This is about more than a salary. Itโ€™s about planting a seed for the future. Our The Surfer Kids assistant coaches and Bitcoin Ekasi teaching assistants are still in high school. They are not permanent employees they are young people getting an opportunity to work part-time, earn an income, and learn valuable life skills. Their salaries are denominated in sats (satoshis). Instead of simply receiving a rand amount, their pay is calculated and paid in sats. Why do we do this? Because we want them to experience Bitcoin, not just learn about it. We want them to understand what it means to earn, save, and think long-term. If they choose to save some of the sats they earn today, what could those sats mean for them in 5 or 10 years? We donโ€™t know what the future price of Bitcoin will be. But we can give young people the opportunity to start saving today and learn the value of thinking about tomorrow. One sat at a time. One lesson at a time. One future at a time. ๐Ÿงก๐Ÿ‡ฟ๐Ÿ‡ฆ #BitcoinEkasi #Bitcoin #Sats #BitcoinEducation

#SPEDN zinyoka@blink.sv TSK Rewards: Earn, Save & Spend Bitcoin ๐Ÿงกโšก๏ธ At The Surfer Kids, children who achieve 70%+ monthly attendance earn Bitcoin rewards in sats. They can then choose to save their sats or spend them at local Bitcoin-accepting merchants, including on everyday necessities like groceries. This gives children practical experience with Bitcoin while rewarding attendance, responsibility and consistency. Most importantly, the sats can circulate within the local township economy supporting local businesses while teaching children the value of earning, saving and spending Bitcoin. This is Bitcoin circularity in action. ๐ŸŸ โšก๏ธ Earn sats. Save sats. Spend sats. Build the circular economy.

Fun day in Victoria Bay watching The Surfer Kids compete at the local Junior Trials. First of two events to select a district team, to compete at the South African Junior Champs in September. The kids surfed well, we should get a decent number of kids in the team for Jeffreys Bay!
