 Orange pilled a Tuk Tuk in Madeira. 

But like actually orange pilled. 

Me: “Hiya dude,
can I do something a bit weird?”

Dave the Tuk Tuk driver: “it depends.”

Me: “im trying to survive on bitcoin here. Can I pay for your Tuk Tuk in bitcoin?”

Dave: “sure. Wait. are you Joe nakamoto from youtube”?

….

Sorry I realise I don’t have the will to write the rest of this quip in this laborious style coz I’ve spent the whole day filming… 

But basically the Tuk Tuk driver, Dave is a based bitcoiner who watches my videos and said NO to doxxing on camera but YES to being part of the story because he likes my videos but values his privacy. 

So we’re gonna blur his face and not show his lnurl but still make a nice light relief moment of our interaction during the Madeira documentary. 

He did his first lightning transaction with me and we chatted about Uptober fails and bitcoin privacy on the way to the cheese shop. 

Bitcoin sticker went on his Tuk Tuk, we high fived and off he trundled. 

And no, dave isn’t even his real name. Who in portugal is called Dave lol. 

Anyway. How cool is that?!

 Must be exhausting! 
 So cool🤙 
 You’re famous lol 
 Nice!😂 
 So "Dave" was already orange pilled 
 Yes but partly BY my videos 

That’s kinda how I actually orange pilled him. If that makes sense! 
 The Tuk Tuk got a new orange graffiti over night, we have one possible suspect… 🧡 
 We are all Dave🤿 
 George 
 Didn’t know they had Tuk Tuk’s in Portugal 
 lmao fucking Dave  
 😂🤣😂🤣 Dave? Dave’s not here, man. 
 lol I’ve watched a couple of your Docos 
I wish it was that easy to Orange Pill here in Australia. I do feel encouraged by your enthusiasm though. It’s great to be part of a paradigm shift that bitcoin is at my age.
Look forward to your next doco 
 Thanks!! For what it’s worth I have no idea what I’m doing I’m just trying to contribute in any way i can :) 
 We love Dave, whatever his name is.

Dave's such a boring name, let's call him Satoshi instead!
