 Crawling under my workload…

But I had a great spontaneous dinner with a bitcoiner 🫂 

And i spent an hour in a blabla car with a Russian girl who knew a fair bit about bitcoin. 

She told me about how she used to see btc donations at the end of Navalny’s videos. She was fiercely anti Putin. 

And that a Russian friend of hers in Cologne uses bitcoin to send money to her family in Blagoveshchensk (Благовещенск)

Amazing innit.  I’d never heard of that place before and it’s bloody miles away. 

Bitcoin is everywhere and nowhere. 

Anyway. 

Hello from Lugano 🇨🇭 

Another big day tomorrow. Love and strength 💜 
 Have a great conf, can’t make it this year. Sure it will be a blast though!!
