcoin song I could find (roughly 21 😁).

It's not a topic of education but it could be handy to rouse discussion. (Some of the songs have wrong or misleaded ideas so you should supervise the debates)

And it's a cool way to get students attention and add some spice to boring classes.

Instant value settlement, even across borders

Open to ANYONE

I think you should cover a bit about loto mining on a solar scale and how you can mine with 5v in the palm of your hand.

I’m about KNG Golf!

Let’s go!!!
