I'm trying to get the contact info for the guys who ran the "Getting Started with Nostr Development" and "Nostr Market" workshops at the Thailand Bitcoin Conference last month. Can anyone help me get in touch with them? #siamstr #TBC2024

If you custody your bitcoin at [insert bank], how will [insert bank] verify you are you when you attempt to withdraw? A username and password? In a world of AI, deep fakes, and personal info data breaches, the only way to secure bitcoin is to secure private (key) material. A digitally native world might simply require that you learn private key management.

Attention Bitcoiners in Chiang Mai, Join us in two weeks to learn how our academic Bitcoin research is empowering marginalized communities, hear how we plan on introducing Nostr in the hill tribes, and discover how we’re connecting Bitcoin mining to solar-powered villages here in Northern Thailand.

Our team has officially begun a formal academic literature review, laying the groundwork for our research on economic empowerment, digital literacy, and financial security through #Bitcoin. Excited to explore how Bitcoin can drive real world solutions for disadvantaged communities!

The U.S. Supreme Court has authorized the government to sell 69,370 confiscated Bitcoin. Fun fact: the highest court of the world’s leading superpower isn’t fully aware of what Bitcoin actually is.

What you do makes a difference, and you have to decide what kind of difference you want to make. #Siamstr

Can someone please send me the pub key for Paramut jeasakul? I cannot seem to locate this young man on my Nostr. This deserves Zaps

Proof of Work

Nostr is amazing. @Alby is amazing. Bitcoiners are amazing.

Despite being a full meter (3 feet) above the road, we’re now starting to take on water.

In just two weeks, we’re kicking off an exciting introduction to Bitcoin class at the brand-new Bitcoin Learning Center in Chiang Mai! Drop us a message or comment if you’re joining, so we can make sure there’s plenty of delicious food for everyone.

Last night’s Bitcoin Meetup was fantastic! •Formal monthly meetups announced: Thai, Bitcoin 101 (English), and Advanced. •Doi Tao solar project & Lightning-powered gate coming up. •New focus: Academic research on #Bitcoin for unbanked in Thailand. #Siamstr • our new site: bitcoinchiangmai.org and so much more.

We still don’t fully understand just how powerful Bitcoin can be or the true global impact it could have. It's like a digital organism that keeps getting stronger every ten minutes, evolving with each new block added to the chain. This ongoing growth and resilience mean that its real potential is only starting to reveal itself, with endless possibilities and effects that are beyond what we can imagine right now. #Bitcoin #Siamstr
