NGL, the little glow from the BitAxe every time it finds a share is a genius idea.

Main dashboard. Just do rejected shares as % of total

BitAxers, what average % rejected shares are you experiencing?

Foundation stands with Samourai Wallet

We've been working behind the scenes with the p2prights.org team to find ways to support their efforts and the defense fund of the @SamouraiWallet team.

That culminates today in a 50M sat (~$35k) donation and fund-raising campaign.

We've created a new promo code, FREESAMOURAI, that will automatically donate $20 of the proceeds of any Passport sale using the code to the Samourai Wallet team's defense fund via p2prights.org. In addition, for this week alone we will donate $20 of every sale regardless of promo code usage to get things rolling.

Setting a precedent

The case against the Samourai Wallet team has the possibility of setting a sweeping and powerful precedent, either for freedom tech and privacy, or one that criminalizes providing privacy tools to the world.

This has far broader reach than "just" in the Bitcoin space, and as such we hope to see many companies and projects in the space come together to support the Samourai Wallet team's defense and the broader mission of the Peer-to-peer Rights Fund as we fight for the right to build and run freedom tech across the US.

About the Peer-to-peer Rights Foundation

If you haven't heard of this new foundation yet, they're a product of the Bitcoin Policy team, headed up by @zackbshapiro and @DavidZell_. They're forming a new fund to "protect innovation, privacy, and user autonomy through strategic litigation and advocacy."

Their first major project is helping to fund the defense of the @SamouraiWallet team in the U.S. v. Rodriguez & Hill case that is ongoing. We've been thoroughly impressed in our time talking with the p2prights.org team, and were glad to have an organization we could strongly support in such a volatile time in the space.

Don't need a Passport?

Don't let that stop you! Consider helping the cause in one of these three ways:

1⃣ Re-tweet this post to raise awareness

2⃣ Donate directly on p2prights.org using fiat or Bitcoin

3⃣ Advocate for the Samourai Wallet team's freedom, including using the #FreeSamourai hashtag

Back at HQ after a pretty epic week in Oslo for the Freedom Forum.

Reminder for you UK 🇬🇧 Bitcoiners, you can now but Passport directly from the guys at LNbits. No hidden HMRC taxes 👍

It does via microSD. Ive been chasing them for months to fix their QR side of things.

Sparrow is more sovereign and would be a great move.

We are a hardware company first and foremost, and these products are years in the making. So yes, we always have new things being worked on. Passport isn't going anywhere though.

Once again leaving Oslo Freedom Forum feeling incredibly motivated and honored to contribute towards a solution for real people in real need. Heard many harrowing stories that remind me just how privileged most westerners are.

Keep building people, you ARE making a difference. 🧡

He's running a business. People just need to learn to verify for themselves.

Happy to answer any questions you might have

Looking forward to sharing some beers with fellow freedom tech advocates in Oslo. Who's coming?
