I will be teaching a class on Decentralized Identity at Hong Kong University of Science and Technology. We will learn about Nostr and Polygon ID. Take a unique photo of me in class, create a Nostr profile with a @Alby bitcoin lightning wallet, reply to this post or message me in a post, and I (and maybe even others…) will pay you to complete your homework with a zap. #GrowNostr #Bitcoin #HKUST #HongKong #PolygonID #Web3 #DID

Happy 25th anniversary to Wei Dai’s b-money paper which was credited as one of the inspirations for #Bitcoin 10 years later by Satoshi http://www.weidai.com/bmoney.txt

Looking forward to presenting on “The Future of Money” at the first meeting of #ACTI in #HongKong this Thursday 2023/11/30 at 6:30PM. Please register. Looks like an interesting mix of government, #TradFi and #Bitcoin #Web3 community attending to talk about #CBDC, #stablecoins, RWA #tokenization.

These types of projects are the only way to learn.

You have an opportunity to show a room full of billionaires how to set up a cold wallet in 20 minutes. Which guide would you use? Which hardware would you pick?

Happy Thanksgiving. Here is your dinner discussion cheat sheet.

Fully agree with my six year old son… they should have a sequel to Who Framed Roger Rabbit. That movie is awesome, forgot how good it was.

It will be an interesting 2024 in Argentina. Milei is in support of dollarization, ending the central bank, and supportive of Bitcoin. It remains to be seen if he would encourage government to use Bitcoin in any way. Argentina YoY inflation was 142.7% as reported by BCRA in October 2023.
