I wrote about the EPIC story of Yusef_Mahmoud1 following an interview with him and nostr:npub1md5qn5j74l7zkjzd58dqcjwkwdj4uc8legh8zyzrym4mrkzesffqj36q6s.
Yusef was a taxi driver who has supported over 20,000 innocent families in the ongoing occupation.
This is all thanks to over 1,800 Bitcoiners from around the world sending 2.6 bitcoins.
TL;DR: The bitcoin donations have become that lifeline Yusef's holding on to get people through just one more day
Thanks nostr:npub1md5qn5j74l7zkjzd58dqcjwkwdj4uc8legh8zyzrym4mrkzesffqj36q6s for pouring your soul into this project and nostr:npub1t8a7uumfmam38kal4xaakzyjccht4y5jxfs4cmlj0p768pxtwu8skh56yu, for being the only publication to publish this story.

Attention Bitcoiners and pro humanity folk
We are fundraising on twitter spaces today to raise funds via bitcoin and fiat to build a displaced persons camp for those without shelter in Gaza
Join us!
Thank you so much. Only just seen your posts. You're the best ❤️
There is a northern Irish group, a Dublin group and a limerick group but looks like none of them have events this week unfortunately. Check out the bitcoinevents.uk website to look out for more Irish events or create your own and we can list it!
No problem lets postpone for now then. Yes we could have a meet up around 5th September. Going to try to reach out to Ben Arc too. I'll be at honeybadger too so hopefully catch you there.
Any update?
And feel free to suggest speakers or speak yourself.
The only Nostr related meet up we've done is when Ray Youssef and Nick Gregory came along and we all spoke about Civkit for a p2p bitcoin market place on Nostr. A lot of us, including me, are nostr noobs but are learning. I would be up for the Nostr meet up for sure so we can discuss details.
Thanks man that makes me very happy!! You are definitely one of us and it’s been a real pleasure to have you join us 🥰
There are a shitload of amazing bitcoiners in London.
Just ask nostr:npub1md5qn5j74l7zkjzd58dqcjwkwdj4uc8legh8zyzrym4mrkzesffqj36q6s he does meetups every two weeks! Best group of people I've met.
🙏❤️
We have bitcoin meetups already set for 11th & 19th July.
Next meetup after that is 25th. Perhaps we can have a nostr focus for that one?
Yo yoooo
