just got my verification on bchnostr and i have to talk about the price for a second. one dollar. one time. that's it. no monthly billing, no subscription to cancel, no wondering if it's worth renewing. just $1 and you're verified. compare that to meta verified which runs $11.99 to $14.99 every single month just to have a checkmark on facebook or instagram. that's potentially $180 a year for a badge. here it's $1. once. and it's yours. how to get it: just make sure your wallet has at least $1 worth of bch and you're good to go. the process is straightforward — no long verification forms, no waiting weeks for approval. if you've been on the fence about it, honestly just do it. for $1 there's really nothing to think about. 🌱

a few days ago i published a crowdfunding campaign called the balik-saya project — a small community initiative to bring food, essentials, and a little bit of joy to the kids of tabing dagat poblacion. there's also a bch onboarding component for their parents, which felt like a natural fit given everything this community has taught me about what bch can do for people who need it most. i'm not here to pressure anyone. i just genuinely believe in what this could do for these kids and their families, even if it starts small. one person has already backed it, and that first show of support meant more than i can say. if you've been thinking about it, now's a good time. if not, sharing the campaign link is just as helpful. whatever you're able to give — whether that's bch, a share, or just a kind word — it all counts toward something real. campaign link below 👇

Behind every note you see is a simple but powerful piece of structured data. Let me show you exactly what’s inside using a real example from BCHNostr.

i finally did it — wrote my first proper blog post here on bchnostr. it's about the six social media apps i deleted this year, one by one, and why bchnostr was the only one that survived. not because it's the prettiest or the most popular, but because it's the first platform in a long time where i stopped posting for an algorithm and started posting for actual people. i also talk about the tipping thing — and why the first time someone tipped me bch hit completely differently from a thousand likes ever did. if you've ever felt like you were performing for a system instead of connecting with people, this one's for you. full blog here 👇

i don’t usually post things like this here, and i hope you’ll bear with me. we lost my grandfather a few days ago. our family has been pulling together what we can for his funeral arrangements since then, and it’s been a really heavy few days. i’m one of the breadwinners at home, so moments like this carry a different kind of weight when you know what needs to be figured out. i’m part of this community and i genuinely love being here. i’m sorry for stepping outside the usual content, but i’m taking a small chance that someone might be moved to help, even just a little. every bit genuinely counts for our family right now. if you’re able to send a tip, i’m deeply grateful. if not, that’s completely okay. a kind word or a prayer for my lolo and our family is just as welcome. thank you for being the kind of community that makes it feel safe to be human here, even on the hard days.

Campaign Title: Balik-Saya Project — Bringing BCH & Joy to the Kids of Tabing Dagat Poblacion 🧡 Goal: $250 hey everyone! 👋 i'm chazzy, part of the BCHNostr community here in the Philippines. in our baranggay, we run a small community program called Balik-Saya — it means "bringing back joy." the goal is simple: give food and helpful essentials to the children in our community who need it most. this year, i want to bring BCH and BCHNostr into that mission. beyond the food packs, i'll be introducing parents and guardians to BCHNostr on the spot — showing them what it is, helping set up a simple wallet, and letting them experience receiving BCH firsthand. the whole event will be documented and shared on BCHNostr as proof that this network can support real community good, not just online content. how the funds will be used: majority goes directly to food and essential items for the kids a portion set aside to introduce BCH to guardians during the event [10%] admin fee for organizing, sourcing, and documenting the distribution bonus funding (if granted) goes straight into scaling the next round + reaching more families onto BCHNostr accountability: photos/video recap posted on BCHNostr after the event receipts/proof of purchase available on request this is about showing our baranggay what BCH and BCHNostr can actually do — support, not just hype. thank you for helping make this happen 🙏 #BCHNostr #BalikSayaProject #BCHforGood

okay so i finally set up bchpay.cash and i have to talk about how easy that was. no account to create. no long forms to fill out. no jumping between tabs trying to figure out what goes where. just one page, set your wallet address in settings, and you're ready to accept bch payments. that's genuinely it. what got me though was reading how it actually works under the hood. when someone pays, the bch goes straight to your wallet. not through a server, not through a third party, directly to you. you can even verify the destination address yourself on every payment screen. the whole thing is open source too, meaning anyone can check the code and confirm there are no hidden fees or tricks. and since your settings and transaction history are stored locally on your device, nothing gets sent to any server. i set this up thinking it would be complicated. it wasn't even close. if you've been putting off trying bchpay.cash because it sounds technical, don't. it really is as simple as it looks. 🌱 and since i now have this set up — if you're looking for a va, social media manager, or digital marketing specialist, whether long term, short term, or project-based, i'm open for hire and yes, i accept bch as payment. feel free to reach out. 🤝
