January 24th is the start of the @AdoptingBitcoinCapeTown in SA 🎉 We were there last year & visited the @BitcoinEkasi project together with Valeria, media manager at Transfrontier Africa & Tsakane, anti-poaching ranger. She is now part of the educational team! Thanks to our @Geyser fundraiser we were able to fund their trip to the conference: Since the NGO didn’t accept Bitcoin donations at the time, we sent the funds in fiat & held the BTC for them until they can receive it in their own wallet 🙌🏽 We are since then working hard behind the scenes on their bitcoin adoption journey and made some significant progress during our last visit. Slowly then suddenly 💪🏽

Christmas, for me, is a time to embrace gratitude, love, and friendship. It was a truly unforgettable moment when the kids from the @bushbabiesedu school program surprised us with a heartfelt #Bitcoin Thank You, while having experienced meeting an elephant for the very first time in their life 🧡🙏🏽 Thank you to everyone who contributed to our fund and Bitcoin adoption program. Here’s to beautiful adventures ahead in 2025!

European banks are unbanking individuals, due to fears of government fines for non-compliance with regulations. This shows that “resistance money,” like Bitcoin, isn’t just a tool for those in Africa or Latin America. It’s also becoming relevant in developed regions where regulatory pressure impacts financial access. Having “nothing to hide” doesn’t ensure privacy or protect our data from misuse and (financial) censorship. ⬇️ #bitcoinbook image

Meta has discontinued the donation button feature in certain regions, including Europe, due to regulatory challenges and compliance issues. Luckily we have a simple lightning QR code to send some #bitcoin sats towards our new fundraising project 💪🏽🙏🏽😁 image

The European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) has been actively monitoring the cryptocurrency sector, including Bitcoin mining, due to concerns about its environmental impact, energy consumption, and implications for financial stability. Their 400-page report disclosed a strong stance against commercial Bitcoin mining. This report will also empower the ECB to devise ESG rules around institutional investment into Bitcoin and hereby economically disincentivize investment into Bitcoin and related products. @Daniel Batten on x “The EU Central Banks have the resources, knowledge of legal process, history of peer reviewed misinformation on BTC environmental impact.” Let’s back the ODFoundation founders 🙏🏽 @Lyudmyla Kozlovska and @Bota Jardemalie who have spent 18 months reading every EC document and fighting for the Bitcoin mining industry, often without the support they deserve. https://www.esma.europa.eu/sites/default/files/2024-07/ESMA75-453128700-1229_Final_Report_MiCA_CP2.pdf image

With the arrest of Telegram’s CEO Durov in France, just a reminder that #chatcontrol is also back on the agenda of EU governments. The Chatcontrol law in the EU could end end-to-end encryption, threatening user privacy by enabling real-time scanning of private messages. “They will discuss “progress” on 10/11 October and are to endorse it on 12/13 December. In June we managed to stop the unprecedented plan by an extremely narrow “blocking minority” of EU governments: Chat control proponents achieved 63.7% of the 65% of votes threshold required in the Council of the EU for a qualified majority.” @Patrick Breyer Take action to stop #chatcontrol The Belgian Presidency of the Council of the EU in the first half of 2024 was criticized for pushing forward this regulation:

We have launched our @Geyser Bitcoin Adoption for Wildlife fundraiser as it is important for Bitcoin's impact to extend beyond human rights and wellfare considerations to include animals' protection as well. Therefore, with our experience and knowledge of the Bitcoin ecosystem, we help wildlife projects to embrace Bitcoin.  We do this voluntary. The Bitcoin donations are hodled in a self-custody wallet so it can appreciate for futher initiatives. Drop some sats and encourage sustainable conservation for wildlife worldwide. image
