#SPEDN Bitcoin for a charging extension. Merchant paycode: baze10eletrical@blink.sv Find merchant on BTCmap: Teaching the community how to spend is equally teaching them how to save sats because once they see how easy it is to use Bitcoin, it helps them plan on saving for the future with it. Baze 10 operates a fleet of businesses in the circular economy, from a Barbershop to a gas refilling station and he is slowly embracing Bitcoin payments. Living on a Bitcoin standard is no longer a dream, it's slowly but steady unfolding before our eyes. Keep the sats flowing peer-to-peer. ⚡

EcoBitz recycling team is on the move. Last Saturday we held a coordinated community clean-up with support from the neighbourhood Mitaboni Visionaries and powered by Bitcoin. We covered just a few walk ways where plastic papers and discarded glass bottles had taken over. I could notice the local community taking interest in the exercise, some came to the Bitcoin hub, got information about the whole initiative, some asked what Bitcoin was but the smart ones asked what they could build with it. The initiative is about showing up, cleaning up the community, getting rewarded with sats, learning how to send and receive Bitcoin, spending the sats peer-to-peer to merchants in the circular economy and saving their value in self-custody. This is a real-time reminder that change doesn't happen overnight, it builds slowly and gradually, until one day the results catch up with the efforts being done of building on sound money. #pow⚡

Bitcoin Nairobi Conference just concluded last Friday in @npub1djkg...9fhz where Bitcoiners walked through the Bitcoin valley, supporting merchants accepting Bitcoin payments and witnessing first hand what life on a Bitcoin standard looks like. Upcycling initiatives displayed their proof-of-work, Upcycled glasses, hand made Art, merchandise, peanut butter and beadwork, as proof that grassroots Bitcoin only initiatives are building without asking for permission. Special thanks to everyone who came through @npub1uq70...u0c2 booth, asked questions and left with a set up wallet and some stickers. Now the signal is back to communities and we're building at a maximum speed. Let's build on Bitcoin, Stay tuned! @npub1rm5v...68pk @npub1qx0x...qf85 @npub1zkr0...k6ec @npub1kk20...rq3x image
