A BIG MAC DOESN'T COST $3.99, IT COSTS YOUR HEALTH.
NETFLIX DOESN'T COST $17.99, IT COSTS YOUR TIME.
SOCIAL MEDIA ISN'T FREE, IT COSTS YOUR FOCUS.
THERE IS ALWAYS A HIDDEN COST.
Yo, I went for a run today and listened to Steph Pomboy and Natalie Brunell talk about the recession we’re in.
All I could think about was all the people around me who work fiat jobs, save in fiat, and have no real hard assets.
The founder of Macro Mavens, a renowned economic research firm, says she has LITTLE FIAT in her bank account because she knows the Federal Reserve has ruined this country.
How can you wake up the people around you? How can they not see it?
Sri Lanka is $51 billion in debt to the IMF, World Bank and China. They even had to rent one of their primary ports to china for 99 years to repay a debt.
This is what happens when you let people print whatever money they please.
#Bitcoin can fix this.
That is why they have a bitcoin circular economy in the making…

Last week, only one student came to class.
So today, I was honestly worried that no one would show up. But I came anyway, ready to teach, trying not to let last week’s turnout shake me.
Then, 30 minutes in, three students walked in, eager to learn about #Bitcoin.
Moments like these remind me why I keep showing up, even when it’s hard. https://i.nostr.build/cjFfRR5d0PTKeAjf.jpg
So I woke up today and I listened to the audible version of the white paper.
That made me question myself if I’m really now part of the #bitcoin cult 😂
After one hour of waiting for the students to come, only ONE showed up.
Although Satoshi once said “if you don’t believe me or don’t get it, I don’t have the time to convince you, sorry”
…I do 😅

Today the students are going to turn in their first assignment.
I asked to track how much money they produce VS how much money spend.
I’m curious to see the results.
In 2016, the Indian government declared that the 500 and 1000 rupee bills were no longer legal tender. This left people struggling for weeks and forced people to stop using cash.
Since then, one of the most cash-dominant countries, facilitated the way for CBDCs.
#Bitcoin can stop this.

honestly the immigration system in america is f*cked.
they don't let LEGAL tourists go into the country, yet they give cell phones, shelter, and food to people that cross the border ILLEGALLY on a daily basis.
can someone explain the logic?
the irony is that my cousin got her tourist visa rejected by an immigration officer who was an immigrant himself from cuba.
The long-awaited first BTC Isla graduation happened on July 12, 2024. Four students completed the Mi Primer #Bitcoin curriculum, which consisted of 10 chapters covering the history of money, what Bitcoin is, how Bitcoin works, and what the future holds for Bitcoin.
I wanted to thank every single one of you who helped make this happen. Every single sat went into making the classes possible, buying the materials, and direct deposits into their wallets.
They’ve stacked over 0.0022 BTC, passed a halving, a hurricane, an election, and an ETF approval.

If you don’t know what the deep state is I got you…
The real question is, could #bitcoin break the deep states grip on the world?

It's not that most people are dumb or uneducated. It's that most people are educated enough to believe what they've been taught but not educated enough to question it.
That’s what it means to be a product of your environment.
Don’t believe what everyone else believes just because those around you do.
Do your own research, and then form your own opinion.
I got back home to NO water. Lovely.
Like they say you don’t know what you have until it’s gone.
You don’t realize how much you wash your hands. You don’t realize how many dishes you dirty. You don’t notice how much you go to the bathroom. Until. Your. Water. Is. Gone. 😂
This project aims to proof one thing: creating a #Bitcoin circular economy is possible anywhere.
If we can do it here, why can't this be done everywhere else?
It challenges you to ask not what Bitcoin can do for you, but what you can do for Bitcoin.

We had our second class 🙌
Thank you guys for supporting BTC Isla and being part of the process. It’s crazy to see how far we’ve come. We officially have doubled since our first cohort!
#Bitcoin changes you. Bitcoin is changing them. https://v.nostr.build/q2UKMqp5lsMQR6GI.mp4
Every vote counts fam. If you are outside the US during elections and you can vote, you can vote online.
Obviously voting in person is ideal, but if you can't for some reason be there in person you have TWO days to sign up.

Some think I’m crazy for moving to an island to teach about #bitcoin, especially since I am no bitcoin expert BUT I am passionate about it.
The people on the island make $120 a week, they need sound money more than anyone.

I’m not financing my living there with donations, i do have a day job this is just my passion project. The donations pay the students for the classes and the materials needed. They also pay the merchants when I help them accept bitcoin. They also pay a part time salary to two of the graduates that are helping on board more merchants.

Yo don’t get me wrong, I love what I do but YO I just read a meme that blew my mind:
“when you realize the feminist movement is a government scam so that they can get the other half of the population working so they double the tax intake and raise your children by their standards.”
