As many of you know, I've been at Swan Bitcoin for the past 2.5 years.
As Head of R&D, my job has been to basically play with bitcoin stuff: Miniscript, BDK, making Coldcard do cool shit (like hook it up to a CLN and use it as a lightning signer), write Swan's LN backend, t-of-n ECDSA signing, and a bunch of other cool stuff.
If it hasn't been super obvious thus far, Nostr has absolutely captured my imagination and inspiration.
Now it's the time to take a step back, and transition to working on nostr full-time. What am I going to be doing? I'm not sure yet, I have an abundance of ideas that I will be/already am exploring, but now it's the time to double-down and seriously pursue things.
There's a WHOLE lot more to come.
I can't thank @Cory,
@yan, and the whole Swan crew; it's been an absolute pleasure to work along people who share such a distinctively clear mission of doing what's best for bitcoin and bitcoiners.
LFG, team #bitcoin! 🧡

🙌 if you ever need a non-coder who can communicate in English, French and Italian with professional background in video production (esp post-prod) and media education I know this purple bunny who would love to help.

I love this. Your passion for Nostr is so evident and what you’ve contributed both technically and by your presence and engagement with everyone here is invaluable and appreciated more than can be said. Congratulations on this move. Nostr is all the better for it. 💜🫂

I don’t really understand what you devs do (can grasp some concepts). But I can recognize his hard work, good energy and great attitude.
What a jump! Bravo Pablo!
Love to see it! 🚀
Congratulations! 🎉
CONGRATS!!!
Congrats brother. Cant wait to see what you’ll come up with 💜
Good on you for pursuing what drives you💪🏼
May I suggest a video integration & some kind of ability to find people with their username rather than a clunky npub or “email”.
LFG #integratevideo
Here’s to new adventures! 🍻
let me know if you need any kind help
Cheers 🍻
I wish I could make 10% of the concepts I have happen 😂 Great move, and I think you will do some great stuff in this space. I'm following closely 🔥
Dude wasn't even Nostring the whole time.#[3] you are legen, hope your not lactose intolerance,
dairy!!!
View quoted note →💪 keep going!
big W for Nostr 🚀
Wait, you mean you've done everything you've already achieved PART TIME!?
It's very uplifting and motivating seeing people finding absolute joy in what they do. Even more so when it's about selflessly pioneering new frontiers and nudging others to join.
I'm glad you're gonna have more time for it, and hope you'll get rewarded.
Awesome, looking forward for all the amazing stuff you'll build 🔥
Hell yeah, congrats!
Many more swan songs ahead 🥂

You and
@The Daniel ⚡️ could probably cook up a cauldron of magic here on #nostr, giving it your full attention.
