Permission-less, borderless, open-source running club at the intersection of two social movements enabling sovereignty of one’s wealth, while improving one’s health.
Happy Bitcoin White Paper Day! Abstract. A purely peer-to-peer version of electronic cash would allow online payments to be sent directly from one party to another without going through a financial institution. Digital signatures provide part of the solution, but the main benefits are lost if a trusted third party is still required to prevent double-spending. We propose a solution to the double-spending problem using a peer-to-peer network. The network timestamps transactions by hashing them into an ongoing chain of hash-based proof-of-work, forming a record that cannot be changed without redoing the proof-of-work. The longest chain not only serves as proof of the sequence of events witnessed, but proof that it came from the largest pool of CPU power. As long as a majority of CPU power is controlled by nodes that are not cooperating to attack the network, they'll generate the longest chain and outpace attackers. The network itself requires minimal structure. Messages are broadcast on a best effort basis, and nodes can leave and rejoin the network at will, accepting the longest proof-of-work chain as proof of what happened while they were gone.

Memorising bibs is a superpower in the bitcoin space and I made a tired typo. The note below should read: “The World’s first BIP-0039 Wordlist Raffle”. We got it right for the actual raffle. image View quoted note →

One Powerful Lesson 30 KM | 6 HRS | 2110 M D+ “Running this trail reminded me a lot of the journey with Bitcoin. Both are about resilience, pushing through tough conditions, and believing in something bigger. Just like Bitcoin’s decentralized nature, running a mountain trail teaches you that the power comes from within—no single force controls the path, but your determination defines the outcome. Every climb felt like a step towards a more independent mindset, just like each block mined brings us closer to decentralization. The ups and downs of the trail were a reminder that the hardest paths often lead to the greatest rewards—whether it’s crossing the finish line or achieving financial freedom. Huge thanks to the amazing support from @nhlarmaan of BitcoinHub for backing me throughout this journey, both on and off the trail. Your support made this run possible. Here’s to more miles, more blocks, and more victories! 🏔👟💪” - Ankur Pandey Zap Ankur on Nostr @caffeine image
🚀 On Sunday, a team of Bitcoin Runners took on the challenge of a trail marathon relay race and won! The prestigious event takes runners along an ancient route connecting Salisbury with Winchester in the UK. More than 1,000 runners participated, and the competition was fierce, with nail-biting drama at the second transition as the top two relay teams sprinted neck and neck through crowds of cheering supporters. The team, consisting of Alex (captain), Dylan, James, and Rich, went on to complete the race in 2:45:27, setting a new course record! It’s our 4th year participating, which makes the win even sweeter. Bitcoin is gaining positive recognition despite FUD. This is more than just a future global reserve asset — it’s a movement of people, and we’re winning! 🏆 News article:
Exciting weekend ahead celebrating Bitcoin, fitness, and freedom tech! We’ve got #BitcoinRunners representing in an ultra (50km) trail race finishing in Bournemouth 🇬🇧, a pro team marathon relay (Salisbury to Winchester 🇬🇧), and a half marathon in Cologne 🇩🇪. Are there any other bitcoiners running who we should be cheering for? #RunningBitcoinGivesYouWings
