Super powerful 💣🔥
…and yes, super bullish on Bull Bitcoin after this ⚡️🦬

10k Looking forward to when the new member of the cbp medi network makes her first appearance on notable news!!! Big fan of downbeat price vibes when we’re at hanging around at 130k moose shekels, like it’s no big deal.

1.1k Woo hoo, wallet of Satoshi winding up in Europe, but the UK, with all its draconian, free speak limiting laws, still allows me to tip my barber with sats!!! A small win, but I’m gonna take it. Now to help my hair cutting buddy transition to self custodial lightning. 🫣

1.1k Absolutely love the full circle nature of your idea. I first listened to you because you were promoted on fountain, they paid me for my attention, I would never have discovered you with some form of attention monetisation. Can’t wait to get involved and sell my eye balls!!!!

1.1k Great to hear from Aladdin, reminding me about my btc trading cards 🃏 I have saved for an inflation adjusted all time high. Lfg $78k gang, but let’s be honest, it’s $100k (US not 🫎 sheckel) or nothing.

1.1k And now I fully understand why institutional adoption is not further along, why would any ceo or company owner ever want to open their “Bitcoin kimono” to regulators? Get paid a dividend or sell some shares, then stack. Simples.

1k Great to hear from Francis again and Bull Bitcoin’s international expansion. Loved the legacy question, what can I do now to leave a mark after I’m gone and then, how can I pass on the resources to ensure they’re able to continue along the hard path. Lambo chat can be left for others. 🫡🙌

1k Love hearing from Fran, not only her stories about Hal (loved hearing about him buying Christmas presents), but also inspired by Fran’s positive attitude, particular after her recent injury. Best way forward is to keep working, building (whether it is your stack, skills or you leg muscles) and inspiring people. Can’t wait to finish off my 21k tomorrow, and looking forward to getting my 2025 running Bitcoin shirt.

1k Great show, listened to and read Leon’ ’s work many times, but as always you help give a deeper insight Ced. Feeling it’s nearly time for a family meeting “sorry kids, you’re going to be sharing a room in the new place……. Because it’ll be a one bed flat!!! Poppa’s got sats to stack”

1k Great name and great guest. Absolutely loved the parallel he made between the cultural communism of being cancelled compared to the actual communism where dissenters were brought into the town centres to be shot. Also, if no tax is off the cards, I may be a flat tax maxi, progressive taxes were even in the communist manifesto! DugandRupe

1k I used Shakespeare to vibe code my new meetup website. It has NIIP-52 calendar events, links, and a NIP-23 blog. I am considering adding a NIP-15 merch store/support page, but haven't figured out all the details yet. I'll share it next week under a new npub.
I love the Bitcoin meetup guide on GitHub. It's giving me a lot of Great ideas.

Between @npub1qny3tkh0a… , @npub1t289s8ck5… and @npub1ndketdm2q… , I have the perfect reference when thinking about bitcoin related decisions, should I do X or Y, what would these guys say to me? I then make my decision. Including should I purchase some more bitcoin themes artwork. Thank you satoshi, thank you Francis.
