What is the common denominator among genuine Bitcoin educators? It's all about empowering others. The best Bitcoin educators don't tell people what to think. Instead, they give the people the tools to choose for themselves, freely. Below are just some of the projects, organizations, and people we've had the privilege of meeting personally over the past six months. Every one of them has strengthened our conviction that lasting Bitcoin education is built on passion, not profit. @My First Bitcoin @John Dennehy @Luis @HRF @BitcoinBerlínSV @AmityAge @BTC Sessions @Joe Nakamoto @lunaticoin @Bruno @La Bitcoineta @RodolfoBITS @La Crypta @El Gorila 🇦🇷 @Escuelita Bitcoin There's no doubt in our mind that one day the world will be inevitably Bitcoinized, full of sovereign individuals. How soon we get there though, depends on the work we do today. This is where purpose meets opportunity. Onwards!

🥊 Another milestone for the Bitcoin Basin. We are excited to welcome QFC as the first martial arts gym in Queenstown to accept Bitcoin! ⚡ You can now improve your fitness, challenge yourself, and learn the importance of self-defence through group, private, and women-only classes in Boxing, Muay Thai, MMA, and more.

Dear Nostriches If you have friends and family left to orange pill, feel free to send them our way, we are hosting free and practical Bitcoin Workshops wherever we go. Onwards!

@BitBox was already one of our top recommendations for anyone starting their sovereign journey into self-custody. For a few simple, yet very important, reasons: • Open source
• Great UX
• Solid reputation
• Bitcoin-only edition
• Spot on marketing (you can definitely tell there’s a maxi behind it!) After meeting the team behind it at @BTC Prague , our conviction only grew stronger. Special thanks to Pako for the great chat and taking the time to answer all our questions!

Hyperinflation. Overnight confiscation of the life savings of millions of people (just Google “Corralito 2001 Argentina”). Pretty much every monetary disaster you can think of…Argentina has been there. There is a reason countries like Argentina, Venezuela, and many parts of Africa are among the fastest adopters of Bitcoin. In some countries, the money is not just broken, it has been obliterated. If you want a fast-track through Argentina’s economic history and the unbelievable policies that repeatedly destroyed people’s purchasing power, I highly recommend “Bitcoin Prophecy” by @npub1l9m3...sepm It is important to be on the lookout for the signs…It could and will, in due time, happen everywhere. A hard copy is available at the @Bitcoin Basin. NZ Library.

1.2 TH of Bitcoin mining heading from Central Europe to the bottom of the world 🇳🇿 It was great meeting the @Bitronic team in person at @BTC Prague . They not only manufacture Bitaxe and Nerdaxe miners, but actively contribute to open-source hardware development, helping towards a more decentralized mining network. The miner was paid in sats Lightning fast using New Zealand’s finest non-custodial Bitcoin wallet, Stacked. ⚡🧡

What we liked most about “Bitcoin is for Everyone” by @nat brunell is that it delivers value to both complete beginners and experienced Bitcoiners. As Bitcoin educators of the @Bitcoin Basin. NZ circular economy we are always looking for original ways to explain Bitcoin as simply as possible, and this book is filled with great analogies and clear examples. We highly recommend the audiobook version too… and its more impressive after discovering it was recorded in just two days. Thank you Natalie for your POW and time at @BTC Prague

What do Bitcoin, Nostr, and AI have in common? If used properly, they are all tools for sovereignty. Really enjoyed the panel with @Jeff Booth @Francis Mars , @Tanja @Constant at @BTC Prague Its a great sign being able to tag everyone in Nostr, unlike X 🤣 I would suggest everyone in Nostr keep April 2 to 3, 2027 on their radar, the Sovereignty Summit in Queenstown New Zealand, where will explore how Bitcoin and other freedom technologies help us become more sovereign across every aspect of our life.

Bitcoin educators from all over the world came together under one roof to share their experiences and learn from one another. An incredible pure signal event made possible by @My First Bitcoin and @AmityAge Honored to share the panel with @John Dennehy and Jordi from @Satlantis: Social Events and discuss ways of making Bitcoin education sustainable. Here’s to many more Bitcoin Educators Unconferences to come…Hopefully we can host one in New Zealand in the near future. ⚡🇳🇿

What do frontline human rights activists and Bitcoin developers have in common? They are builders. Good intentions are not enough to build a better future, it requires skill, commitment, and purpose. And the Oslo Freedom Forum by @HRF is creating the perfect conditions for all of this to flourish. A truly incredible conference, with a huge amount of work happening behind the scenes…you can tell because everything ran extremely smoothly. Hats off

We have decentralised money. And now we also have decentralised communications that don't rely on intermediaries or even the internet. This is the definition of Freedom Technologies. Try it out, download Bitchat. Great talk by @calle at @HRF
