This month, our content passed 1,000,000 views on Facebook. That matters because Facebook is where Thai people already spend their time. It reaches roughly 89% of Thai adults. At this scale, 1 million views can represent roughly 500,000 to 700,000 unique people reached. image

Today, I spoke to over 200 university students and compared a crypto exchange to an amusement park, a circus, and a buffet, flashy, loud, and full of temptation. It’s easy to get lost in the excitement if you don’t know why you’re there. Bitcoin is the signal. All else is noise.

Today, 10 new guests from Singapore, China, Malaysia, Indonesia, and Thailand all visited our Bitcoin building around the same time. Maybe it’s because Google says we’re open 7 days per week from noon to 1 PM 😂
