Sixteen years ago, Satoshi Nakamoto released the Bitcoin white paper, sparking a quiet revolution. For early adopters like Hal Finney and a few pioneers, Bitcoin’s potential was clear from the start. They defied what Amara’s Law warns about—that we tend to overestimate short-term impact while underestimating long-term transformation. These early adopters saw Bitcoin as a digital currency that could shift the flow of value beyond traditional finance, even as most of us took years to catch on. Even today, as Bitcoin gains broader attention, we’re likely still underestimating what it can achieve over the long term. For those exploring #bitcoin now, remember—you’re still early! The next few decades will embed Bitcoin even deeper into the fabric of society, just as those early believers imagined. So, here’s to those who saw Bitcoin’s potential from the start, to those just beginning to understand what’s possible, and to the 16th anniversary of the White Paper that started it all.

Proof-of-work is what sets Bitcoin apart from other digital currencies—it requires real-world energy to secure the network, grounding this digital asset in the physical world. Unveiled at the @npub1ft69...tx3v in Lugano this weekend, a new statue of Satoshi Nakamoto, Bitcoin’s creator, embodies this concept in a striking way. From certain angles, the statue appears to disappear—a reminder of the power and subtlety of Bitcoin’s digital-to-physical connection. At Bitcoin Works in Edinburgh, we’re building a space inspired by this vision—a place where digital ideas make real-world impact and networks turn into real-life opportunities. 🧡 #bitcoin @Robbie @allen

Monday to Friday is ideal if you prefer staying in sync with the traditional workweek. But creativity doesn’t always stick to a schedule—it can strike at any moment, even on the weekend. That’s why it’s important to have a workspace that’s ready when inspiration hits, powered by the very fruits of your creativity. #bitcoin #SATurday #coworking
