Thanks to the Brisbane Bitcoin meetup for inviting me to speak at their monthly meetup.
Had a great time spreading the word about the UK Bitcoin community and our merchant onboarding strategies. 🇬🇧🇦🇺

Amazing episode. A masterclass.
Listen and then listen again.

My family and I used to go geocaching all the time. It was a fun and cheap way to entertain the kids.
The ‘official’ geocaching app started locking content behind paywalls and we drifted away from it.
For me, geocaching should always be an open network so it’s a perfect fit with Nostr.

Someone needs to make a website with a live updating chart of countries. Showing there merchant adoption numbers. Grabbing data from @nprofile…996k . Or does this already exist?
Bitcoiners love a good chart.

Still figuring out the finer details, but we’re heading to Southeast Asia and eventually El Salvador. No time limits on it. We’ll stay wherever we’re treated best and having the most fun.

One of my favourite bands is Midlake. The original singer Tim Smith released his own album late last year.
I love this track ‘Daughters Of Albion’
Great lyrics -
“I do not understand this dark and empty age”

Highly recommend.

Depends on the client I think. Primal doesn’t seem to show it but Damus does.
I use @npub1048…x3nf to post my newsletter each week and it shows like this in Damus.

There was a version that was published under the name “Anonymous”, so I think that was the first edition. I believe this is the second edition.
