It’s free!
Nooo! 🙈 Some songs should be left alone and respected the way they are without ever trying to copy them 😩
I was today years old when I leaned how to make bread.. Let’s see how the first attempt will turn out… 🤞 image
Very happy that we already have 3 committed sponsors for our upcoming 2026 edition of #Jobtober. Building a business is not easy, especially in Bitcoin. Especially in a bear market. Especially with bad news trying to knock our community out. But every year we have stronger relationships and things are becoming a tiny bit easier. The Bitcoin community can't be knocked out that easily. We all just keep going back to work after the initial shock. What else are we going to do? The mission hasn't changed. We are still early. We'll do better from now on. Relationships are one of our most important assets. You think Bitcoin is important? You think time is more important than Bitcoin? What are you going to do with either of them, without relationships? Whether you’re building a life, a business or a career - you need good relationships. And it all starts with letting other people know that you exist. During #Jobtober, we help Bitcoiners make themselves more visible, so they can become better #findable by the people (clients, recruiters, builders) who are looking for them. We help them come "online" as human nodes on the Bitcoin network and build quality connections with other nodes. Building your reputation, showing your proof of work, and nurturing relationships is essential for that. There's plenty of skilled Bitcoiners in the space, but many of them are invisible. When you're looking for work in Bitcoin, sending your CV around as a stranger is the least likely way to be successful. Building your support network and becoming visible will set you up for "being found". That's what we teach during Jobtober. For free. To anyone in the world. If you have a Bitcoin startup or brand that could also use a little more visibility, and you’re offering something that our audience is interested in, collaborate with us as a Jobtober sponsor. Let's have a chat and start a relationship! It’s very affordable and you’re going to help Bitcoin builders find other builders, so our whole ecosystem can become more resilient. Initial details here, and we can share more if it's of interest: Jobtober will live here: jobtober.com
Maybe the maximalism can be a little less toxic from now on, now that everyone has been humbled. HFSP is suddenly not a funny meme anymore.
Imagine living in a world of abundance, collaboration and compassion, where everyone has enough active and passive income streams, and no one feels the need to steal other people’s life savings…
If you're running a #Bitcoin business from Europe, you've probably noticed that accepting bitcoin payments has become considerably more complicated as the final MiCA transition deadline passed in July. We've been a happy #Strike customer in Europe until July, but it's become so bad that we have to leave Strike, because their API simply doesn't work for us anymore and automated payments are completely out the window. We basically have to "attest" every incoming payment before it gets credited, which disrupts the payment process (and the whole purpose of lightning fast payments) and the customer ends up getting an error on their side until we entered the required KYC info about them. This is the case even for zaps of 21 sats or less. It's ridiculous. (I assume the same thing would happen with any other custodian.) The problem is that a) we do not have the info we're supposed to enter about our customers, and b) we consider it none of our business. To solve this, we have now registered #Bitvocation in Wyoming, U.S., to be able to transact more freely in bitcoin and remove all that unnecessary friction (and maybe become a Strike U.S. customer). I had thought of doing this years ago, but the process of registering a business in the U.S. as a foreigner seemed way too bureaucratic and tedious (and required sending a fax - yes really!!) So I never did it. But with this new motivation and necessity I looked into it again and found Bizee.com - a registration agent - and the whole thing went surprisingly smooth and fast! I know many of our European Bitvocation followers might be in the same situation and have side businesses that need a legal home - so I just wanted to share and recommend this agent. Depending on what your situation is, there might be many other benefits to having a business in the U.S., so it's worth looking into. For me, as a digital nomad, it solves a lot friction, and it gives my business a home, while I don't have one. Bizee.com was recommended to me, so I don't seem to be the only happy customer. Check it out, if you need a reliable solution for your business. -- PS - We also have a referral tracking link, if you're happy for us earn a little commission and support Bitvocation this way ---> http://btcjobs.bitvocation.com/bizee)
