Please give a warm welcome to 2 new users of the Bitcoin Network!

In just a few hours they learned the importance of holding their own keys and completed their first transactions, both on-chain and through the Lightning Network ⚡️

These personalised, accessible, step-by-step workshops are only possible thanks to the strong collaboration between Bitcoiners, which is helping build one of the fastest-growing circular economies: @Bitcoin Basin. NZ

The question is:

If someone else can freeze or devalue your money, do you really own it?

Learn how to truly own your money.

More workshops coming, in person, online, in English and Spanish.

Onwards!

Another great meetup at @Bitcoin Basin. NZ

This month we met at Momentos by the Lake, with breathtaking views and seriously good food, paying for everything in #Bitcoin.

Grateful for the people who keep showing up, sharing, and building this community together.

Join us every 3rd Thursday of the month, a relaxed space to connect, learn, and be part of something growing. Everyone’s welcome.

Until next time!

Beautifully said @Nell 🧡

Bitcoin circular economies are flourishing all over the world, and they are only possible through the collective effort of like-minded people.

We are building the foundations of a new financial system, one where everyone is equal and long term thinking is rewarded.

Together, we build better and faster.

Honoured to be part of the @Bitcoin Basin. NZ , helping the community understand Bitcoin and the importance of holding their own keys.

Alright plebs!

Our next Monthly meetup at the @Bitcoin Basin. NZ is happening in the heart of Queenstown, right by the lake.

This venue is giving Bitcoin a shot for the very first time, they’ll be accepting Bitcoin as payment exclusively for our event.

Now it’s up to us:
Let’s show them the incentives to become a permanent Bitcoin merchant.

If you’re in Queenstown (or know someone who is), spread the word, come along, and top up your Lightning wallet to spend some sats!

📍 Location: Momentos by the Lake
🕠 Time: 17:30

See you there!

Another successful Bitcoin Workshop 🙌

5 people learned how this incredible technology is reshaping the way we think about money, freedom, and ownership.

Once you see it, it can’t be undone.

Many more free workshops to come, thanks to the invaluable support of @Bitcoin Basin. NZ and Criterion Law Firm.

It is easy to call Bitcoin a Ponzi.

The hard part is explaining how it works.

People claiming it has no value, most likely fail to explain in simple terms:

Halving
Difficulty adjustment
Private key
BIP 39
SHA-256
Proof of Work

Bitcoin is an incredibly sophisticated and balanced system, the kind that only a very bright mind (or group of them) could create.

I have yet to meet someone who understands difficulty adjustment and is not optimistic about #Bitcoin.

The POW LAB is the headquarters of @Bitcoin Basin. NZ

A place where we not only host Bitcoin workshops for the local community, but also welcome Bitcoiners and open-source builders from all over the world, offering them a desk to work on freedom technologies.

This space is only possible thanks to the generosity and collaboration among Bitcoiners. And because of that, we couldnt miss the opportunity to bring in some of the outstanding work created by the people we met in El Salvador during @PlanBElsalvador :

• The beautiful original painting by @LewickiBartosz portraying the unstoppable honey badger against the fiat system

• Bitcoin Circular Economies: documenting grassroots Bitcoin adoption and how it empowers communities and individuals around the world by @ivan_kaleja, @GabrielKurman, @b4_humanity

• Bitcoin Prophecy: What Argentina Can Teach You About Your Money by @arielaguilar

• Bitcoin Para Negocios: a practical guide for merchants, created by @Evelynlemus2906 and implemented in @BitcoinBerlinSV
(especially relevant given the strong Latin American community in QT)

All of these are now part of the community library, available for anyone to read and admire.

If you’re coming to Queenstown, make sure to come and check out the amazing POW LAB! A fantastic place to connect and build. (https://powlab.nz/)
