Decentralize everything See you June 10th in Prague! https://myfirstbitcoin.org/educators-unconference/

Yes I think we get more by supporting the good rather than opposing the bad (with some exceptions)

this is my strongest critique the free samouri people seemed happy with the conf actually (and maybe they have to, even if they don't truly feel that). i carried around a sign and wish it was more like 2024 when everyone was wearing free ross shirts. plenty of reasons but one reason why it felt like less people cared about it this year is the people who cared the most didn't show up i do see a lot of sense in boycotting voting in a dictatorship as one of the few ways to dissent for example, and think there is some overlap with boycotting a conference...but the flip side to that is it can also make it seem like less people care about the reason that caused you to skip there's no perfect answer, but to to take agency in your own life whenever you can. that's what actually matters

Back in New York after a busy few days at I'm not just aware of the critiques against the conference; i share many of them But I've come to see this conf as i see Bitcoin itself: there is an increasingly large segment I have issue with: for example, how much trust & faith to put into politicans (zero from me). However, this is part of mass adoption. As Bitcoin grows more and more people will join the community and they will look less and less like the monetary rebels & revolutionaries that were the main demographic in the early days I still haven't fully accepted that Bitcoin is my enemies money too, but it is and will increasingly be. This conf puts up a big tent, maybe the biggest in the space. Plenty gets included in that that i dont like, but im glad it exists See you in 2027

See you at 11:50 at the Genesis stage!

This week quietly pushed an update which will fundamentally reimagine bitcoin education. Let me explain… We released 6 new programs, always open-source, but the bigger story is the redesign of our infrastructure that will massively accelerate local bitcoin education on a global scale. We converted everything to .md--now anyone can customize programs for their community using AI. I’m not just talking about languages (40+ now available) but the ability to easily transform graphics, analogies, etc. Anyone in the world can now learn Bitcoin easily AND anyone in the world can now teach Bitcoin easily. Among the new releases is an Educator’s Guide for the Bitcoin Diploma as well as an Educators Training Program (ETP) This also kicks off a new release schedule with a major release every two years with a point release every 6 months ( eg: 1.0 > 1.1 > 1.2 > 1.3 > 2.0 etc.). The next release will be in October and expect that to be even more impactful and wider ranging than this one. What we released this week is a proof of concept of our new direction of creating a global framework to massively accelerate the independent bitcoin education movement. And BEFORE October we will begin to roll out more frameworks and tools to build out that infrastructure. We have never accepted government funding for our work and we never will. Bitcoin shows us that we must separate money and state. Our aim is to also separate education and state. All of our funding comes from the community, so if you have some spare sats please consider donating Everything we do is open source and permissionless. You can start learning or teaching today. Period. However, we are also building a social layer for this emerging network, designed to be a space to find support, share best practices and create unstoppable community. Each month we have a virtual gathering (network-only) and we also host public educators unconfrences, such as the one held in Nairobi earlier this month. The next one will be June 10thin Prague Independent bitcoin education will change the world. Join us!

show me what revolution looks like
