Paying it forward with what I've learned over the past few years. For at least the last three years, I've been jotting down notes on concepts tied to the financial system and Bitcoin. Some of that stuff I even shared or published, while other bits were just for my own understanding. But after piling up page after page, it hit me that the same material that helped me start wrapping my head around these ideas could be handy for other folks who, like me, aren't economists or tech whizzes. So I decided to turn those notes into a free book that anyone can download and share for free. This weekend, I picked up some printed copies, and I also got a site up and running (it's pretty basic, I know!) where you can grab the digital version, plus links to buy physical copies or e-reader editions, those come with their own costs, and I don't make a dime off them! There won't be any bookstore launch event or signing session, but that doesn't mean I can't share it with you here in #nostr . In the final chapter, I rounded up 65 fun facts about Bitcoin throughout its history! So even if you skip the more technical sections, you've got this lighter one to check out! There are tons of people I should thank for their support along the way, even though most of them don't know me and have no idea about the impact they've had. A few are already mentioned in the book, but I have to give a special shoutout to other authors @Saifedean Ammous @Lyn Alden @kalle @Gigi Nik Bhatia… Let me know later which fact you thought was the most interesting! image

The curiosity about who Satoshi Nakamoto is will become a movie. “Killing Satoshi” has just been announced and is set to premiere in 2026. And no, Dorian Satoshi Nakamoto wasn’t invited to join the cast. Unlike most films on the topic, which are documentaries, this one will be fiction and is set to start filming in London in October. #BTC #bitcoin #nostr #satoshi image

Blackrock: "Fiz 6,5 bi com 11,5 tri sob gestão!" Tether com apenas 157 bi sob gestão: "Segura minha cerveja..." Um modelo de negócios que até então sempre fora proibido pelo Fed por representar um risco indevido à estabilidade do sistema financeiro dos EUA. Porém algumas empresas conseguiram contornar tais proibições e operam com margens gigantes! São as emissoras de stablecoins que abocanharam o mercado dos proibidos bancos restritos (narrow banks). Artigo escrito em conjunto com a fera @Julio Santos #bitcoin #BTC #nostr image

How about solving a captcha and earning 5 bitcoins? Too bad we’re 15 years late! But this was actually a real initiative! Exactly 15 years ago, Gavin Andresen created a website called Bitcoin Faucet that gave away BTC. The protocol was still in its early days, and the goal was to allow more people to access bitcoins without having to mine. Initially, he funded the faucet with 1,100 bitcoins, but over time, other donations were made. In the end, the faucet distributed 19,700 BTC before shutting down in 2012. #Bitcoin #BTC #Nostr image
