@BobLoukas Yea i couldn't agree more gents. We are all on the same journey. Have been for 9 years now. Thank you Bob!

[Bitcoin Lagoon @BitcoinLagoon]

@BobLoukas @BobLoukas been following for 8 years ... funny how all these new profiles are telling you "wrong time" 🤣 if they only knew your strategy and watched all the 4 year cycle journey videos. It has literally been a journey. Your videos always provide clarity and calm at crazy times

[Bitcoin Lagoon @BitcoinLagoon]

@BobLoukas Looking so forward to the next video. The previous one said we may have e a left translated cycle now...but im hoping this one confirms we are still in the 4 year cycle and the bull market commences next year again, slowly at first and then tops in 2029.

@BitcoinOrania Nou praat jy! Dit het julle lank genoeg gevat. Maar dis lekker om te sien julle is nou daar. Dit sal julle dorp verander van n dorp na n stad toe. Solank ons kan nog kom jag en braai, is die saak reg!💪🧡😎🥂

[Wallet of Satoshi @walletofsatoshi]

Wallet of Satoshi POS (our Point of Sale app for businesses) is getting an upgrade.

Soon, any POS currently using a custodial Wallet of Satoshi address will stop accepting payments.

To keep accepting Bitcoin, just set up a self-custody Wallet of Satoshi address. It only takes a minute.

Why?

Global government reporting requirements for custodial services keep getting worse. Rather than collect your data, we’re moving POS to something better:

⚡ Self-custody
🔒 More private
🌍 Available globally

The technology is ready, and we think this is a better future for Bitcoin payments.

Thanks for accepting Bitcoin with Wallet of Satoshi!

Good morning @ElsalvadoronX 👋☕️

@nayibbukele @bitcoinofficesv

Your Excellency,

How has El Salvador’s regulatory framework enabled and protected its citizens who hold and use Bitcoin and crypto assets? What role do the Treasury and Central Bank play in balancing citizen adoption with national Bitcoin strategy?

The South African National Treasury has published the draft Capital Flow Management Regulations, 2026. As private citizens, we are concerned about its implications, particularly for those holding Bitcoin/crypto assets.

We would value your guidance and support in opening a dialogue with our National Treasury and South African Reserve Bank.

Thank you for pioneering citizen-first Bitcoin policy!

🇿🇦💙🇸🇻

A request to all members who contribute funds to @afriforum monthly. Ask them if they are planning on fighting the draft regulations seeking to criminalize self custody of crypto and gold? This is the time to speak up.

[Bitcoin Ekasi @BitcoinEkasi]

🚨 The South African government is attempting to OUTLAW FINANCIAL FREEDOM.

🚫 Under the guise of "capital flow management," new draft regulations will effectively destroy self-custody and Bitcoin's promise of financial inclusion in our country.

🇿🇦 These aren't just rules for exchanges. They are a direct attack on EVERY South African.

Here’s what they do:

‼️ BAN SELF-CUSTODY: By targeting transactions that touch global network infrastructure, they make self-custody illegal.

‼️ FORCE LIQUIDATION: They grant the state the power to force the sale of Bitcoin to the National Treasury. This is expropriation.

‼️ OUTLAW CIRCULAR ECONOMIES: Peer-to-peer transactions for goods and services will be deemed "black market" activity if they exceed an unspecified threshold.

‼️ GIVE THE STATE ARBITRARY POWER: The Minister can decide the "threshold" for illegality at any time, creating uncertainty for everyone.

✊ This is a war on open, permissionless money. It's a war on the unbanked. It's a war on your right to control your own wealth.

📜 And they're trying to do it WITHOUT A VOTE IN PARLIAMENT.

⏳ The deadline for public objection is either May 18 or June 10, depending on which government source is consulted.

We have no time to waste.

If you are in South Africa, take some time to read this.

They are coming after self custody.
This is a war on your freedom.

Make some noise and submit your rejection.

Cole explains the situation beautifully! Check it out. Make sure to comment.

[Cole 🇿🇦 @ColeTU]

South Africa’s new regulations are an attack on Bitcoin.

You must declare your holdings, get permission to use your crypto, and hand over your private keys on demand.

Here’s everything you need to know - and how to fight back.

[Paco de la India @RunwithBitcoin]

Amazing! #Bitcoin goes up and somehow my life gets 25% harder.

Started my Geyser campaign when Bitcoin was around $ 65K, right after the Middle East situation escalated, and I thought I was being clever by building in a 10% downside buffer so I wouldn’t get caught off guard.

@RunwithBitcoin @geyserfund Loving the mustache Paco!

It's only the 1st of May...

Coincidence? I think not! 👇

The Expropriation Act already exist for immovable property (like your farm or house), add the new (draft) Capital Flow Management Regulation 2026 that replaces the Exchange Control Regulations of 1961 and you basically get expropriation without compensation for any capital (movable property) that you have then add that the right to safety and self-defence (owning a firearm) is also under attack with the Firearms Control Amendment Bill (FCAB) 2025.

Immovable property under attack = Expropriation Act 13 of 2024
Movable property under attack = draft Capital Flow Management Regulation of 2026
Right to safety and self-defence = Firearms Control Amendment Bill (FCAB) of 2025

We’ve reached the limit of onboarding through explanation alone.

The people who respond to theory - monetary policy, sovereignty, inflation - they're already here. That wave is done.

The next wave will not be onboarded through words.

They'll be onboarded through demonstration.

A simple purchase.
Milk at a corner store.
Everyday transactions.
That’s what makes Bitcoin real.
And when Bitcoin does something fiat can’t - that’s when it clicks.

Education still matters, it is crucially important - but it follows demonstration, not the other way around.

And this is why circular economies matter.

They are live proof:
Earn in sats.
Spend in sats.
Repeat.

Nothing demystifies Bitcoin faster than using it.

And that’s exactly what we’re doing. We’re building simple, real-world demonstrations:

👉Daily #SPEDN videos - real transactions, not staged.
👉Kids earning sats through rewards programs.
👉A thrift store priced entirely in sats.
👉An old-school arcade machine - scan, tap, pay with sats, play.

No theory. No abstraction.
Just Bitcoin, working.

Stop explaining Bitcoin.
Start showing it.

Quantum concern on Bitcoin is a psyop.
