That would be pretty nice. I bet as bitcoin products like this develop and it gets accepted by bigger players the rates will continue to come down.
I'm uncertain of the risks as I haven't looked into it too deep. But there are at least two (probably more) companies that offer these kind of loans already.
LEDN (Canadian company)

โจ https://github.com/MyFirstBitcoin/Bitcoin-Diploma-2025
Our mission is to open source #bitcoin education. To not just be a leader in El Salvador, but to be an inspiration for the entire world.
This starts with making our educational resources available to everyone for free, and the Bitcoin Diploma may be the best example of this idea. ๐ธ๐ป๐ฏ๐
In 2022, we started teaching this workbook to 38 public school teachers in El Salvador. Last year, it was embraced by over 50 educational projects from more than 30 countries. The Bitcoin Diploma is indirectly supporting grassroots initiatives with tools to implement in their local community.

The Diploma highlights our core values: ๐จ๐ฉ๐๐ง ๐ฌ๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ๐๐, ๐ข๐ง๐๐๐ฉ๐๐ง๐๐๐ง๐ญ, ๐ข๐ฆ๐ฉ๐๐ซ๐ญ๐ข๐๐ฅ ๐๐ง๐ ๐๐จ๐ฆ๐ฆ๐ฎ๐ง๐ข๐ญ๐ฒ-๐ฅ๐๐ ๐๐๐ฎ๐๐๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง. As a result of that, the workbook is already being used in dozens of Bitcoin communities all around the world.
Weโre always looking for synergy, and the translation of the workbook in any possible language plays a big part in that.

The #Bitcoin Diploma covers topics varying from the history of money, the emergence of fiat currencies, all the problems that todayโs government money introduced to society, and how these issues lead to solutions.
It introduces Bitcoin, the Lightning Network, how to use it in your daily life, the technical workings, and why we need Bitcoin.
๐ฏ๐ก Pure signal, radically empowering!

Truly the best book out there for anyone curious to start their journey. I recommend it all the time. The pictures and easily broken down explanations throughout help so much.

Cute music video ๐ค
I needed this in an ELI5 too. Here's how AI broke it down:
Imagine you borrow a toy from a friend (the broker) to play with, but they want to make sure you donโt break it. To feel safe, they ask you to give them some of your favorite toys to hold onto, just in case. If the borrowed toy is really expensive (like a rare collectible), they might ask for more toys to make sure theyโre covered if something bad happens.
In this case, the borrowed toy is MicroStrategy stock, and it's connected to Bitcoin (a very unpredictable and risky toy). The broker, Interactive Brokers, is now saying, "Weโre worried something might happen to this toy, so we need you to give us even more toys (money) to keep it safe."
If you donโt have enough toys to give, they might take the toy back (sell the stock) to make sure they donโt lose anything. This change happens gradually, so you have a few days to figure it out. Theyโre just being extra careful!

MiningDisrupt is March 25-27 and I'll be there.
๐ค If the panel/conference days don't overlap I might be able to do both. ๐ค
On film sets that is definitely something to be wary of. Bonus points if they complain about the sound crew while wearing it. ๐ . Fun stuff.
I feel like all the nostr projects need one pm like elsat who just sets up geysers for these dumb requests so people can just be sent there if they want to contribute but can't code. Or some other bounty program. Cuz like idgaf about gifs, but I'm not gunna stop shitting on nostr:nprofile1qqs9xtvrphl7p8qnua0gk9zusft33lqjkqqr7cwkr6g8wusu0lle8jcpp3mhxue69uhkyunz9e5k7qg4waehxw309ajkgetw9ehx7um5wghxcctwvsqs6amnwvaz7tmwdaejumr0ds2g5zx8 until they implement amber login because it's way more important for security than implementing a cool search or zap.store like nostr:nprofile1qqsqfjg4mth7uwp307nng3z2em3ep2pxnljczzezg8j7dhf58ha7ejgprpmhxue69uhhqun9d45h2mfwwpexjmtpdshxuet5qyt8wumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnswf5k6ctv9ehx2aqpr9mhxue69uhhxetwv35hgtnwdaekvmrpwfjjucm0d5klqft7 apparently keeps telling nostr:nprofile1qqsdv8emcke7k3qqaldwv956tstu40ejg663gdsaayuuujs6pknw7jspp4mhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mqprpmhxue69uhhqun9d45h2mfwwpexjmtpdshxuet5qyf8wumn8ghj7ur4wfcxcetsv9njuetnn9mexk to implement.
As a developer myself though, I find most developers are shitty at priorities, but business people are even worse.
Nostrocket by nostr:npub1mygerccwqpzyh9pvp6pv44rskv40zutkfs38t0hqhkvnwlhagp6s3psn5p seems like would be a good use for this.
That's how I was able to leave Twitter behind! Nostr only is so nice.
manually looking worked, thanks!

Here's my nostr:npub1v5ufyh4lkeslgxxcclg8f0hzazhaw7rsrhvfquxzm2fk64c72hps45n0v5 Rewind stats of 2024. I guess I better get to zapping more in 2025. ๐
It has become my daily driver for podcasts though which has @ great. ๐ค

Fountain Rewind is here โจ
In 2024, creators on Fountain embraced open distribution via RSS, open payments via Lightning and open social via Nostr.
Listeners sent a total of 2 BTC to creators this year. That's equivalent to $127,900 based on daily prices but would be worth nearly 50% more today.
You streamed 63 million sats and sent 40,000 boosts, with an average boost value of 3,380 sats (around $3.20).
Let's see who picked up the top awards in 2024...
MOST SUPPORTED SHOW: RABBIT HOLE RECAP nostr:npub10uthwp4ddc9w5adfuv69m8la4enkwma07fymuetmt93htcww6wgs55xdlq
RHR has quickly become one of the most-loved shows among Fountain listeners (affectionately known as โfreaksโ). In 2022 they were #3, in 2023 they were #2, and in 2024 they finally claimed the #1 spot. Congratulations, nostr:npub1guh5grefa7vkay4ps6udxg8lrqxg2kgr3qh9n4gduxut64nfxq0q9y6hjy and nostr:npub1qny3tkh0acurzla8x3zy4nhrjz5zd8l9sy9jys09umwng00manysew95gx.
SHOW WITH MOST SUPPORTERS: MR OBNOXIOUS nostr:npub14mcddvsjsflnhgw7vxykz0ndfqj0rq04v7cjq5nnc95ftld0pv3shcfrlx
In 2024, What Bitcoin Did came to an end to make way for Mr Obnoxious. Peter McCormack announced that nostr:npub16le69k9hwapnjfhz89wnzkvf96z8n6r34qqwgq0sglas3tgh7v4sp9ffxj would be the new custodian - much to the relief of the 800 listeners who supported the show this year.
MOST SUPPORTED EPISODE: LINUX UNPLUGGED | 545: 3,062 DAYS LATER nostr:npub1awyzkzaktxlhyg6syzst3pxy5lvp0c908yphz4ekk9rp3zcapp5qxn79n4
One of three popular shows about open-source, security and privacy from Jupiter Broadcasting to make the top 40. Makes sense once you know that listeners boost their zip code (pricey if you live in Alaska).
MOST SUPPORTED ARTIST: AINSLEY COSTELLO nostr:npub13qrrw2h4z52m7jh0spefrwtysl4psfkfv6j4j672se5hkhvtyw7qu0almy
Ainsley's music is the pop soundtrack of the next generation. Since โCherry On Top" became the first track to hit 1 million sats last year, she has inspired countless artists to follow her path, becoming the face of this new movement.
ARTIST WITH MOST SUPPORTERS: MAN LIKE KWEKS nostr:npub1fnn2h0tgm2mwnl0kar5ez25wztum2w0q0rrrf326n0ljn999znwsqf4xnx
When Kweks isn't working his 9 to 5, he's making beats from his bedroom in Tanzania. He may have earned just $25.68 from music royalties, but since first publishing his music on nostr:npub1yfg0d955c2jrj2080ew7pa4xrtj7x7s7umt28wh0zurwmxgpyj9shwv6vg heโs earned 2.3 million sats (over $2,000).
MOST SUPPORTED TRACK: ABI MUIR | STOCKHOLM
Born in Scotland, residing in Australia, Abiโs goosebump-inducing vocals and heartfelt lyrics define her songwriting. In Stockholm she explores a darker side to her music that crosses into alt-rock, topped with Muir's sultry vocals.
