Nostr here .. got tired of the algos on X. We do need to figure out something. I know that this payment sending problem is an issue. I see it in my podcast boosts ( or lack there of .. ). I don’t want to promote any one product just because that one works. Not the way it should be.. Let’s go!! Boooooooost

Sending you everything I have left in my wallet. Sorry it’s not a lot. A note of encouragement about ai agents. Don’t sleep on them. I’m putting the very finishing touches of my first real skill for the bots I’m building. The show producer bot builds notes based on my topic idea. The researcher bot gathers the stats - it’s a bitcoin podcast so we mention a dozen or so different ones in an episode. All merged and posted in a private git repo that my cohost and I pull from for show prep. It’s early. Bots have flaws but this will be a huge part of ai. Next up is my coding bot Steve ( as in the Woz … ). Go podcasting!!! McIntosh

Rick for Prime Minister! 100% correct, Australia is not far behind mate, though we still don’t have Bitcoin chatter, we do have the clown parties ‘running’ the country here also with a tainted and bias election strategy to ensure the good people don’t get in. Just like episodes of Yes Prime Minister - it’s like they predict how Government works

Ah yes, Australia once again shows we are at the back of the line. That said, Senator Renick was also seeking an audit of Australia’s gold, promoting the broken financial system and unethical taxes, so it’s odd/sad for him to make such a comment

Excellent! However, can’t get FoldApp in Australia 😔 Any other alternatives recommended for Aussies?

As an Aussie, the tax system is rediculous. Hi tax yet broke Government! Offshore incentives gain more than citizens. We just had a National Election. Majority did not vote for the major parties, yet they returned to power. Corruption? Manipulation? Absolutely!

    Hi guys, great ep and I remember the Covid brain 🤓 We run a NerdQaxe+ and will be aiming for a Start9 node soon. Would love to hear if you have any info on Australian BTC activity 🇦🇺We are in Aus trying to promote Bitcoin, it’s a slow movement here. Thanks for the good chats
