This is James: He uses bitcoin to preserve his wealth across generations for the well-being of his loved ones. As a teenager, James started working on the assembly line in a food processing factory. Over the decades, he worked his way up to a leader in the company. Now, after having devoted a lifetime to working 40 hours a week for a reasonable salary, James has saved a substantial sum with the intention of passing it on to his children in the future.   At the beginning of his career, he could put the money in a savings account and it would steadily increase. Unfortunately, especially in recent years, he noticed that despite all the hard work and energy he put into saving this money, he was able to buy less and less every year given the continuous rise in the cost of living. Fiat money appeared to be a melting ice cube.   Disillusioned with a system that worked until it didn’t, James decided to think differently. He realized that bitcoin’s salability across time and its scarcity makes it the best way to store his time and energy in a way that cannot be taken or inflated away.  Play #Blockhunters to meet James and the other characters who use this freedom technology to enrich their lives! #inflation #legacy #bitcoineduation #fixthemoneyfixtheworld #retirementplan #bitcoinboardgame #familyiseverything #inheritance #timeandspace #bitcoin

Here's another one of the characters from our game: The Garcia Family! They use bitcoin to escape the grip of hyperinflation.
  The Garcia family of three lives in Venezuela, where inflation turned their world upside down. Imagine what happens to your savings when the cost of a chicken skyrockets from a few thousand bolivars to 14.6 million! Despite years of diligent saving, they found themselves unable to afford basic necessities—all because their government printed too much money.
 That’s when the Garcias turned to bitcoin. As a neutral, global, and unstoppable digital currency, bitcoin gives them a way to protect their earnings from hyperinflation. With bitcoin, they’ve regained the ability to save for their child’s future and escape the financial chaos caused by their collapsing fiat currency.
 Hyperinflation isn’t unique to Venezuela—it’s happened throughout history, from Weimar Germany to Zimbabwe. The Garcias’ story is a powerful reminder of bitcoin’s role as a lifeline for families facing similar crises worldwide. 
Help the Garcia family protect their future and inspire others to do the same! #Bitcoin #Hyperinflation #FinancialFreedom #fixthemoneyfixtheworld #SoundMoney #EscapeFiatCollapse #venezuela #argentina #zimbabwe #Blockhunters

Meet Maria, who sends value across borders with bitcoin 🌏💌 Maria is a dedicated Filipino nurse living in the U.S., tirelessly supporting her family back home. Like many Overseas Filipino Workers (OFWs), she sends remittances - a lifeline for millions but one burdened by high fees and slow transfers through companies like Western Union. In 2022 alone, these companies raked in $50 billion from remittances like Maria’s!   Maria found a better way. By using bitcoin and the lightning network, she seamlessly converts her dollars to bitcoin, transfers it instantly, and her family receives pesos—all without even knowing bitcoin was involved. No delays, no high fees—just more of her hard-earned money reaching the ones she loves.   Maria’s story is part of a global movement. With 79% of remittances sent to low and middle-income regions, imagine the impact if these funds went directly to families instead of middlemen.   Celebrate Maria’s mission to redefine international transfers and empower families worldwide!   #Bitcoin #Remittances #LightningNetwork #Philippines #FinancialFreedom #NoMiddlemen #blockhunters #pouch #boracay #bitcoinisland

Meet Anonymous: Just a person defending their right to privacy!
 We don’t know who Anonymous is—and that’s the point. They could be a whistle-blower exposing corruption, a dissident fighting for freedom, or simply someone who values their fundamental human right to privacy. 
When many people argue against #privacy they usually say "well who cares, if you have nothing to hide." But it's so important. It’s Article 12 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, because it protects individuals from unjust persecution. Without privacy, LGBTQ+ individuals, political opposition members, and activists become targets in hostile environments.
 Another point - free services like Facebook may seem harmless, but they profit by turning user data into a product, raising serious concerns about breaches and misuse. For Anonymous, bitcoin offers a solution: a censorship-resistant, permissionless network for financial transactions that puts control back in their hands.
 When you play #Blockhunters with you friends and fam, Anon will help you explain the importance of privacy to them 🙂

We improved our tutorial video!! This time, the audio was recorded by the one and only @npub1h8nk...rpev - as ingeniously suggested here on Nostr by @npub1am50...ks29 after @npub1suwx...rlxf shared the closet recording disaster. What an improvement!!!! 😂 We hope you find the new version clearer, more engaging, more professional and a lot easier to hear 😅 If you scan the white paper in your copy of Blockhunters, you'll now be directed to the new version. You can also find it on YouTube 🙂

Meet Tolu! The brave Nigerian activist fighting corruption with bitcoin.

In 2020, Tolu joined the #EndSARS protests, demanding an end to police brutality and corruption. The government’s response? Freeze their bank accounts! But Tolu and her fellow activists didn’t back down. They turned to bitcoin. They received anonymous donations to keep their movement alive, proving that no corrupt regime could completely silence the voices of its people. Tolu’s story isn’t unique. Not only is this particular protest a true story, but governments in Belarus, Russia, and even Canada have frozen the bank accounts of citizens fighting for their rights. Bitcoin offers a lifeline for those standing up against oppression everywhere. Tolu’s mission in Blockhunters is to protect democracy and resist corruption through unstoppable technology! #Bitcoin #CensorshipResistance #Activism #HumanRights #FreedomMoney #bitcoininafrica #Fixthemoneyfixtheworld #blockhunters #bitcoinboardgame #boardgames

Introducing… Hila! An advocate for financial freedom. Hila is an Afghan software engineer who found a way to secure her future despite challenges many couldn’t imagine. When she discovered bitcoin, it let her save and transact without relying on a male guardian, circumvent U.S. sanctions on PayPal, and avoid the risks of hiding physical cash. Bitcoin became Hila’s lifeline, offering stability and security while everything around her was uncertain. Even as oppressive regimes like the Taliban sought to control local businesses, confiscate assets, and suppress financial independence, they could never stop bitcoin. If it sounds familiar, it’s because we based Hila’s character on the story of Roya Mahboob – a real life pioneer of bitcoin and who’s story is a testament to the power of financial self-sovereignty! 🌍 Support Hila in her mission to preserve autonomy and property rights for everyone, everywhere. #Bitcoin #FinancialFreedom #blockhunters #SelfSovereignty #humanrights #Womenofnostr #Permissionless #fixthemoneyfixtheworld image

Meet Zoey! Zoey is an indie artist who plays by her own rules. Zoey’s dream is to simply make a living doing what she loves: creating music that’s 100% authentic to her unique style... she refuses to compromise her art just to chase algorithms or ad revenue. Using a Value4Value (V4V) model, Zoey shares her music freely, and listeners send her direct micro-payments (zaps) over the bitcoin lightning network. No ads, no middlemen, no compromises. #Bitcoin #Value4Value #IndieArtist #LightningNetwork #NoMiddlemen #Nostr #blockhunters #bitcoinart

Introducing the characters in our game! Let's start with Xin: who is fighting for freedom in a surveillance state. Xin lives in China, where privacy is a luxury he doesn’t have. With facial recognition technology, a Social Credit System, and the Great Firewall restricting internet access, Xin’s every move is monitored. The rise of Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs) adds another layer of control. With programmable features, the government could dictate how Xin spends his money—or even set an expiration date on his funds. But Xin isn’t giving up. He’s turned to bitcoin, a tool that gives him financial sovereignty and restores his privacy. With bitcoin, Xin is reclaiming control of his money and taking the first step towards freedom in a world dominated by surveillance. In Blockhunters, you'll help maintain the network and in turn, support Xin’s mission to escape a dystopian reality... and inspire others to do the same ❤️ #Bitcoin #Privacy #fixthemoney #fixthemoneyfixtheworld #FreedomMoney #NoSurveillance #DecentralizedFinance #blockhunters #bitcoinEducation
