Powerful grassroots Bitcoin documentary at a small hilltribe community in Northern Thailand, only about 20 km (12 miles) from the Burmese border.

Feeling grateful 🙏

Using Bitcoin in meaningful ways.

Return soon 💪🏼

Thailand has one of the most active Bitcoin community hubs in the world.

One of the most impressive Bitcoin education tools we have ever seen was shared with us today by Thai developers who are Bitcoiners and community leaders. Still in its earliest stage before any pitch deck or business model, yet already showing rare clarity and purpose. This is what real grassroots innovation looks like.

I want to print one like this very big at BLC. But it needs to be Bitcoin only. It can’t be Bitcoin + Crypto because we are a Bitcoin focused hub.

Today (Christmas Day), The Bitcoin Learning Center had a great conversation with both Deputy Mayors at the PAO office about our major educational events planned for 2026. We are grateful for their support and encouragement as we move forward.

Imagine having the answer to your neighbor’s struggles and choosing not to even share the information that could help them make better decisions about their future. 55M ppl live in Burma.

Join us this January at the Bitcoin Learning Center for a series of insightful and thought-provoking discussions.

Fai and I had the pleasure to introduce nostr:nprofile1qqswhf7zkyg69ragul9s0udwplh0fyx5nkyhh4a3ldwwt5ls6eeearcpxfmhxue69uhkcmnzd968xtnnv96x7umgd9ekjemwv9kzucm0d5hkummnw3e8yetvv9uj75f52f8x5etnwvq35amnwvaz7tmjv4kxz7fwdehhxarjdaekjare9e3k7mg44gyxc ‘s co-founder nostr:nprofile1qqsph5pz0q4uvuqaefg7x2mrzvtssvnge29vn3zkzygsz0fxvxzw9wqpr4mhxue69uhkummnw3ez6ur4vgh8wetvd3hhyer9wghxuet5qy28wumn8ghj7mn0wd68ytn00p68ytnyv4mqjrnqpu to Chiang Mai’s Prestigious university today in Thailand.

Bitcoin education is the cornerstone of every Bitcoin venture, from miners & wallet devs to exchanges, merchants, artists, holders, users & analysts. It fuels innovation, security & growth. Today, it took another step forward at university level, strengthening our shared future! nostr:npub1awnu9vg352863e7tqlc6urlw7jgdf8vf00tmr76uuhflp4nnn68sjmnnl3

This is the way!

One year ago today we introduced Nostr to 100 children in the hill tribes that have never interacted with money before. Bitcoin Lightning was their very first interaction.

Bringing Bitcoin into the public has been a major win for exposure and awareness in our region.

Thanks Bro! Thanks for the dinner sats too. Always awesome spending time with you.

I believe this is one of the most active bitcoin hubs in the world. Chiang Mai, Thailand.

Bitcoin has empowered us for over 3 years to directly uplift marginalized communities near the Burmese border in Northern Thailand by building bathrooms, kitchens, WiFi access, water wells, dormitories, funding scholarships, teaching English and delivering real basic infrastructure that improves lives.

Ready for battle! 💪🏼

I did not know where the road would lead eight years ago, only that something about Bitcoin felt honest and different.

We are bringing Bitcoin further and further into the country side In Thailand.

Bitcoin is creating common ground across religions through our sport events by giving people a shared purpose that rises above belief systems.

Thousands more, both offline and online, will be exposed to the Bitcoin movement in Thailand this January ⛰️

Our latest Bitcoin Running event sold out all 500 tickets in 12 days 💪🏼

The Bitcoin Trail Run sold out faster than ever! (12 days) We know many of the Thai (96% of registrations) didn’t get a chance to register, especially since most Thai get paid the last day of the month. To give everyone a fair chance, we’re reopening registration back up until noon on December 2nd. 💪🏼

Bitcoin education is not a lesson we give, it is a life we live. If we want others to listen, we must first let them see. The way we walk, the choices we make, these become our teaching. Only by being the example do we give others a reason to follow.

Today in Northern Thailand, Bitcoin made its way into another academic institution, bringing Bitcoin education to students. It’s a real privilege to have Stefan, host of the longest-running Bitcoin meetup in SE Asia, speak so eloquently about Bitcoin to new students. Great Job Neo first Bitcoin talk outside of The Bitcoin Learning Center.
