Better things lie ahead.
We move forward.
For the record, I will NOT be applying for another nostr:nprofile1qqs8suecw4luyht9ekff89x4uacneapk8r5dyk0gmn6uwwurf6u9ruspzpmhxue69uhkummnw3ezumt0d5hsz8nhwden5te0dehhxarj94c82c3wwajkcmr0wfjx2u3wdejhgtcjq26ur grant in the future. Laughable.
I support my friends doing big things. 🥳 Here is one of his promotional videos for Pocket Change. Sign up!
With that said, my friend has launched his financial literacy seminars this month! 🥳
It’s called “Pocket Change”.
He’s still in the initial stages. But sign up! Reach out to me for more details.
I’ve posted about this. Read through my posts. I have no reason to lie.
So I’m not personally offended by the rejection letter. But I’m still going to address some things in due time…
Let’s also remind the world that I didn’t initially apply for a grant prior to this because I have MANY reasons that I’ll discuss later. I was fully aware of OpenSats for months. I’ve read through all the publicly posted documents on their website and viewed all the recipients of the Bitcoin Education grants. And I still had *no* desire to apply. Now why did I have no desire? I’ll address it later.
The only reason why I applied for the grant at this time was because my friend is launching a set of financial literacy seminars. I said to him I’ll be his Bitcoin guru! And decided to apply for a grant with him in mind to help spread education about Bitcoin.
As a reminder, I haven’t forgotten to address this rejection letter that I received from nostr:nprofile1qqs8suecw4luyht9ekff89x4uacneapk8r5dyk0gmn6uwwurf6u9ruspzpmhxue69uhkummnw3ezumt0d5hsz8nhwden5te0dehhxarj94c82c3wwajkcmr0wfjx2u3wdejhgtcjq26ur about the Bitcoin Education grant that I applied for. Recall, I requested $25k.
I’ll do it in due time…
I agree that education can be free. Where are those documents and don’t point me to Github? Most people don’t go to Github to get educational materials about products. 🙄
This is a good simplified explanation. In my honest humble opinion, it’s still too cumbersome. For the average person, why would they want to deal with an IOU? Recall, they say the main benefit of using Cashu is privacy. All these steps don’t seem worth it. There has to be an easier simplified way. Do people have to run their own node for this? Well good luck with that. The majority of the world don’t even use Bitcoin. People still need to learn about that. Now throw in Cashu. Who is using it like that? For the record, I’m not saying it can’t work in the future. Perhaps it’s ahead of its time. It’s just that Bitcoin doesn’t even have universal adoption. Now people and governments want to use Bitcoin for other things such as ETFs, strategic reserves, capital markets, investments, banks involvement, and other rubbish. 🙄 How does Cashu scale considering Bitcoin is the segue?
This is a valid statement… “There is a hardware cost and education to run a lightning node. “
How will it be addressed for the average user? All of this seems cumbersome.
Well played….
Perhaps part of the agenda was to dumb down humans to make it easier to roll in the robots. Maybe the theory was that Some of these humans will be too stupid to realize what’s happening to be able to push back.
It looks to be working out perfectly…
I’ve shared my sentiments about the AI agendas. With that said, I wouldn’t be surprised if they rolled out full steam ahead. People with low intelligence and low vibrational thinking are seriously going to roll over and allow it to happen.
I’ll be sitting on the sideline shaking my head and witnessing the lunacy. Sad.
It’s sad to witness so much low vibrational thinking. But I think it has a lot to do with how people consume the world around them. Most of it can be blamed on technology including TV and phones. People have *allowed* these things to make them intellectually lazy.
“Think better.”
A quote by nostr:npub1wzt7ynrxssfv8gktqhr2czezw9pv3d5yl556yk247pmjw9ucrgsqw8jn3m
I’m an educator at heart. I want everyone to earn an A. There are enough to go around. There aren’t a limited number of A’s. Everyone can seriously earn an A. Everyone can be great.
Why would I be ok with you being average and mediocre? Why would I be ok with you being an average C student when you’re capable of better?
Interesting take. Thanks for sharing.
Some people get mad at me when I challenge their thoughts. Actually, most people get mad at me. But when they understand the method behind the madness, they *all* agree that I am right. They dislike me in the moment but love me later. I don’t do it for clout. I do it because I see room for improvement and betterment.
Change is uncomfortable for some. Many don’t like my approach. It can be brash at times. Well suck it up buttercup. Man up. Woman up. I can take being disliked temporarily if it makes you better in the long run.
If I challenge your point or pushback, then I see room for growth and improvement. You can be offended or inspired. Use your free will to choose inspiration.
