nostr:npub1fpcd25q2zg09rp65fglxuhp0acws5qlphpg88un7mdcskygdvgyqfv4sld the link on your profile doesn’t work.
The link is: https://www.progressivebitcoiner.com
But your web site is: https://progressivebitcoiner.com
It doesn’t look like you have a redirect in place for the www -> non-www domain.
Thanks! Should be good now
Happy Friday Friends, you made it! 🙌
We shared yesterday our new subscription model. Well, we have some benefits ready to roll out, from an exclusive curated newsletter to bonus interview content, and you can gift subscriptions as well on supercast 🔥.
And for those who are familiar with our nostr:npub1kmwdmhuxvafg05dyap3qmy42jpwztrv9p0uvey3a8803ahlwtmnsnhxqk9 and would like to contribute via bitcoin/lightning, you can get a lifetime subscription to the newsletter as a reward option on our geyser page, so be sure to check that out as well!
We hope this will be a natural blend of valuable content for you, as well as a sustainable support method for The Progressive Bitcoiner so we can keep building and expanding our reach. Thank you to everyone who has listened, contributed, provided feedback, and come on our show. It means the world 🙏
Hello everyone! 👏
Starting today, in addition to our Geyser fund for our amazing supporters to contribute to our efforts via sats/bitcoin, for those who prefer you can now contribute USD payments via supercast on a monthly and annual basis!
Now most of you here on #nostr will probably prefer the sats/bitcoin donations which we are so thankful for. But many of you, whether its for tax reasons, new to bitcoin/lightning, etc still prefer a USD/credit card monthly or reocurring option, so we want to make that available to you as well PLUS bonus features in the coming months.
Thank you for all the support as we grow our reach, content, and impact.
T-Minus 1 min!
See you in the live chat… nostr:note1cl8wsu05qvs784f8s43y9rd9z9l7ptw5d6v8te7yekxjlyaj3zes9wg9ss

Here in the U.S. it's #LaborDay, an annual celebration of the social and economic achievements of American workers. Many workers' rights we have today had to be collectively fought for, just as better money for workers in #bitcoin must be fought for.
If only the ACLU could make the link that #bitcoin fixes this!
“In addition to the free speech and privacy implications of Mastercard’s adult content policy, we are fighting because of the harm this policy causes to sex workers. Since its implementation, Mastercard’s payment policy has forced sex workers into arduous — and often impossible — mazes of verification and regulation, requiring multiple levels of identity verification and putting needless bureaucracy in the way of legal conduct and speech. As a result, sex workers are losing income and stability…When sex workers are pushed off of digital platforms, they’re forced into more dangerous and more onerous means of survival."

Happy Friday friends! 👋

ICYMI: Bitcoin And Human Rights: A Common Ground For Activists Worldwide
"If you are a human rights activist, you need a way to receive donations and make payroll and pay people without the government being able to stop that. That's extremely important. This idea of decentralized censorship-resistant money is very important if you want to do stuff that the government doesn't want you to do" - #[0]

Join us today, 3pmET/NoonPT for a spaces conversation with Zac Guignard! This will be our last spaces while we asses other areas for weekly conversations moving forward including Nostr Nests, zap.stream, and more. Hope to see you there!
We love the #valueforvalue model of content creation and engagement. If you enjoy our episodes and don’t already, consider listening on #Fountain where you can stream sats to us for every minute you listen, or boost episodes you enjoyed!
We’re all in on #nostr. What we just posted to twitter/x
"...
We will continue to use and support the nostr protocol and spend less and less time here on twitter.
The ethos of nostr is similar to that of bitcoin: decentralized, permissionless, censorship resistant. And while social media is just one function of many that can be built on top of nostr, it's already making incredible strides through clients like nostr:npub18m76awca3y37hkvuneavuw6pjj4525fw90necxmadrvjg0sdy6qsngq955 Primal.
Traditional social media is broken (would encourage you to check out
nostr:npub1lelkh3hhxw9hdwlcpk6q9t0xt9f7yze0y0nxazvzqjmre3p98x3sthkvyz's docomunetary on this: https://youtube.com/watch?v=aA-jiiepOrE&t=629s). It is harder and harder to justify utilizing an app like twitter/X that is slowly moving towards an everything app using you, the user, to data farm and harvest personal information from everyone, while also encouraging and amplifying extreme content to fan the flames of hatred and division that have polarized so many in our world so folks may get more clicks and ad revenue. We don't wish to perpetuate this norm.
So with that, we will continue to post pod updates, episodes etc here and across most social media platforms as we want our content to be easily accessible to everyone, regardless of their journey into bitcoin or the latest in decentralized social media.
But we will continue to encourage folks to join us on nostr, setup their own nostr profile (checkout http://nostr.how or http://nostr.com for great how-to guides) and be more active there, with exclusive content and updates. The great thing is you can access all of our nostr content even if you don't have an account via several clients, including primal here: https://primal.net/p/npub1fpcd25q2zg09rp65fglxuhp0acws5qlphpg88un7mdcskygdvgyqfv4sld
Remember, via nostr YOU control your content and don't have to worry about a centralized party, person, government, or corporation interfering or censoring you. If you're a human rights activist, political protestor, in exile, under authoritarian rule, nostr is a protocol for you. If you're a content creator and worried what you're saying may be banned or shadow-banned by Elon? Nostr is for you. Nostr is for everyone.
