Good to see corporate media superpowers gently encouraging users over to #nostr

Reflecting on my trip to The Gambia 🇬🇲 What a beautiful, unspoilt, wild country, with incredibly kind, free spirited people. Thanks to Angelika and Michaela from IN-US* for embracing #bitcoin, and inviting me to present & deliver a workshop with community and business leaders. There were multiple additional meetings and workshops, with an endless stream of interested parties wanting to learn more. The Gambian economy is cash based and the currency, the Dalsai, is free-floating and trending to zero relative to the dollar; and we all know where that’s going! Thanks to the team’s efforts, the event outcomes were as follows: ✅ Local core team formed. ✅ Monthly #Bitcoin meet-up established (first meeting to be held on May 1st and repeated monthly thereafter). ✅ Logo and website WIP. ✅ First hotel to accept bitcoin onboarded. ✅ First group of restaurants and bars identified. ✅ First national visitor experience operator onboarded. ✅ First taxi group onboarded. ✅ First bitcoin ATM planned for the country. More to come!

Elated to achieved a sub-3 hr marathon representing #[0] at #ManchesterMarathon today. Random cheers for “bitcoin” from the crowds helped massively. The event was brilliantly organised. More like a music festival with runs between bands! Can recommend. #BitcoinRunners #TeamSatoshi #bitcoin #FirstPostedOnNostr Before anyone asks, the dank hoodie is available from: #[6]

Update about #BitcoinGambia 🇬🇲 to follow. Has been a crazy couple of weeks. And now tomorrow, I’m running Manchester Marathon representing #[1] The product of ~4months of training, which has been time consuming (~2hours a day), but worth it for the fitness ATH and quality time spent with likeminded friends. Talking of friends, I’ve been trying to keep up with #[2] since she starter her epic 21x10km running challenge on April 1st. Isn’t she amazing! 104km in, with 6 days to go. Vest from #[3] Lightweight and fast! Can recommend 💪 #BitcoinRunners #TeamSatoshi #FirstPostedOnNostr

Long story short - I’m currently in The Gambia 🇬🇲 to deliver a #bitcoin workshop to some local community and business leaders. It’s only my second day in the country, yet it’s clear to see there is so much potential. I have a copy of “Bitcoin Banking for Communities, Lessons Learned from Bitcoin Beach” which is providing a great source of wisdom and actionable content 🙏@Bitcoinbeach & Galoy If anyone has pertinent contacts, or is interested in helping, please let me know #BitcoinGambia
