I know where you are! Shame that we're not there too.

In 2017 I first heard of Bitcoin from my eldest son. I saw it as a risky investment, but bought a couple of family satoshis to appease (shut up?!) said son. I didn’t make the time to look more deeply.

In 2021, after intensive reading, listening and learning (thank you pandemic - you gave me the necessary time to study - and opened my eyes to system overreach), the penny dropped.

I learnt that the current financial system is designed to bring financial misery and enslavement to the masses, and tremendous wealth to a very select few.

I learnt that Bitcoin is a potential life raft for humanity - a peer-to-peer technology that allows us to take back control of our time and energy, to escape the hamster wheel and to relearn the importance of self-responsibility.

My journey since this epiphany has been nothing short of momentous.

After ā€˜understanding’ Bitcoin, I knew that I wanted to invest my time and energy in bringing awareness of this new technology to as wide an audience as possible.

Why?

Because I want a sustainable, healthy and prosperous future for my nearest and dearest.

Because the more people who find a place on the Bitcoin life raft, the better for humanity.

Never would I have believed that at the ripe old age of 53 - after a quarter of a century spent mainly bringing up my children and supporting my husband’s career - that my life would take such a turn.

In 2022 we (a small group of female Bitcoiners) founded nostr:npub1tuxkdwkvyvfagf5gakz8xpxzkatw30xwznhwsy39yruujz8fnz7qc9ycn0 - a rapidly growing movement providing bitcoin education made (mostly) by women. Decentralized. Peer to peer.

I am part of the founding team of nostr:npub18nyr6q7m7gl2eh4j6l4tla9gk0wz7r269yj0mw5zekvzy4p3k4ksj387h4 - a German start up bringing Bitcoin hashrate (and orange hope!) to Germany and Europe.

I am part of the founding team and Board Chair of the nostr:npub1kvc5tl0x9tgnmpaksth6n0ph8qcfydqejtqxxjzeey4zz92j9qmsff3sty - with the mission to educate publicly and privately on the potentials of Bitcoin mining for Europe’s energy infrastructure.

I have spoken on numerous podcasts, in interviews and on stages - to try to build a bridge from the current flawed system to the next vastly improved system.

Initially I was hesitant to speak in public. What do I know? Why should people listen to me? I’m ’just a mum’. I don’t ā€˜get’ Bitcoin on a deeply technological level.

In the meantime I have learnt the importance of my ā€˜mother’s’ voice.

I want my children and potential grandchildren’s future to be sustainable, full of hope, optimism and possibilities.

I believe Bitcoin is the only chance we currently have to achieve this.

Bitcoin changes you and shows you what is truly important in life. (Hint: it ain’t a ā€˜career’!)

I was delighted to take part recently in a Fairtalk panel on the subject.

Be careful.

Understanding Bitcoin is life changing.

Are you ready for a bumpy ride?
