Nothing to see here.

Just a group of Bitcoiners in Parliament.

Clearing up misconceptions, demoing Lightning transactions in real time, and opening up dialogue between policymakers and the Bitcoin community. ⚡🇳🇿

Carry on.

The Bitcoin Miner that made history in New Zealand.. 🇳🇿⚡️

Rob Clarkson flew it from The Bitcoin Basin in Queenstown up to Wellington.

Then got it through security.

Which went a little something like👇🏻

👮🏽‍♂️Guard - "Hey, what do you have here?"

🧙🏼‍♂️Rob - "A Bitcoin Miner.."

Pause...

👮🏽‍♂️Guard - "Oh right, erm ok good"

.

.

Then, plugged it in. ⚡️

Exciting to be a part of this moment with @bitcoinpolicynz

Yesterday we presented to a room of 20+ members of the New Zealand Coalition MPs.

A great presentation delivered by @r0bertclarkson - An expert in breaking down Bitcoin for all levels, particularly in a very limited time. The success was apparent by the amount of time the MPs stuck around afterwards to dive deeper - genuinely interested to learn more.

Rob also brought a Bitcoin miner along, it was fun to watch security scan it and ask what it was.

This must be a first?! Surely!

We spoke about how @TheBitcoinBasin is growing through transactional spending through @lightningpaynz . Empowering our local businesses and strengthening our communities.

We emphasised the importance of not letting NZ get left behind.

All MPs walked away with a copy of The Bitcoin Standard by @saifedean and a link to "What's the problem" by @satmojoe

Great questions, surprising in fact. The tide is shifting.

They can't ignore what Bitcoin is, nor its potential any longer.

#bitcoinnewzealand

Can you name one person who's orange pilled more people than @saifedean?

My boomer Mum read The Bitcoin Standard after years of me trying to talk to her about Bitcoin.

She got really angry reading it, and now shes all in for Bitcoin 🧡⚡️

My book shelf is getting full up with The @SaifHouseBooks 📚

It was incredible to meet @peteevanschefx in Vegas at the Bitcoin Conference.

Pete’s a legend in the real food and wellness space across Australasia way before it was cool.

He stood strong through a storm of mainstream criticism and out right fake news. Speaking out with courage and conviction when few would. They tried to cancel him, but it only made us respect him more.

To me, the Bitcoin and health movements are deeply connected both are about reclaiming personal responsibility, thinking critically and choosing a path to live long, healthy and sovereign lives.

He spoke at the conference on a panel called Proof of Steak: Food systems, Diet & Bitcoin.

As a mother it fills me with joy to see panels such as this. Bringing awareness to the importance of real food, how it affects everything in our lives and giving people the tools to make the right decisions for themselves and their families.

🧡 Health and Wealth 🧡

Amazing to connect with @satmojoe, an absolute legend in the Bitcoin world.

I wouldn't even be able to count how many times i've shared his video 'What's the problem' with people around my community.

For so many people in the west we feel there's a problem but have absolutely no idea what it is. Families are struggling and just don't know why.

Joe has opened our eyes by breaking it down clearly, if you haven't already seen the video definitely check it out. youtu.be/YtFOxNbmD38?si…

Looking forward to hearing him speak at #bitcoin2025 in #lasvegas tomorrow. His panel will discuss "Will Bitcoin adoption end Fiat once and for all"

Great to connect! ⚡️

It was brilliant to sit down with Hermann from @bitcoinekasi we discussed Bitcoin Circular economies around the world.

Our communities are very different and yet our vision is united.

The money is broken and Bitcoin is the answer.

It's more than the price of Bitcoin, it's the potential of what it can do for the world. A key to so many without access to a chance at prosperity.

In the western world things can often look great from the outside. People seem to be doing well and living prosperous lives. Yet under the surface so many families are struggling, businesses are overwhelmed and at some point those cracks are going to crumble it all.

It's inevitable.

No matter where you are or how things may appear from the outside we all need connection and community.

We need freedom and the chance to live peacefully and prosper.

Thanks Hermann for your insights, your advice and encouragement.

You are a pioneer and your hard work and dedication has helped so many and inspired so many more.

Wonderful to have connected The Bitcoin Basin and Bitcoin Ekasi ⚡️🧡
