Buy Bitcoin

It’s not a big commercial conference, it’s non profit and we’ll be lucky if we break even 😅

It’s focused on the locals to get to know and use Bitcoin and Nostr and for our foreign guests to get to know Suriname.

So it’s 3 days of mixed events all over the country, including an Amazon rainforest adventure, a food festival, an edm/music festival where we expect at least 1500 attendees at Utopia event center. They’ll be using Boltcards to purchase at all 21 vendors.

A ‘conference’ part at Royal Torarica where speakers speak about the basics and topics that are relevant for the locals to learn more about Nostr and Bitcoin. Where we expect 450 registered attendees.

The event is free for locals and the tickets foreign visitors buy covers expenses for their trip to the rainforest and some extra side events especially for them.

Today we had a BBQ at the education center and the vibe is chill, hopeful, there’s a lot of fun and laughter and it’s just amazing to see everyone together.

Though we didn’t get any support from the Nostr community, I hope with what you see over the next few days, you’ll understand the impact of what we’re doing here and will.

Love you guys 🫶🏽

Miracles are real, can’t wait to meet you next year my little one 🩷

Hey, nostr:npub1h0fd5xu8rfhwdkkjr78ssdhm7rdjyf97hhjqr9acwv77ux0uvf8q23kvcg you mentioned looking for an investor for your solar grid/Bitcoin mining initiative in small villages.

Dunno if this would be the right fit, but I recall it being quite interesting when I first heard about it — have you looked into Sun Exchange? I believe they were a sponsor when nostr:npub12wu7095378nwykqs0yj39t7fjsvvglay26cajjuee80vtte0vyjsf482kk started his podcast, so perhaps Mark could provide some more info, but generally my understanding is that they provide small villages with funding to build out solar infrastructure by tapping into a global network of smaller/individual investors who already understand the Bitcoin ethos.

🧡

Thanks for supporting anyway 🫂🤙🏽

It’s difficult to put into words the enormity of the task nostr:npub1h0fd5xu8rfhwdkkjr78ssdhm7rdjyf97hhjqr9acwv77ux0uvf8q23kvcg is taking on in running for President of Suriname on a pro-Bitcoin / anti-corruption platform.

We touched on some of it yesterday in my fireside chat with her at #Bitcoin Amsterdam, but the challenge is really quite enormous.

Please support her campaign in any way that you can.

Thank you for the support Frank 🙏🏽🫂

Great! I’ll keep an eye out, it used to pop up on my feed and be more frequent. Hope you’ve been well.

Aarthi from Amazon Conservation Team is there representing Su 🇸🇷

We’ve been working with them for over a year now.

Give her a hug and a purple pill for me if you bump into her.
