Awwwww, Tico. It's a really special feeling, being the progeny of such a proud professor. I learned SO MUCH in this class, my mind blew open that day when you explained how BROKEN money is. As they say, once you see it, you can't un-see it. Thanks for being the guy who dragged me across the finish line (of all that boring computer-y part 🤫) when all I wanted to talk about was MONEY and greed and lies. 😉
Great job, profe. Muy bien hecho, y gracias por hacérmelo en español, para que puedo compartirlo en el barrio, con mi familia tica, y con mis compañeros de buceo. 🇨🇷🎉💕🧡🔥

Noted!!
Got a little thing going on down here in the Bitcoin Jungle and I'd loooove to collaborate with bitcoiners of a progressive ilk.
#thatbitcoinprojectinBahía is ever-evolving and ready to be of service. I stand on a street corner and gift coffee to locals three days a week in exchange for buenas vibras and insider scoops on the goings-on of this sweet little beach town-- real estate deals, historical info, projects people are interested in creating... it's one of the best investments of my time and fiat I've ever made. Sometimes tourists pay a little money to cover the costs of the coffee and baked goods (sourced from the local bakery, down the street), but that's not really the point.
I'm trying to protect this sweetness from the wave of gentrification and deforestation that is currently crashing on the Pacific shore all up and down Costa Rica. Nothing corporate here, please. Northern Costa Rica is looking more and more like Miami Beach... but here, we're still walking or riding bikes everywhere. Sometimes horses.
My coffee is slow-pour, authentic Costa Rican style. And, as a gringa, ironically, I'm THE ONLY ONE selling it. Everyone else is using the coffeemaker. The loss of everything that matters is heartbreaking, but if that crazy gringa doesn't stand on the corner, talking about it, nobody notices. One cup at a time. 🦥 time preference. Pura vida.

@npub14f2…v7lu 🫶🏼
FINALLY!! We started the #elDiplomado course that @melisabarrantes recommended to me ages ago...
A TOTAL honor to be part of it. (Incredible, to be included as the tica that I want to be-- in Spanish.) Spanish Dana (Tía Danna) is waaay more fun. 🥹
I had NO IDEA how badly I wanted to do this course until now-- Today, I didn't feel so alone in my quest. I sat in a room with others at the same beginning level as me. We're all CRAZY EXCITED to have this opportunity and the energy is palpable. @npub148u…ty0w, our fearless leader had to talk really fast bc he didn't want to go over the 90 minutes. (I didn't mind. I was having a great time.) Nice to meet other #bitcoinbeginners.
A HUGE thank you to the people of #bitcoinbeach and #miprimerbitcoin and to the people of #ElSalvador.
Thanks for all the hard work you all put into this.. 🫶🏼
Tomorrow I'm going to start my first business.
If the #bitcoinjungle wasn't in my life... I would NEVER have done this.
Thank you very much for being the mentors that you are, the experts.
The angels of the Jungle really are angels. Thank you.

Hi Nic. My "feed" is alllllll you this morning. (Good morning, fellow normie. 🫶🏼 )
And you're cracking me up bc IT'S ALL SO DAMN (multiple layers) COMPLICATED. I'm like you, I *get* it. But I'm gonna need this to be a little more user-friendly before I can invite the family over.
Adding hubs and relays and paying for services and... what's a channel? Why do I need to watch a video or have a call with support to set this up?!
🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
I'm trying to UN-complicate myself here.
I'm just here for the freedom.
And the quality content.
But I don't wanna PAY for it.
And I'm not gonna burn my precious sats to do it. That, to me, defeats the whole purpose. Plus it's another obligation, another middleman.
#gm from the #bitcoinjungle where we have an office with in-person angels who provide support for allllll of this. For free, because wider adoption of #bitcoin makes their own lives better too.🌱

hello. normie here.
it took TWO YEARS (from $65k down and back up) for me to sort out this seed phrase sh*t. and then all the good people of the Bitcoin Jungle said to figure out NOSTR. so here I am. and I'm so grateful.
there's a lot of truth to what you're saying about the relays; however, I realized that I kinda like knowing that I'm not ACTUALLY shouting into a void --it's just not getting relayed-- it's kinda like a note to self. it feels light, like imperfections are welcome. like, I give zero f*CKS and I'm just gonna say whatever. my theory is that only people who are following me are seeing my notes, which I also really enjoy. (bug or feature?)
anyway I'm here, with my lightning wallet connected. you all had me at "they zap sats". hell yeah. sign me up for that.
f*ck Twitter. X. IG. FB. they feel so empty and are full of ads. NOSTR's way more peaceful, harmonious, interesting.
by the way, is it socially acceptable to just pop in on someone else's note and chime in? 🫣 when you arrive somewhere new, it's hard to know if everyone else already knows each other.

kinda says everyone... I heard something about "Bitcoin Lake" that has me swooning (bc Guatemala is calling my name something fierce) but it's el Salvador that has already rolled out all the big educational programs... #miprimerbitcoin and the #diplomado.
(I'd imagine when it's government-mandated, it kinda takes the fun out of a thing.)

#gm Good morning.
I wanna do a pilgrimage to Bitcoin Beach. I wanna take a bunch of my Normie friends and do an exploration of how it works (as a currency, an exchange of value) *and where it doesn't* and then do the Diplomado program and along the way, document it all to inform the community.
Think it'll stick? Wanna ask questions?
I'm obsessively trying to solve the two biggest problems I see here in the #bitcoinjungle-- but that's me. I have a lot of free time in the temporada baja.
Basically, Scuba Mamí is bored.
Need to #gtfo of #paradise for a minute and go find all the 🧆🥙🧆 in Central America.
RULE #1: Where there's falafel, they accept Bitcoin.
Should I keep talking?
HINT: it's about education
#bitcoinjungle #newbie #normiebutopentolearning
#grownostr #teachmeabout #bitcoin #education
WHY I'M OVER HERE ON NOSTR WRITING ABOUT THIS:
Today I stumbled upon a treasure.
I PayPal-ed $50 for what turns out to be a well-curated list of access to gated content about my actual dream, something which is popularly referred to as "homesteading". ¡¡SCORE!!
As I scroll through this list, I see lots of ethereal messaging, marketed to appeal to exactly me and my #eatpraylove demographic. We're the OG Gentrifiers 😭, back when it was just called "discovering" and just before the Influencers came and ruined everything.
Anyway, I'd be more than happy to share the link to the curated list if someone actually read this far.

dude. hope it ended well. 😬
another joy-ride I've enjoyed in my travels is standing in back of pickup trucks (again, reasonable depending on where you are in the world). I loved how the little old ladies of Guatemala (the ones with the baskets on their heads, fantastic posture) would climb right up there in their heels and nobody seemed to notice how impressive that was. can't imagine many 50+ year olds doing that in the US. 😂🤣

Good idea or bad idea?
I remember when my favorite college professor received a mysterious video "from me" via a FB message and downloaded it. Guess that would have been around 2006, 2007?
Oops.

Hi Derek. I'm new here and completely overwhelmed. The nice neighbors in the #bitcoinjungle brought me and I kinda like the place, would maybe like to stay. 💕
But everyone here seems super tech-savvy and I'm more... like the Harry Potter crowd. Is NOSTR both? 🪄✨💫
Got a few questions, mostly relating to relays and setting up with my (existing) lightning wallet. May I ask? Here, I assume? (I don't think there's any other NOSTR messaging option... Dunno, maybe it exists and I just haven't found it yet... seems to be the way here.) About this #relay thing. Seems to be kind of a big deal, but maybe something they designed in so that you wouldn't accidentally post all your newbie stuff to the whole wide world. Let's come back to that.
First question, what's a purple pill? I'm just a baby Bitcoiner... I'm looking forward to nerding out on your resources. Thanks!
Second question, how do I pick the right relay? I've seen many of these names out there... is it like a Sorting Hat? Will I regret if I get sorted into the wrong relay? Will it be for reasons I haven't even imagined yet?
Help! TIA.

#gm A very serious inquiry for the #nostrhive: if you want everyone to feel welcome here, what features can you add that make us feel safe here?
#earlydays #NOSTRvalues
I'm STRONGLY #anticensorship and also obvsly #antibullying --they are not mutually exclusive-- and because of that I'm recommending a #nostrfeature (think 🐷 reporting feature in Waze) that allows users (me, I'm the avatar) to #optout AND help others avoid something we don't want to see --e.g., #gross or #unhinged conversations, #violent images, anonymous #trollsofNOSTR, #shitcoiners, #bots, etc.-- I just don't wanna see it, no thanks.
My guess is that this other user feels the same about me. (If he's even real.)
Let's solve this problem proactively, please. I wanna bring the family over here and #growNOSTR and make #bitcoinbabies but traditional "blocking" users is only effective at the personal level and... well, sooooooOOo 2016. 🙄
We need a macro-level solution.
Request:
Allow users to "opt in" or "opt out" of searches flagged by other users.
For example: #revengeporn, #creepy, #anonymousbullying, an unawarranted #adhominemattack... you get the idea.
Or perhaps an just a general all-encompassing political season fave: #grossdisplayofFIATenergy. (Puke.)
Requirement(s):
(1) Allow this loser (oops, user.) to shout out into the void, if that's what he wants.
(2) Avoid reposting, updating (or otherwise amplifying) trolls, bots, or unironic ugliness.
That's why we all left Facebook, remember?
#NOSTRash #NOSTRfix
Recommended Result:
Once something has been flagged, that comment string dies (shuts down immediately, because it's gross) and ceases to be delivered as "updates" to any affected filtered inboxes.
The larger post is unaffected.
Note: a Free Speech "opt in" is an important part of the function too bc even if @npub1aly…qzxg is a disgusting troll who occasionally likes #childporn and gets oddly defensive about it-- maybe he's not, I said *if*-- he still has a right to say it. (Hopefully someone else has a good idea what to do that kind of search/ filter. Me, I'm just generally opting out of that 💩.)
Requirement:
(3) Allow each user to adjust their own filters, because some users will prefer to "opt in" while others prefer to "opt out."
Result:
A small victory for freedom in a decentralized universe, aka user controls.
Please call this functionality:
The #hotlesbiansofNOSTR Fix
(bc if you're gonna troll, you should at least be more clever) 🤣😂🤣😂🤣
Y'all need some feminine energy up in this place. Desperately.🔥Keep #NOSTR a safe place where we'd wanna be. Don't let it be a place where creepy men and bots hang out and say ugly things to us. TIA. 🕉️

Good morning from #bitcoinjungle #gm
Wow. That top 5% seems entirely reasonable as a point of entry... someone said to me the other day that "You get in at the price you deserve." and I can't get it out of my head. I'm upside down, turned all around because everything in the fiat world is "No. No. No." and I can't find any evidence of "no" over here... I dunno, #earlydays of adoption for me, but the future looks better with #Bitcoin.
Since I joined #nostr I quit doom scrolling cold turkey. It's not even appealing anymore, the energy over here is just so. much. better. #grownostr

Good morning from the Bitcoin Jungle. I'm new here on NOSTR and, trying to figure this out... How can this be true? A place on the internet where people are thoughtful and kind?
I have big dreams of building an IRL community, something that feeds us all (literally and spiritually), and I've only just recently (actually, yesterday, that's why I'm here on NOSTR now) understood that Bitcoin isn't about money. It's about a totally different kind of freedom and, well, this post resonates.
That's the kind of future I wanna live in.
How does a girl get started here?
