Today (Christmas Day), The Bitcoin Learning Center had a great conversation with both Deputy Mayors at the PAO office about our major educational events planned for 2026. We are grateful for their support and encouragement as we move forward.

Imagine having the answer to your neighbor’s struggles and choosing not to even share the information that could help them make better decisions about their future. 55M ppl live in Burma.

Join us this January at the Bitcoin Learning Center for a series of insightful and thought-provoking discussions.

Fai and I had the pleasure to introduce @Plan ₿ Network ‘s co-founder @Rogzy to Chiang Mai’s Prestigious university today in Thailand.

Bitcoin education is the cornerstone of every Bitcoin venture, from miners & wallet devs to exchanges, merchants, artists, holders, users & analysts. It fuels innovation, security & growth. Today, it took another step forward at university level, strengthening our shared future! @Plan ₿ Network

This is the way!

One year ago today we introduced Nostr to 100 children in the hill tribes that have never interacted with money before. Bitcoin Lightning was their very first interaction.

Bringing Bitcoin into the public has been a major win for exposure and awareness in our region.

I believe this is one of the most active bitcoin hubs in the world. Chiang Mai, Thailand.

Bitcoin has empowered us for over 3 years to directly uplift marginalized communities near the Burmese border in Northern Thailand by building bathrooms, kitchens, WiFi access, water wells, dormitories, funding scholarships, teaching English and delivering real basic infrastructure that improves lives.

I did not know where the road would lead eight years ago, only that something about Bitcoin felt honest and different.

We are bringing Bitcoin further and further into the country side In Thailand.

Bitcoin is creating common ground across religions through your sport events by giving people a shared purpose that rises above belief systems.

Started and completed an Ultra Marathon

Chilly morning to toe the line with some of the strongest athletes in the world. ⛰️

Between 10-20 new people visit the Learning Center each week. Last week we met Kosmos a Bitcoiner who recently moved to the region. Maybe he will come to the Bitcoin Christmas Party 🎅 in the same outfit 😎 learn more about his Bitcoin lottery project in this fascinating podcast.

Thousands more, both offline and online, will be exposed to the Bitcoin movement in Thailand this January ⛰️

Showing up in person carries a weight that donations or social media posts never match. When people travel to marginalized communities, they bring human presence, dignity, and genuine connection. It signals that these communities are worth time, effort, and shared experience. Direct engagement builds trust, accelerates real change, and inspires the next generation far more than distant support ever can, especially when you bring the race to them and turn their community into the starting point of their own rising future.

Our latest Bitcoin Running event sold out all 500 tickets in 12 days 💪🏼 The Bitcoin Trail Run sold out faster than ever! (12 days) We know many of the Thai (96% of registrations) didn’t get a chance to register, especially since most Thai get paid the last day of the month. To give everyone a fair chance, we’re reopening registration back up until noon on December 2nd. 💪🏼
