Happy 5 year anniversary of @fiatjaf 's Nostr manifesto! Last Wednesday @Cornell Bitcoin Club hosted a panel on Nostr, and we were incredibly grateful to be joined by @Derek Ross (Nostr Plebs), @Jeroen ✅ ( @Damus) , @Marko ( @primal) & @Patrick PReis (Ditto). Derek, Jeroen, Marko, & Patrick shared their: - Nostr "elevator pitch" - Innovations in the "Other Stuff" of "nOStr" - How students can get involved ...and much more! We streamed the panel on @zap.stream and afterwards, everyone gathered around the screen for another 30 minutes, going through it, @Alby, @primal & https://nostrapps.com! Special thank you to @Marce for bringing us all together!

Ever since #Nostriga, I’ve been counting down the days to share Nostr with @Cornell Bitcoin Club - and tomorrow’s the day! 🎉

Thank you very much for all you do, Edil! Most grateful for our conversation and to meet you and many of your students these past few days. View quoted note →

🌍 Introducing your Gen Z Layer (Z)ero! This past Sunday, I invited 179 Gen Z Bitcoiners from 29 countries, 57 schools, and 26 companies across 6 continents for the Genesis episode of Sats Chats! Community isn’t just important — it’s everything. Our peer-to-peer network is everything (h/t @NSmolenski). Since the moment I noticed it, I’ve loved knowing “network” appears 21 times in the whitepaper. Releasing our first episode, today, on 10/31, celebrates this potentially deeper meaning and focus on the power of community and our network. Bitcoin is rooted in math & physics, but it’s also rooted in us. Generation Z, born in the same era as Bitcoin, is uniquely positioned to be part of our Layer (Z)ero, the social and human layer, helping shape a world where humanity’s potential truly flourishes. And the best part? We’re already taking steps toward that vision. 🎧 Tune in bi-weekly on SATurdays! Together, we’re laying a new foundation, with our peer-to-peer network as its heartbeat.

Grateful for another semester ahead! View quoted note →

Question for those that use @zap.stream…Is there a server/ way to upload a file >25 MB? Thank you!

And @Cornell Bitcoin Club ‘s 2nd semester begins!

Spoke to a new #Bitcoin club founder today and they shared that they signed up 85 members at their Club Fair - WOW 🎉

I just received my first ecash 🤯 courtesy of @matthewvuk2! And now passing it on! (in 🧵)

🌬️NEW ARTICLE PUBLISHED This summer, I worked on a report to craft a narrative around #Bitcoin and specifically why Gen Z would be inclined to stack some sats. TL;DR: Bitcoin is economic oxygen to breathe life back into Gen Z’s future. And, after #Nostriga, I’m increasingly of the belief that Nostr is how Gen Z will take their first breath. (It’s already how @Cornell Bitcoin Club members did in April by receiving zaps through @primal.) The @galaxyhq team has very kindly allowed me to share it 💜 . It’s published through @Highlighter and @Habla News. The formatting (citations) didn’t come out super, so you can also find it through my Google drive: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1esiQtvfD1NJDvesii_TfOlT7egEM4Syy?usp=sharing Habla --> View article → Highlighter --> https://highlighter.com/a/naddr1qvzqqqr4gupzq9fekpmzwvjct2fzjzejx4dwu5p6x5eft9jh742tzt92j7gfwss6qp9y2cm0dehk66tr948hs7t8v4hz64rgv5k4xmm4dejz6nt0dejhjt2ndak82arfdahz6ar094sj6snjda4k2m3df4hkuete94fhgctwv3shyepdx4hkkvt60qswd0p3 #bitcoin #genz
