Why is most of Australia just back country?

Hey, this is Tadge. First post on nostr. Using "gossip" desktop client. Not sure if this works, but I like the idea :)

Is there any way to get #bitcoin without going through an exchange ? assuming you don't know any #btc holder .. good enough who would trust you that you would send money in exchange .. and also pay for the fees ?

I’m an enthusiast Bitcoin educator and for sometime I thought my future was in educating students about Bitcoin in schools … because children are the future.

However, as so often happens in life, things don’t always turn up as you expect them to.

So instead, I’m being regularly invited to present Bitcoin education to HNW retirees. This has been an interesting and rewarding turn of events.

And what I’ve discovered is this.

1. This audience actually have the life experience and financial backing to do something significant with the information I present them.

2. When I educate a HNW retiree, they are very often also parents and grandparents and thus the curiosity and enthusiasm I share with them for Bitcoin as an emergent, integrity based, global monetary protocol, doesn’t stop with them… I’m often effectively, network effect, Orange Pilling and entire family of 3 generations with each and every retiree.

It’s a very cool process to watch unfold and I feel completely blessed to have been pulled in this direction. 🙏

There are few things that bring me more joy than those first few sips of coffee on a chilly autumnal morning.

GM. Today, the state of humanity inspired this little thought. Hope it's not too heavy for a Sunday morning:

Humanity will never learn from its mistakes. Because in order to learn from history, you'd have to trust those who tell it. Some authority of history. But there are many who claim to be authority of history. How do you know who to trust, and who to avoid? You'll only find out by a long and painful process called, the school of life. That process involves self critique, a character trait that takes a long time to develop. And when you finally get to the point where you know, with some confidence, whose stories to trust and whise not to, you are yourself and old guy, and nobody trusts you.
