Donations like Paystand’s are what help make that mission possible. They are, quite simply, how we keep going and expanding.<br/><br/>Because of this support:<br/>- Portuguese people of every age can keep joining our workshops, from their first questions to taking real responsibility for their own scarce savings.
- Our monthly meetups stay open, giving locals and newcomers a place to learn together and a community to belong to.
- The 160+ local businesses that accept Bitcoin. We provide them with educational flyers, guides in Portuguese, and in-person support whenever they need it.<br/><br/>These are real people benefiting: a retiree asking her first question, a café owner taking his first Lightning payment, a room of neighbours who didn’t know each other a year ago. That is what this donation keeps alive.<br/><br/>To the Paystand team: thank you for believing in this work. <br/><br/>To any organisation that would like to stand with us, we’d be glad to talk: info@freemadeira.org<br/> <img src="https://blossom.primal.net/0e21e66927529d30490564648d63ba685ca7f289d3ed36e98cd02c70604c5026.png"> 2026-10-21T13:59:12Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsx3nyd3cp2u3889tjs59u0zw9uxs7amfjy8xqahx6zgcl0zkajf8czyr9dqrzg4rrgn5ed03mshypzzyjddf5th3436vwzqwdgf4dtjr8hk4fsexd Empanadas in Funchal, paid in Bitcoin. 🥟
