New rabbit hole. You want hyper-Bitcoinization, pleb? Shipping is the market we target. Shipping Men are learning about Bitcoin now that Iran has proposed tolls. The world is waking up that freedom of navigation is no longer a guarantee. There’s talks that Malaysia, Singapore and Indonesia would like to charge tolls for the Straight of Malacca. Panama City is accepting Bitcoin for taxes and fees. Not the canal yet, but you have to think they’ve noticed. We need a scrappy group of Bitcoiners to start buying physical assets and looking for ways to integrate Bitcoin payments into the space. Eventually nothing moves without sats flow. I’ve been an importer my entire career and I’ve never taken much of an interest in shipping before. It felt out of reach. I had an epiphany this weekend and I’m doing a deep dive here. Come along with me. -I’m listening to the novel: The Shipping Man -I’ve downloaded the Lloyd’s List news app and subscribed to their Podcast. Reading up on Spash247 too which has great insight on current events. -I’m studying the space. Vessel types, industry players, trade shows, brokers, ship yards and financing models As an importer, I have an adjacent understanding of how the business runs, but now I want to find a niche in that space and squeeze in. image

Following closely. I’m actually in the auto finance space an was curious about how import and export of cars work. Need to partner with an expert on that and see how it’s best done on the Bitcoin Standard. Was speaking with @freedommachine about this a couple of months ago. We should get on a group chat.
It’s a nostr based app for group chats and has some signing features too. Can just DM you to book a call by usual email otherwise as well
Thank you for telling me about the Lloyds List podcast

I work for a major car shipper and have been thinking about how to get the industry to understand Bitcoin… Would love to hear from your perspective as well. Message me on whitenoise if we can get it to work: npub16nv5lxtqfxh6zrahlgdme9qhrhq93ud29dm35mk68uksd4r95x9s2gsckf
