The kids were ripping this weekend!

In case you're wondering what's the definition of 'hubris'..

Good morning.

Good morning! Local surfboard shaper in Mossel Bay now accepts Bitcoin for all custom shaped boards!

Good morning!

Good morning! It's surfing time! 🌊🏄🏾‍♂️🌍🧡🌅

With support from Bitcoin Beach we helped kick-start 23 circular economy projects across the African continent throughout 2023 - 2025. I'm considering the idea of planning an extended trip in 2026, to visit as many of these projects as possible. Maybe 2 -3 weeks, visiting 10 - 15 projects, something like that. If we turned this into an organized group thing, who'd be keen to join? It's just an idea for now, nothing at all confirmed, but trying to gauge interest.

New website, 2026 ticket sales, and short (5-min) documentary from @Adopting Bitcoin Cape Town 2025, all going live early next week! Stay tuned.

Whenever you're spending sats, someone is earning sats. Think about that.

Local politicians visiting our project are introduced to Bitcoin as a medium of exchange first. With the end-goal being saving in Bitcoin as a means to personal empowerment.

Our youngest competitor from The Surfer Kids, Avethandwa (11) surfing at the final junior trials today, before district team selection. He's got a very good chance to be included in the team and will almost certainly compete at the South African Champs in Oct!

Bitcoin being borderless has to be one of its coolest features. Imagine a world where the playing field is leveled by a money that is global.

At Junior Trials today, to choose a district team for SA Champs in JBay, in Oct!

I think someone is trying to tell us something. First, our @Adopting Bitcoin Cape Town account gets suspended from X, just three days before the January 2025 event. No explanation, despite multiple inquiries. Fortunately we already had Nostr. And we kept posting updates there throughout the conference. Then, after much internal debate, the organizing team decides to start a new X account, to promote the 2026 conference to the widest audience possible... We even committed the cardinal sin of joining Facebook, Instagram and (shock, horror!!!) TikTok. To that end, we appointed a social media manager: @manlikekweks, who's from Tanzania, to get the word out as far as possible. We want new people (not yet into Bitcoin) to attend the conference. And as soon as we did.... X gets blocked in Tanzania. Not too mention, Kwek's favorite social media is Nostr. He has more followers here, than anywhere else... So, what's the moral of the story here? You tell me.

I'm gonna be in Las Vegas, if you're there, come and watch this. We're gonna talk about spending sats! (Shock! Horror!) @npub1rwh33t5x8n7czknhts5fg0v0fml8mkl7neaarksumkkf8d679qrqcz7avv @npub1f75q50fcdudzzjczjg0u0we2krq4e48f4zc07nuvgaeljrnpkvgsr7gh94 @npub1xf40ggcypu4tewxpc2phmsxgqwe8pf58jappd4skvlntkapvzmvskdzzkn

Start early. Train hard. Stay focused.

Check out @LuthandoSABTC🇿🇦 orange pilling tourists! Visitors always welcome! Because it's good for Bitcoin.

The South African government wants to regulate independent podcasts. Yeah, because that's worked so well to ensure the veracity of traditional media. I'm sure they'll do a great job, nothing to worry about!

Ordinary people only begin to think about self-custody when they own something that's worthwhile taking custody of. Before that, you can explain it all you want, they're not gonna care.
