Starting the walk

Today is hot and hazy at The Rail Mall. A gentle breeze.

While exploring Surabaya and Hong Kong last month, I found out about some very active communities in APAC, focusing on education and teaching the basics to curious beginners. Here is what’s happening in 2026: 👉Bitcoin Indonesia: many local meetups in multiple physical locations around Indonesia, aimed at a local audience. @bitcoinindo21 npub1y4qd2zhtn05gnsaaq5xfejzfk4a32638tx6gpp9g8k6e42g9d66qaxhcr3 👉Bitcoin HK: active merchant onboarding with staff-friendly Lightning POS devices. @bitcoinorghk 👉Code Orange: sessions over Discord focusing on technical topics: self custody, running a node, solo mining, vibe coding. @CodeOrangeDevs npub1gxqyeea3xspkd68mxlxsvvk3gdzdd555u504ynwpdj0ghg503mvq2gydt0 👉And also… Bitshala (India), Bitcoin Sidney, Tokyo Bitcoin Base… #bitcoinasia
