One year ago today, I became CEO of Bitcoin Policy UK.

Since then, our small team of volunteers has achieved what most well funded organisations struggle to do, in one of the toughest environments for UK businesses.

Individuals and companies are leaving the country at a record pace, and the policy space is dominated by pay to play dynamics and crypto lobbying money.

Despite that, we have delivered. What we have accomplished together:

- Helped secure Bitcoin’s recognition as property in UK law.

- Responded to government consultations, submitted detailed policy papers, and held constructive conversations with MPs, Lords, regulators, and civil-service teams.

- Launched our new website

- Distributed our 2025 Manifesto to all 650 MPs and expanded our research across energy, tax, financial inclusion, and infrastructure.

- Hosted events on Human Rights, Bitcoin in Business, and Bitcoin for Institutions.

- Had a presence and a main hall stall at the 2025 Labour Party Conference, opening new Bitcoin conversations.

- Partnered with 11 organisations and hosted multiple BPUK events that connected the bitcoin industry with policymakers, energy experts, and regulators.

- Appeared in multiple podcasts, interviews, and media articles

-Set up mining proof of concepts

-Launch our 'On the Record' podcast.

- Spoke at industry events around the world.

- Designed and delivered the ‘Contact My MP’ App, helping supporters reach their representatives directly and raising the bar for political engagement in the Bitcoin space.

All of this has been achieved by a team of outstanding volunteers with no full time staff, very modest funding, and no compromise to our values. We have been pushing uphill in a system where influence is usually bought.

We have moved the dial and proven that the UK does have a place in Bitcoin’s future, provided we continue to fight for it.

Year one was foundations.

Year two is where we build strength and momentum.

Thank you to everyone who has supported us, shared our work, and contributed time, expertise, or energy. BPUK exists because the community wants it to.

Here’s to the next chapter.

A special thanks to my amazing team: Freddie New Dr Cristina Llamas-Rey Russell Rukin Nick Bowick Jeremy Cline Juniper Jason Jason Sami Shams and others who prefer to stay behind the scenes.

Amazing achievements so far! Keep up the great work. We in the UK truly appreciate it. 🙏🏼

You can just chop wood! #woodstr

I think this site is pretty good: https://www.w3schools.com/

I would start at the top left of the tool bar and explore the first three: HTML, CSS, JavaScript. They will get you the farthest. If you know those three, you can write about any NOSTR application you want.

Thank you so much!

No, but want to learn…. Knowing where to start has always been the problem.

Another great post from nostr:npub10guh3g63r7qqnsu3364x8jusgqwg6gwh4f5ed8v0nlfv947puy9shcplk3

What does Bitcoin mining do besides mining?

"Literally, boil the oceans!" 🤪

A panel discussion @bitcoinatlantis with Kent Halliburton, Jelmer ten Wolde, Lauri Pispa, Willem von Royen, and Bert deGroot. With the amazing Troy Cross!

"Bitcoin is an entirely new kind of economic operating system. A planetary economic operating system with an inbuilt hyper-connectivity that connects the entire human race on a single open and neutral monetary network. That uses money, that cannot be corrupted to spy on you, that cannot be corrupted to steal from you, and that cannot be corrupted to fund Wars. Bitcoin is Kardashev type I money!" - Ioni Appelberg, Bitcoin #Atlantis 2024

Amazing!

New to nostr and note an x power user either. Wondered if there was a way yo generate a post on Nostr and automate the same post to a X?

Personally love Nostr and the community here, but need to increase reach for our website bitlryics.co
