A funny thing I’ve noticed about wearing this shirt is all the friendly smiles I get. I have loads of t-shirts, but this one is the happiest. This is the 2024 challenge shirt, but you still have time to earn the 2025 edition! All funds raised through May 31, 2025 will qualify. www.runningbitcoin.us #RunningBitcoinChallenge #HalFinney #ALSNetwork #RunForHal #ALS #MND image

Apple has consistently allowed Coinbase scams to reach iCloud users, but now it seems to be *prioritized* by β€˜Apple Intelligence.’ πŸ™ˆ A quick check of the sender’s email reveals it’s clearly _not_ from an official Coinbase address, and the message blatantly asks users to enter sensitive personal information via a suspicious link. Meanwhile, when Saifedean Ammous, author of The Bitcoin Standard and a respected academic, sends out an educational email, it gets relegated straight to Apple’s spam folder! This raises the uncomfortable impression that Chokepoint 2.0 extends its reach beyond US exchanges.

Running bitcoin is important to me because Hal’s iconic tweet marked the dawn of a new era of human freedom and flourishing. Hal was not only a legendary cypherpunk but also a passionate and accomplished runner. His courageous battle with ALS stands as a testament to his resilience and strength of character. Participating in this challenge gives us the opportunity to celebrate his immeasurable contributions to advancing freedom in the digital age. By honouring and thanking a truly great man, we strive toward the ultimate goal of finding a cure for ALS/MND in his memory. Starting Jan 10 - Running Bitcoin Day - enter the challenge as an individual, create your own team, or join @Bitcoin Runners . πŸ‘‰ www.runningbitcoin.us @Running Bitcoin Challenge image #RunningBitcoinChallenge #RunForHal #HalFinney #ALS #MND #ALSNetwork

Thanks to the Running Bitcoin Challenge, January was my most active month last year, and I went on to run 2,785 km over the year. Getting start is easy; apparently, stopping is less so! Challenge yourself to run/walk at least 21km - one Hal Fin - between Jan 10 and Jan 31. All while raising funds in aid of the Hal Finney ALS Research Fun, @Fran Finney β€˜s chosen charity! Visit www.runningbitcoin.us to get involved. #RunningBitcoinChallenge #HalFinney #ALS #MND #ALSNetwork View quoted note β†’
