Ya man this part of the nostr protocol is so cool.. I regularly alternate between Iris & Amethyst daily just for fun 🤙

So apparently Reddit was down for a few hours yesterday. I didn’t even notice thanks to #nostr 🤣

#Bitcoin + Lightning crowdfunding is MINDBLOWING.

48 hours ago I posted a video of my trip to Guatemala's Bitcoin lake, asking for donations to help with the production & trip costs.

Over 48 donations have come in ranging from 500 sats ($0.10) to 90,000 sats ($30).

This effectively pays for 25% of the total cost of my video 🎞️🎥

No YouTube superchat taking 30%.

No Patreon taking 12%.

100% of all funds from the community going towards funding a passion project. All without even cracking 10,000 subscribers or 4,000 twitter followers.

Not only is the technology of this gamechanging, but the generosity here is something that speaks to the ethos of the #bitcoin    community.

It's lonely as f**k making these videos sometimes, but you have all made me feel the love of this movement towards a sounder monetary system.

Thank you for everything #bitcoin    community - I can't wait to make more videos showing the vibrancy of what we are creating here.

Truly awesome and humbled today.

#Bitcoin and #Nostr 🧡💜

Was walking down 5th Ave in Naples, FL tonight and there was a young man playing the violin for tips.

Asked if he accepted #Bitcoin for tips. His eyes lit up and asked “Seriously, Bitcoin!?”

I told him yeah and asked if he had a wallet. He said he didn’t but immediately took out his phone and asked how to receive some.

Downloaded #[1]​ for him and sent him 15,000 sats via lightning ⚡️ network.

The dude was instantly Orange 🍊 Pilled 💊.

Have a fun trip down the rabbit hole my friend.

If only we had a simple technology to securely store our money using 12 to 25 secret words. #Bitcoin

If only we had a simple technology to send money across the globe instantly at the speed of light. #Lightning

If only we had a simple technology to express ourselves without fear of censorship. #Nostr

If only we had a simple technology to celebrate it all and reward good ideas. #Zap

If you see strangers walking around with a grin today .. those folks probably own #Bitcoin

Orange-pilling progress report ✅

Team meeting today. My employer tells the whole company that cash funds were transferred out of you-know-which-bank, just in time. Everyone will get paychecks. Lucky.

Pulled him aside, asked if he knew anything about Bitcoin, and what he thought about it. He was interested and skeptical. (Note, very smart guy, tech background). Volatility and regulation were his main concerns.

I mentioned how volatility is an inherent quality of a young asset class, but that over the long term there are unique factors that give it a different kind of stability: 21M cap, blocks and halvings, difficulty adjustment.

Then I mentioned the unconfiscatsbility of Bitcoin, and said “if you want to diversify into multiple banks, sure makes sense, but maybe think about Bitcoin as a safer place to hold cash).

I expected major raised eyebrows at best, but he took it seriously. I’m optimistic 🤙

Oh, and my colleague who was in the same room asked me later “so how do you buy Bitcoin?”

Sent her 10K sats on #[0]​ and recommended a couple of bitcoin-only buying platforms, and then said “let’s talk soon about self custody”.

Let’s go 🧡💜🧡
