Vandaag schrijf ik verder aan m'n volgende blogpost over een bitcoin-item dat eens mag bekritiseerd worden.
En de laatste hand leggen aan een van de tools waaraan ik bezig was.
De vorige aflevering bracht momenteel 352 sats op. en een extra donatie elders van 1000 sats.
M'n punt is gemaakt denk ik. Toch blijf ik door gaan.
Weer een nieuwe dag, waarop iemand uit de Belgische bitcoin "community" me aanvalt uit het niets. Ik zie weer uit welke hoe het komt en kan enkel maar glimlachen... de cyclus herhaalt zich alweer.
Do you work in a bitcoin job?
Yes / No

EP157 (in Dutch).
We hebben het over Musk, Bybit, cosplay bitcoiners v4v and much more
IIn Belgium, there's actually a group hijacking the name "bitcoin maxis" to shill fake coins, pre-mined tokens and leverage schemes and the likes.
These people even have the audacity to organize a "bitcoin café" ...
If only there was someone ... calling them out. 😉
When I show a bitcoin project to people in fiatworld, I always replace the word bitcoin with *censored* . So they look at the concept itself, not the "coin stuff".
After I reveal the real purpose (some guessed it) then I get usually a big drop in enthusiasm, as they're so sick of anything to do with "cryptocurrencies".
The real poison is the constant barrage of non-bitcoin projects. Be it s-coins, scams and the like.
People are so tired of it, they don't even see the core of an issue or solved problem anymore.
that's: opportunity
In 2015 I wrote a whitepaper for a bitcoin only idea.
Now, in 2025, thanks to AI advancements, I can finally make it to work.
First prototype is working, and I'm so happy.
10 f'ing years I walked around with this idea, and now I can build it, and make it work, knowing that the concept works in real life.
Thank you Elon
I'm currently building something if a small ecosystem of tools for Bitcoin. Priorities shifting here, zs a result of many things that happened last couple of weeks.
In any case, constantly building or delivering PoW for bitcoin.
Also building a members section on the homepage so people who appreciate(d) the work can get extras.
Something a lot of programmers and product-managers forget : many "normie" people click away when a Github-like page appears. No one knows where to download, or what to download from it.
If you redirect your "download here" link to a github page (or the likes) you'll lose close to all non-tech users.
I encourage that. Even if you don't agree with everything (I doubt many people do).
I try to make people think about things, to make bitcoin better. If we're all "Fonzies" and do a thumbs up on everything, then the critique will come from outside our bubble anyway. I'd rather do it internally and have some bad words thrown at me. (not pleasant, but that's how it goes).
thank you for trying your best and taking the time for reacting.
This "self-serving failure" will now not release the tools I've created for the community in my spare time. And I'll go take a long walk, instead of recording another interview. If I'm called self-serving, then I might as well live up to it.
