Jeremy (bitcoincashpodcast):
Their own ecosystem is coming undone.

Collapsing under the weight of their combined lies and fraud.

The Paytaca conference is awesome everyone should watch the livestream

Really strong contrast of BCH progress to BTC chaos for online viewers.

There's loads of people here, Paytaca team have done amazing work on their local community.

The amount of dev talent being created in the hackathon is really incredible.

Everyone in the ecosystem who has been working on tooling and wallets should feel really proud of themselves because it's unlocking the door for so many young students to get involved on BCH.

And Gordon Lin suggest a Filipino soup below ๐Ÿ‘‡

Some green in our BCHnostr Pulse dashboard: https://www.bchnostr.live

You can feel the BCHNOSTR atmosphere in there: who is creating content, who is active, who is the most mentioned and so much in the dashboard. The great news - you can also get your business advertising as a partner not a regular ad place. Hit me on DM and become an advertiser just for $25 a week in the Top and $20 in the footer.

I will do the work and you just sit down and your partner (me) will do the job ๐Ÿค

The BCH crew in the Philippines. In the Photo Ian Blas from Argentina and Noel from Australia. What are beautiful moment to find and connect with Cashies from all over the world.

Next opportunity I am going to be there. That's a promise that I will fulfill.

Who in here is attending the Cash Conference in the Philippines? Post some photos so we can be jealous about๐Ÿ˜‚

๐ŸŽฏ Help reach this BCH creator goal: "Help CHAPA BCH Mozambique Complete the Final Repairs and Return to Full Operation."
CHAPA BCH Mozambique is back on the road!

After weeks of hard work, repairs, and patience, our ride has finally been rebuilt. This is the update I have been waiting to share with the Bitcoin Cash community.

I delayed this announcement because I wanted to make sure the vehicle was properly assembled and that the main repairs were completed first. Today, the CHAPA is back together, the damaged parts have been replaced, and it looks completely different from where we started.

The hardest part is behind us.

However, the repair process consumed all available funds. The work required more than expected, and during this period BCH also lost value. I waited as long as possible before starting the repairs, hoping the situation would improve, but eventually I had to move forward because this project needed to continue.

Now we are at the final stage.

The remaining repairs needed before the CHAPA BCH can return to full-time operation are:

1. Radiator repair/replacement โ€” $120

The current radiator system has a problem that causes the engine to overheat. I cannot safely operate the vehicle like this because it could lead to serious engine damage, which would be much more expensive to repair.

2. Engine inspection and maintenance โ€” $80

Before returning to daily operation, the engine needs a proper check to make sure everything is working correctly after the repairs and that we can continue running reliably.

3. Front section painting and finishing โ€” $70

The front area needs to be painted and finished so the CHAPA can return to the streets looking professional and representing Bitcoin Cash properly.

4. Small adjustments and unexpected costs โ€” $43

This will cover small parts, adjustments, transport, and other final expenses that usually appear during the final stage of a vehicle repair.

Total fundraising goal: $313

The good news is that the main bodywork is already completed.

The CHAPA now has:

- New headlights.
- A new hood.
- A genuine second-hand front bumper.
- All major damaged parts removed and replaced with new or quality second-hand parts.

Yesterday, I took the CHAPA for a short drive around the neighborhood so people could see that we are back. Being away from the streets for almost two months did not mean the mission stopped. We were rebuilding, preparing, and getting stronger.

But to continue spreading Bitcoin Cash adoption in Mozambique, we need to complete these final steps.

If you believe in grassroots Bitcoin Cash adoption and want to help bring this mobile BCH billboard back to full operation, please consider supporting this campaign.

Every donation, no matter the size, helps bring us closer to putting CHAPA BCH Mozambique fully back on the streets.

Thank you to everyone in the Bitcoin Cash family around the world who has supported this journey. Your support is what keeps this project moving forward.

Together, we will bring CHAPA BCH Mozambique back stronger than ever.

As a builder I find difficult to survive without people backing us. Not everytime we need to create crowdfunding campaigns to reach our goals but we need partners.

This people are the ones who will backup us and also benefit from those tools being built. It's a hand helping other:
- while I build and get the product out the backer get his brand exposed and both get what we want as we'll win together.

So I opened a Compass Sponsorship Program where I will be showing no intrusive ads for my backers that will cost $25 in the Top and $20 in the footer in all Cash Compass pages. I already started on BCHnostr.live and soon CompassPay, StableShift and also BCH fame will follow up.

If you want to become a very important person into our network, reach me here on DM and from there will follow suit.

"No tool, business, survive without backing and many great ones end up vanishing because of that".

Today we celebrate ๐Ÿฅ‚ another BCH Bank Run, STAMP Burn, the 9th anniversary of Bitcoin Cash, and the Cash Conference in the Philippines.

These are different milestones happening on the same day, but they all share one thing in common: Bitcoin Cash.

I had the pleasure of burning those STAMP and, at the same time, reminding people that BCH users should consider taking their coins out of centralized exchanges and keeping them in self-custody.

By doing this, you protect your coins from manipulation and from the risks that come with trusting centralized entities. These platforms can influence how your funds are handled, and many of them may not even hold enough BCH in their own cold storage to fully back their users.

Be the change. Take control of your coins. Self-custody them, become your own bank, and say it loud:

"No one plays with my coins."

Happy 9th anniversary, BCH. Happy BCH Bank Run, and happy Cash Conference in the Philippines to all BCHers around the world.

Let's celebrate.

Our stage of communication is BCHNostr for the last 3 months. I have seen some good creators here that deserve some special attention also some spammers, garbage posters, scammers, etcetera that doesn't deserve a minimal attention than flag and lock them out from your site.

For some months the platforms was only composed by few people, less than 50 to be precise, and it was wonderful to know each one who came over. Since then, thousands joined. Some are real people mostly are bots coming to "milk" generous people who came along to Help users maximize their stay in the platform. Since them, it became a chaos' situation.

Greedy and high qualified milkers came along looking for attention even spending money to get verified only with the purpose to ve considered part of the growing BCHnostr FAM while a "plan" was orchestrated behind the scenes.

They reached their intents as BCH community is always welcoming and get the most from it. It took some time and I quite new that once that flow of cash stopped that revamp of people would point their ammo in another direction and wait for the next "victim" to come along and milk those BCH from him. Shame on them as I know that Prime will come back and he will recognize the ones that doesn't deserve his attention and those who remained strong.

If the original Prime doesn't come another Prime will emerge in here. I have been in the BCH community since 2019 and I have met ton of generous people and they will come to BCHNostr and that is a matter of time. Those greedy ones will return in mass, change their usernames, start fresh, look to suck up more BCH, BUT thus time will be prepared and only the Legends, the recognized ones will be able to participate in activities here.

I know that @BCH Reply Guy is cooking something about and those greedy, garbage posters, spammers, etcetera will cry harder and louder. And they deserve.

BCHnostr is a good place to be and hangout. Which social media around has what we have? A radio station, a crowdfunding platform, a Livestream feature, marketplace and much more available that you can use for FREE. YOU shouldn't sleep on BCHnostr and we the "warriors" are here to prove that.

Happy 9th anniversary to Bitcoin Cash from one of the most active users in the community. It's already 7 years of non stop grinding. This is a sign of strength and belief in the ecosystem.
Let's celebrate ๐Ÿฅ‚

โš ๏ธ Hardware wallets are not magic: a lesson from the recent Coldcard incident

Many people believe that using a hardware wallet means their funds are automatically 100% safe.

But the reality is different.

A recent security incident showed that even trusted hardware wallets can have bugs.

The problem was not that someone remotely hacked the devices. The issue was that some wallets generated weak recovery seeds because of a flaw in the randomness generation process.

Those seeds looked normal, but they contained much less randomness than they should have. This allowed attackers to calculate possible seeds, find vulnerable wallets, and move the funds.

The result?

More than 1,100 wallets were compromised and over 1,000 BTC were stolen (around $70 million at the time).

The lesson is not "don't use hardware wallets." They are still one of the best tools for protecting crypto.

The lesson is:

โ€ข Keep firmware updated
โ€ข Follow security announcements
โ€ข Never reuse a seed that may have been generated during a vulnerable period
โ€ข Consider spreading large holdings across multiple wallets

As CZ said:

"Even hardware wallets can have bugs. Even old wallets (with long history) can have bugs.

How to mitigate? Split your funds in a few wallets maybe? This has a different set of risks. Nothing is 100%.

Stay informed. Stay SAFU!"

Crypto gives us financial freedom, but that freedom comes with responsibility.

Your keys, your coins โ€” but also your security decisions.

Stay alert.

Today, Bitcoin Cash turns 9 years old.

In those nine years, BCH has quietly grown into much more than just a cryptocurrency for payments.

Today you can send money anywhere in the world in seconds with fees that are still close to zero. You can create your own tokens without relying on another blockchain, build smart contracts, trade on decentralized exchanges, create prediction markets, and even develop advanced applications that many people don't realize are already possible on Bitcoin Cash.

While much of the crypto world has been debating what Bitcoin could become, Bitcoin Cash has spent the last nine years actually building.

Of course, not everything is perfect. There is still plenty of work to do, more businesses to onboard, and more people to educate. But the progress is undeniable.

Whether you've been here since 2017 or you're just discovering BCH today, it's worth taking a fresh look at what it has become instead of relying on opinions from years ago.

Happy 9th anniversary, Bitcoin Cash. Here's to the next chapter of building peer-to-peer electronic cash for the world.

I will continue here posting, chatting and connecting with more interesting people who are genuine and love the app. People will come around and this time we should step in and tell the truth about them - they just come in here when there are "rich" folks to feed them and abandon the ship right after. Greedy is a disease. Keep building John and everything will be just fine.
