YES! Itβd be a convenient (and gorgeous) location for people in Africa, Middle East, and even Europeans.
Plus, Iβd take any excuse to go back to Morocco π
+1 Marrakech is incredible!
In for Morocco β¦ Iβd love to go back β¦
Good prices over there as well!! π just thinking thatβs too early, might be better to do it after nostrasia

Hahaah I wanna go so badddd
I spent 3mths in Morocco in 2000 was so good. ππ²π¦
The only one I ever had to place in space.
LFG
#[12]β can vouch for Morocco - I didnβt three months there in 2000.
Great food, scenery and a lifestyle shift that suits the sentiment.
From the coast to ancient cities like Fez, Rabat & Marrakech (nicer than Casablanca too)
Morocco has it all plus pumping right handers as far as the eye can see in Taghazout πππ
Canβt waitttt!! Weβre gonna set it up for after nostrasia!! Youβre welcomed to join us n help us if youβd like π«ππ

Japan makes very little sense to me, particularly when thereβs an actual Bitcoin hub in the Phillipines with hundreds of merchants onboarded, where the locals speak English (good luck communicating with the Japanese), where the weather and scenery is way better and everything is much cheaper.
Flight is cheaper too but yeah will never understand lol
Very culturally rich, very contrasting & some cool experiences β¦ for some weird reason they are CRAZY about a Mexican football player from back in the day β¦ also, best orange juice Iβve ever had β¦
π€πΌ
Only makes sense π
This is a great idea

#[11]β this is next after Asia π€
Sounds dope. My dad used to own a Moroccan restaurant. Really dope food.
Thatβs awesome! Hopefully after nostrasia we can do it π
I am in and willing to support π₯
Marrakech is beautiful and probably the best place to do this within Morocco π²π¦.
Flight βοΈ to Morocco for most folks probably better Casablanca, then 3 hour train distance to Marrakech.
Going there this summer! Getting more enthusiastic after seeing this note.
Love this!
I see you already joined the telegram group!! ππππ«π lfgooo!
Lmk how your experience goes!! And if you meet any Bitcoiners out there!! π«
Yes Sir π«‘
High hopes that itβll happen π« itβs a no brainer and so many can see that! π
When thereβs a will thereβs always a way π€πΌ
Exactly!! And we have the BEST Will #[6]β so thereβs def a way π«π
#[12]β #[13]β Probably of interest for French community as well π«Άπ½π€πΎπ

OΓΉ par exemple au Maroc?;J'y reviens d'un sΓ©jour ? Casablanca pourrait Γͺtre un lieu appropriΓ© ou Tanger plus frais. Si vous avez besoin
@Boutaina @jack je pourrais via direct comment je pourrais Γ©ventuellement comment je pourrais vous aider dans l'organisation de vos diffΓ©rents sΓ©jours . Pourquoi faire des forfaits groupe et individuels vers n'importe quelle destination en faisant appel Γ une de mes formations antΓ©rieures dans le Tourisme prΓ©cisΓ©ment pour l'organisation de voyages pour des sociΓ©tΓ©s et personalities sans oublier mes propres goΓ»ts Γ barouder mais avec tout ce que j'ai besoin en termes de confortπππ€²
Yo i back this idea!
#[12]β π
Lfgoooo!! π«π this is definitely happening!! Too many frens know this is the way!!
tataaaaaaaaa π we all gotta meeet π«
I would 1000% show up for Nostrocco. Letβs make it happen!
Definitely looks rad.
+ affordable!! Best of both worlds π
Good idea
You should do it in Tunisia!! It's in north africa too, it's cheaper than Morocco (I live there π
)
Itβs all #[2] idea, she mentioned it first right after Nostrica finished in a reply to what the next place should be, but wasnβt seen or heard.. glad I made this note n was louder about it π« really hope to meet you in #Nostrocco
Lil Jon wants his skeets back #blueskue #skeet
Just need to solve that tiny problem regarding Bitcoin in Moroccoβ¦
I mean thereβs an unconference happening in Hong Kongβ¦ and itβs the same thing happening over there so idk I donβt see an issue specially since itβs nostr not bitcoin
Letβs keeep it lowkey that weβre all Bitcoiners and Iβm sure weβll be good hahaah pay with bitrefill prepaid Visa cards hahaah
Visa KYC?
i especially like being taken hostage during my vacations. that's my absolute fave part of the entire thing.
africa doesn't need you. what a coloniser mindset.
conferences are a waste of time and money, and entry points for pyramid schemes.
My bad, itβs Mastercard and βNon-registered limits of 200 USD per card. Registered limits of 500 USD per card. Verified user limits of 1,000 USD per card, up to 10,000 USD per day.β
I just grab a couple of the $200 not registered and use em together
Bitrefill
Buy Virtual Prepaid Mastercard with Bitcoin or Crypto (VCC)
Bitrefill (United States) - Shop for Gift Cards, eSIMs, and Mobile Recharges with BTC, ETH, USDT, USDC, and more. Pay online with crypto in over 18...
Pura vida to Morocco π₯
structuring then?
jk jk
Trolls π§ are welcome, we are a happy pyramid π
I recall buying one of these ($20 or something) and MC asked for my meatspace address on redemption. Do they still do that?
itβs an uncoference sir, something you know nothing about π«‘
move on
If you donβt think Africa needs Nostr, then who do you think needs it ??
Some people need more π€π» with a touch of π« and it shows.
Exactly! I shouldnβt have replied lol I just noticed their replies are very troll like and contribute nothing to anyone smhh lol
This is the same person that said it was weird for us to be hugging in Miami two weeks ago. π€£
I hugged so many people my muscles grew that weak. #gains
We talked about this at the first beach party I believe? It sounds like a great idea. I personally don't know if I'd go as I cannot keep travelling all over the world, but I would encourage others to do so if they can and support this with all of my π« and π€π».
Hahaah what a fucking joke π€£π€£π€£ canβt stand ppl like that
2024!!! & super cheap flights + nightly stay!! + bitcoin price will surge!! You gon be gooood!!! Happy max biddddinggg my fren π«
ikr. #[13]β we may need to sell our house at this rate.
Iβm fine with that. #nostrnomads
This sounds like a dream π±
i am indeed that same person -
unlike jack, i will fuck you right back. and i will discuss the white paper in the spirit of satoshi and how the blockchain is outside it's intent. also, almost all conversations surrounding the blockchain and bitcoin are now for-profit schemes masked in jargon like "unconference". if you are not prepared to have that kind of conversation, don't begin an interaction with me. accuracy is not trolling: it's holding rhetoric and pretentious narratives to accountability when they have the profound ability to harm.
Wouldnβt say itβs a problem.
Holding is not illegal. Accepting it for merchants / sellers is right now not allowed, thatβs true. But the central bank of Morocco is currently re-considering the whole thing. Hopefully for the good of the moroccon people. Letβs see.
But as #[12]β said, itβs about #Nostr, a simple protocol ππ€·ββοΈ
I did ! And Iβm proud of you bringing the idea up πππ«
Definitely! Morocco is quite known in France for being a cheap destination - cheap money wise, because there's nothing cheap with the landscapes, cuisine and soul of this country! Also there's a big Moroccan diaspora in France.
The only thing I'm not so sure about is the State's stance on Bitcoin π
Dans cette option passez Γ Casablanca quand j'y Γ©tais rΓ©cemment, j'ai vraiment pensΓ© Γ Nostrica et Nostrasia tout en sachant en dΓ©cembre 2022 qu'il y a eu 2 confΓ©rences Bitcoin (Ghana a Γ©tΓ© une rΓ©ussite je l'avais suivie via Twitter , pour le SΓ©nΓ©gal moins du fait du dΓ©filΓ© Chanel en mΓͺme temps, attention aux moments d'incertitudes geopoli tiques et dΓ©mocrati ques que vivent les citoyens de cette partie de l'Afrique Mali Niger... ) beaucoup de discours anti occident et dΓ©sinformation. .. Ce qui n'empΓͺche pas
que les jeunes d'Afrique sont prΓͺts et d'autres se forment dans le domaine ..
Pour le Maroc mΓͺme si c'est moins onΓ©reux et fΓ©erique il faudra bien vΓ©rifier si le cadre juridique de 2017 ait changΓ©. Le roi a tous les pouvoirs il me semble qu'il y a toujours une circulaire diffusΓ©e Γ l'Γ©poque attirait l'attention du public sur les risques associΓ©s Γ l'utilisation des monnaies virtuelles, dont principalement l'absence de protection du consommateur, la volatilitΓ© du cours de change de ces monnaies virtuelles contre une devise ayant cours lΓ©gal, outre l'utilisation .

with language barriers come natural translations all issues but when translation is done through computerised programs, nuance is lost. french is notoriously layered in its nuanced meaning, but is also very literal; add in regional usecase, you have a perfect storm of potential for misunderstanding between english and french. and that's just one language. when coded jargon is translated, especially in "trusted" cases like with the Bitcoin conversation, mucin of the african uptake has occurred because of a complete misunderstanding of the application, use, and scaffolded power relinquishment which occurs. many remote local use cases of Bitcoin are translated twice before they are translated into local dialects from english to french then to african dialect. the most acute problem with the Bitcoin rollout in africa is the complete disconnect between the actuality of its meaning and the manner in which it has been sold to those who have adopted. it is not a sustainable currency system in the way in which its been promoted, nor is it being peddled as such. and, notably, nor is it the intent of the (b)itcoin white paper. Bitcoin as finance offshoot protocols merely use jargon and comprehension gaps to exploit unmined populations. these are not (b)itcoin behaviours. they are identity and consciousness mining theft rings. plain and simple. literal description of what these processes are fronting is a protection against a new age of exploitation in the form of digital colonialism.
Beautiful
Morocco sounds like a wonderful choice!!π²π¦ππ
One of the beautiful things about nostr world unconferences is the possibility of discovering different places on earth, and, at the same time, coming to a location that may be closer to fellow nostriches living in other parts of the world.
As you point out, it is also a way of bringing awareness to nostr, in places where it may be most likely to catch on, due to the openness and need of different solutions. In the process, we also discover unique nostr voices.
I love the idea of going to Africa next. Any location will have benefits and tradeoffs.
Are you familiar with Morocco? I love its architecture, but I have never been there.
I know the stories we hear can be binary in nature and cannot reflect the entirety of a place, nor its beauty and complexity.
It is always key to have local input and to take into account possible issues in order to provide solutions. As a woman, sometimes traveling alone, I know I need to be made aware of cultural norms, places deemed safe, areas to avoid, situations to expect, how best to deal with possible issues...
I completely agree!! Love what you said! #[2] had the idea! Sheβs from there and has family down there to help us set things into motion! Iβd love for you to join the telegram where we will be organizing and discussing the planning of this event! π«

Yes I'm already making contacts down there.
Thank you. π inside knowledge. Grateful to Boutaina for coming up with the idea and for both of you for taking the initiative.
It felt like a no brainer and completely aligned with me π«π
great idea, canβt wait!π
June because most schools are out by June and most chools start up again late Aug early sept.
Serai intΓ©ressΓ©e, j'y Γ©tais de fin avril jusqu'en mai sur cette mΓͺme pΓ©riode,
il y avait beaucoup de touristes occidentaux et americains du fait des jours fΓ©riΓ©s... surtout Γ Marrakech et Fes moins qu'Γ Casablanca ou Rabat qui sont eus une influence europΓ©enne...
Par ailleurs je vous invite Γ bien consulter en termes de vΓ©rification la kegislation marocaine notamment sur la cryptomonnaie. Au plaisir. Bon dimanche ππ½
Hereβs an update Jack π«‘
Date & City figured out
Next is the main location once we have an idea of how much interest there is
View quoted note βAlso
@jack mallers youβre more than welcomed brother! Would be great to have the both of you on a panel together or something π we can discuss further closer to the event π€
Hope to see you at #Nostrocco in March π«π²π¦
