Anyone come across a list of bitcoin only companies? Wallets, rewards, infrastructure, mining, etc.
Any category is okay. Trying to see if anything like this already exists.

Oh dang you’re a step ahead! Where did you take the course? My wife and I jokingly suggested we should Vipassana in different centres around the world.

You should check out Vipassana (seeing things as they really are). Did a retreat last month and would highly recommend. It’s 10 days of meditation, no devices, no talking.

We hope to capture this essence through our new logo.

Working on Nostr articles this week so will work through it. The issue will be since it’s all based on my Nostr profile if I post the same article on highlighter or yakihonne it will be a duplicate of one another. So I’ll need to pick one.

Appreciate the thoughts, will add them in!

2024-08-28 08:23:27

The past year on the road, merchant adoption has been a priority for us. Why? They are the key to network effects for acceptance/payments.
We’ve been talking about a maturity model and finally put it on paper last night. Here is v1 based on our interactions with merchants and our bitcoin preferred juice shop in Uganda.
Would appreciate your feedback/comments on this.
We see the maturity of a merchant in three levels based on how money is used.
Level 1: SoV OR MoE (merchant onboards with either user case based on their need/pain)
Level 2: SoV & MoE
Level 3: SoV & MoE & UoA
There is maturity within each use case (ie SoV: storing in exchange vs cold storage). We’re weak on the UoA use case so if you have experience with merchants pricing in sats, would love your thoughts!
We’re hoping to continue flushing this out to create more collateral to help further merchant adoption.

Your incentive? Progressing bitcoin adoption!
We’ve been on the road for a year now and have encountered a few problems (traveling, earning sats, on-boarding users, etc). We’d like to build a proof of concept and need a technical expert to join this journey.

Meet Succesy, an artist in Living Stone Zambia. We met him at the @npub1xxc…tfly meetup yesterday.
He’s a great artist, and is unable to showcase his work since his phone was stolen a few months ago.
Anuja and I wanted to help him out so we bought him a basic smart phone today, set up @npub12vk…pugg and @npub13lj…cfhw so he can post his artistic progress with you all.
He can ship his art worldwide, so if this is of interest, do hit him up.
If you can, zap him a couple sats, so he understands the power of value for value!

My wife and I sold our home as well and set off on a #Bitcoin pilgrimage around the world in search of our next home.
Given our low time preference, renting will be a great option assuming one is okay with the inconveniences you've stated.
Best of luck good sir!

🚨 30 Day Whiteboard Challenge 🚨
30 days, 30 mins/day, one whiteboard
Day 1 (Dec 21): 📍Makerere University (Uganda)
A student stopped to ask 'What is #Bitcoin'
We explained some basics and gave him 5000 UGX to get a cut at a barber who accepts #Bitcoin
Having a local business that accepts #Bitcoin always helps the conversation especially for the question 'How can I spend this?'

📍Calgary -> Kampala
8 months ago I spoke with @BrindonMwiine for the first time. He was inspired by my whiteboard to bring it to the streets of Kampala.
Today we united our two whiteboards in front of Makerere University (Uganda's largest university)

Onboarding and simplifying the message has been on my mind a lot lately. Came up with this flywheel to set people on the right path to Bitcoin. Calling it the 4 S's but open to suggestions on better names.
Study, Save, Spend, Spread

After a decade of the corporate world my wife and I have embarked on a #Bitcoin pilgrimage around the world. We hope to learn more about yourselves, about Bitcoin and how it can help society as a whole. There are plenty of communities we wish to visit and share their stories along the way!
Starting off in Africa and will work our way east -> Asia -> South America.

📍Jabal Umm ad Dami (Jordans highest peak)
Someone in the tour group was a Bitcoiner so we hit it off. At the end of the hike his 6 year old daughter asks "why do you two only talk about Bitcoin!?" 😂

You know shit is bad when your mum sends you a video about the downfall of Canada in your native language.
https://youtu.be/rX3vYeAXY6M?si=0v9Q-PH0-fOgAyZB
Video discusses:
-Healthcare waitimes
-Reliance on USA
-Barriers for businesses
-Real estate fiasco
-Inflation for basic needs...
-Infrastructure does not match growing in population
-Minimal investment in R&D to foster innovation in Canada

📍Geneva (held board for 15 minutes)
Many silently nudged their friend towards my sign but no one said anything except for a group of guys who called it a scam. They were on bicycles so I couldn't retort.
