Why are building circular #bitcoin economies important?
I'm onboarding some activists to Bitcoin, the most common question is, "how I spend this Bitcoin for real money". For many people scam fiat is "real money". Everyday people need to be able to spend their Bitcoin for it to be useful to them. We have to push more merchant adoption for bitcoin to be truly seen as "real money. 
What is your favorite mobile #bitcoin wallet and why? What wallets am I missing that I should test out? 
Was sad to leave Tokyo and everyone at @nostrasia. Just hit country #30 on my travels! Doing a 7 hour layover in Finland before I arrive in Vilnius, will enjoy the freezing cold weather, nothing being open at 4AM, and getting the capital city to myself 🤣
Great to be at the #BTCPay day in Tokyo! Bullish on freedom tech, bullish on #bitcoin! 
A short excerpt from Alex @gladstein's talk "The Currency Caste System".
The TLDR: 150+ fiat currencies allows for massive exploitation via endless wage devaluation. Billions get squeezed
#Bitcoin threatens to obsolete this system with one neutral, open, global currency

A jury has found Sam Bankman-Fried guilty of all seven criminal counts against him.
When @jack asked @Edward Snowden about ways the public can help bring him home, Snowden wasn't optimistic about his chances but used the opportunity to speak about the importance of #freeassange.
@Edward Snowden sending you a hug from Tokyo!
@Edward Snowden just mentioned that most Nostr users are using custodial Lightning wallets to receive zaps. Users don't want to run their own server to receive offline donations. We need better non custodial Lightning wallets. Looking forward to a world where I can visit a conference in the global south and see everyone using a self custodial wallet! 
The tuna at the @nostrasia afterparty is insanely delicious
Pleasure to speak at @nostrasia about human rights, the importance of free speech, and why HRF is supporting Nostr! 
Japanese stranger bought me a drink, @Run with Bitcoin onboarded him to #bitcoin so I could reimburse him. Happy Halloween!
