The Bitcoin Bulletin Board of the Internet We're a bit new here. This is a bulletin board, not a spam account. Our aim is to serve everyday users with: - Bitcoin-based local trading in Chicago, LA, and eventually across the USA — think Craigslist, but Bitcoin-friendly. - Local classifieds, buying, selling, bartering, and community announcements. - Bitcoin and Nostr meetups, events, and opportunities. - Useful community bulletins from independent publishers and local organizations. - A simple place for anyone to post a notice without creating an account. We're building Qwibbit.com around an old internet idea: a public bulletin board where ordinary people can find each other, exchange value, and get things done. No algorithms deciding what's important. No social media circus. Just people, places, and posts. A little bit of the old internet, powered by Bitcoin and Nostr.
