very excited about this: a bitcoin-backed stablecoin that's built with cashu ecash is launching very soon.
it could become the most private usd digital cash system ever built.
incredible. will keep you posted.
Thank you all for helping to build, test, and promote Bitchat.
Proud of the Bitcoin and Nostr community for stepping up and defending freedom of speech for people around the world.
Thank you for working on Bitcoin. Seriously.
Fiat money and the system of control they've built around it is terrifying and it will never loosen its grip around our necks.
If we don't save ourselves, noone will. Thank you for helping.
What if you could pay with Bitcoin — but anywhere? PlebQR is the killer Bitcoin app in Thailand.
An incredible alignment of different interests: one pleb wants to buy something in a store with Bitcoin, another pleb wants to stack sats. PlebQR is a pleb-to-pleb Bitcoin exchange that's basically unstoppable. The platform connects product buyers with Bitcoin stackers.
Here's how it works: you (the Bitcoiner buying a product) scan the ubiquitous Thai fiat QR payment code and upload it to the PlebQR platform. You then pay a Lightning invoice, wait 1-2 minutes for a match, and some pleb out there looking to buy BTC pays your fiat QR and receives your Bitcoin. Everybody happy.
I just bought a pair of sandals and a shirt and some guy got to stack my non-KYC sats at a pretty good rate.
I love Bitcoin when it shines like this. Bitcoin is the money of the future and we don't need the old world's permission to make it work. Big respect to the Thai Bitcoiner community.
