📢 On Feb 18, 2023, a new world record for P2P #bitcoin txs was established using the #LightningNetwork⚡️. The Praia Bitcoin experiment, a Brazilian nonprofit social project, was able to perform 71 P2P bitcoin transactions in just 3 minutes and 33 seconds.
The Praia Bitcoin team plans to try a new attempt to break their own record later this year, but this time with the Guinness Book of World Records team in attendance, in order to make it an official record.

Yes. He went silent on his own will before a deadly disease took him. Those early bitcoins will never move.
Nostr the ostrich, so regal and rare
Purple plumes flow with a graceful flare
With a social heart, he loves to mingle
Amongst his friends, he'll happily jingle
He runs and dances with joyous glee
In wide open fields, he feels so free
No fences or cages can hold him down
His spirit soars, wearing a royal crown
Nostr the ostrich, a sight to behold
In a sea of feathers, he stands so bold
His purple hue, a symbol of pride
With his social nature, he'll never hide
Eventually unavailable indeed. Unless we get a black swan.
The efficiencies gained by recent AI advancements may save us from a global recession. That’s a good thing btw. 😇

🎸 Everything’s gonna be alright - no fiat, no cry
Verse 1:
Fiat money, it causes tears,
Printing more, for many years,
Inflation rising, value falling,
We need a change, it's now or never.
Chorus:
Sayin', "No fiat, no cry"
Sayin', "No, bitcoin's the way to survive"
We'll find a way, to make it alright
Sayin', "No fiat, no cry"
Verse 2:
#Bitcoin's decentralized,
No one controls, it's not a phase,
Blockchain tech, it's the key,
To end the tyranny of the powers that be.
Chorus:
Sayin', "No fiat, no cry"
Sayin', "No, bitcoin's the way to survive"
We'll find a way, to make it alright
Sayin', "No fiat, no cry"
Bridge:
The bankers, they want us to stay,
But we won't be fooled, no way,
The future's bright, it's clear to see,
A world with bitcoin, we'll all be free.
Chorus:
Sayin', "No fiat, no cry"
Sayin', "No, bitcoin's the way to survive"
We'll find a way, to make it alright
Sayin', "No fiat, no cry"
Outro:
So let's unite, and take a stand,
Against the system, that's out of hand,
We'll use bitcoin, as our guide,
And leave fiat money, far behind.

ChatGPT3 explaining #Bitcoin in the language of the #HarryPotter universe:
In the wizarding world of finance, there exists a curious new currency called Bitcoin. Unlike the gold coins of Gringotts or the paper notes of the Ministry, Bitcoin is made up of digital tokens that are stored in a mysterious ledger called the blockchain. These tokens are created through a magical process known as mining, where powerful computers solve complex equations to verify transactions and add new coins to the network. Though some may doubt its reliability and value, for those who have embraced this new form of wizarding currency, it offers the tantalizing prospect of borderless commerce and financial independence.
