@Destiny stopped by a local merchant in the community and paid for a plate using Bitcoin — sent from @npub1ajlr...zx3q straight to the merchant’s @Blink Wallet, and everything was done seamlessly.

🚨 FACT: Bitcoin wasn’t the first electronic cash...
but it’s the first to go mainstream, and the only truly decentralized one.
Born from 40 years of cryptographic progress and the human struggle for freedom!


Bitcoin is everyday money ⚡️

Did a hardware upgrade on my laptop recently:
* 512GB HDD → 512 SSD
* 8GB RAM → 16GB RAM
Here’s the special part, during the RAM upgrade, I paid the Alex in sats for installation service⚡
His LN: Alextechnet@blink.sv
He's glad to trade his skills for BTC & open to more.

PoW⚡️: Bullish from yesterday’s session!
We kicked off Chapter 8 of the #Bitcoin Diploma with an introduction to the Lightning Network—covering how it works, the process of opening/closing channels, and the differences between lightning and on-chain transactions.
We also broke down Lightning wallets (custodial vs. self-custodial, open-source vs. closed-source) and explored practical use cases with tools like @Bitrefill, @BTC Map, and @BTCPay Server.
The session wrapped up with a lively Q&A packed with great questions. Huge thanks to Tobe for leading and @Scarlette_Tumelo for moderating!
We’ll be back on Monday with hands-on exercises, including how to open and use Lightning wallets together with more practical.
Can’t wait!
