Today is the official 10 year anniversary of BTC Sessions. Hard to believe I uploaded my first tutorial back in 2016. Thanks for an amazing decade. Join me for the next chapter as I move ALL tutorial content over to @npub146zh...22de . Bitcoin, privacy, AI and sovereign computing. See you there.

Today will be our 7th Sat Market here in Calgary. Since bootstrapping this local Bitcoin market a couple years ago it has grown into an awesome community that I now feel is becoming self sustaining. Tonight we're expecting between 40-50 vendors and a few hundred people in attendance. Community members now regularly volunteer to help organize, others step up to help with funding (which was out of my own pocket for most of them), and we're beginning to expand into additional community events so it becomes more of an experience. I can't wait to see what's next, and I encourage people to build their own local communities that use Bitcoin as money. It's incredibly rewarding and brings everyone together. Will post pics after the event!

Hey everyone! I'm doing a webinar for the @HRF today teaching human rights activists from around the globe about nostr! We've got 50 people in the room and I want to show them what zaps are! Shoot some over if you're able! I'll forward them onto the HRF afterwards. Thanks all!

This Friday we're hosting our 7 local Bitcoin market in Calgary! We're expecting just shy of 40 merchants, all accepting BTC. We've got tradesmen, farmers, artisans, real estate agents, barbers, masseuses, hypnotherapists, and plenty more! Love seeing the local Bitcoin circular economy grow.

As a reminder, you can get sats without ID (which are the best kind of sats!) I've been messing around with @Hodl Hodl now that they added lightning and it's pretty seamless. Definitely worth testing if anyone gets the chance. I'll have a tutorial for that when Sovereign Sessions launches this August, but it's basically the same flow as on-chain with some small differences. Feel free to check out my previous tutorial: HODLHODL website is here:

Oh and this video is totally unrelated... but also useful.

Excited to give this a whirl.

What's a reasonably secure way to use Hermes? Does it have to be on a segregated machine, or is there a good way to sandbox it on your main computer? How difficult is it to give the agent selective access and have it still be useful?
