Nostr Meetup @ Satlantis

Join us for an exciting evening with fellow Nostr enthusiasts! Whether you

With the success of the Accelerating Bitcoin conference and the rapid growth of the @BitcoinParaguay community, Paraguay is emerging as a leading Bitcoin hub in South America. The global Bitcoin community is beginning to recognize its tremendous potential, with many Bitcoiners relocating here from around the world. It’s only a matter of time before Bitcoin companies follow. Hard to imagine where we’ll be in 1, 5, or 10 years... 🤯

It was an honor to welcome everyone to Paraguay 🇵🇾 and I’m so glad the Accelerating Bitcoin conference was such a success! 🎉 Who would have thought, just 16 months ago when we founded @BitcoinParaguay, that we’d be here today? 🤯 Still processing…

Who is going to Accelerating Bitcoin next week? 👀 Don't forget to also come to @BitcoinParaguay's Social Night on September 16! 🔥

If you are planning to sell bitcoin for something else, think twice. Everything in this world is abundant compared to bitcoin (except for your time). Ask yourself: Would I make the same decision knowing that this bitcoin could be worth 5 or even 10 times more in 4–8 years?

Saylor’s spot on about citizenships, but residencies matter too! Most countries don’t tax globally like the U.S. Digital nomads can often go zero income-tax, and the setup costs pay off in a year with tax savings, plus you skip accounting headaches. You can find more details about the setup here:

Tax residency in Paraguay: 0% tax on international income, no minimum stay, easy to maintain. Perfect for digital nomads to optimize their taxes.

I've finally set NIP-05 to my account. It was surprisingly straightforward.

Holy sats, what a night! Our 11th Asuncion meetup at Cé La Vie was unreal. First time all in Spanish, with 150+ people, including tons of Bitcoin newbies! We onboarded 44 folks to Lightning wallets and sent them their first sats. 🤯 I’m still getting chills from the vibes! Can’t thank our team enough for pouring their hearts and souls into this. Massive love to @Nelson Cardozo, Juan P., Bruno V., @Lorena | Bitcoin, Sebastian M., Vivi C., @John James, and all the others who made it happen. You’re absolute legends! 🙌🙇‍♂️ Huge props to our sponsors: @Blink Wallet, Penguin Group, @npub1fvf0...fh76 and Trezor for having our backs. Special shoutout to Eason Jin for hosting us at Cé La Vie and to El Tejano for the killer food that fueled the party! 🙏 Wanna help us orange-pill Paraguay? Hit us up, follow our journey, or come see what we’re building IRL! You can also send some sats to donaciones@ln.bitcoinparaguay.org or you can also zap directly BitcoinParaguay. Thanks for all the love! 🧡🫶

TONIGHT! It's going to be massive. Over 150 attendees! I guess we have already earned the title of "The biggest regular Bitcoin meetup in the world"! 🚀🔥🇵🇾

There’s a huge gap between "hodlers" who view Bitcoin solely as an investment asset and bitcoiners who get that Bitcoin is money and want to spend it. There’s a flood of Bitcoin lending companies pushing you to borrow fiat against your bitcoin to spend. Yeah, it might make financial sense, but it’s not building Bitcoin economies. We need to SPEND bitcoin more! Spending it gives us all more sovereignty. If we can’t spend bitcoin directly P2P, we’re forever tied to middlemen. That’s not what Satoshi dreamed of…

And people say Asunción isn't walkable... 😁

I’m incredibly bullish on Bitcoin adoption in Paraguay. 🇵🇾 Last Saturday, our monthly meetup drew over 100 attendees. Tomorrow, the BitDevs meetup hosts ~50 participants, with 15 more on the waitlist (a technical event! 🤯). Then, this Saturday, a Bitcoin course at the local university for ~70 students. Pay attention, folks - something special is brewing here. 🚀

Asunción is currently the 4th most popular digital nomad destination in the world. 🤯

So much human capital is wasted because people aren't allowed to trade freely.

Provocative thought 💣: As someone running a business on the Bitcoin Standard and helping others accept Bitcoin payments, I deal with the challenges of Bitcoin's 4-year cycle daily. For businesses, this cycle is truly tough to navigate. In good years, you usually speculate on the upside and defer costs. But in bad years, you rush to pay costs quickly to avoid losses. Even healthy businesses with great products can fail if volatility and bad timing collide. Hedging becomes a necessity, adding another layer of complexity for often already complex businesses. For traders and speculators, Bitcoin's cycle is a blessing. But for businesses, it’s a planning nightmare. While volatility may decrease as Bitcoin matures, it’s still too significant to ignore. What can we do? Honestly, not much. Changing Bitcoin’s monetary policy at this stage is nearly impossible. Still, I can’t help but think: Would Bitcoin adoption as money improve if the monetary policy were executed more gradually? Instead of halving every 210k blocks and causing supply shocks, what if block rewards decreased gradually with each block, based on a similar mathematical formula? 🤔 I know this is controversial. Backlash welcome, but please be kind. 🙏

Paraguay can become the next Bitcoin country. It’s more likely than most people think. Of all the South American countries, it has the best conditions and highest incentives. If you're a Bitcoiner and want to be part of it, come and join us.
