Bitcoin protects against INFLATION so WHY is it falling when CPI is so high? https://t.co/iVV0KPxjlh

@austincampbell @JamielSheikh Thanks for sharing Austin. Sorry for the loss of your friend

I met with Jamiel in the past week over zoom. Really open and warm interaction.

Sending regards to his family. His daughters in particular

This past weekend, I had the privilege of visiting @BitcoinEkasi in Mossel Bay, and what an inspiring experience!

Bitcoin Ekasi began as a surf school teaching kids from the local township. Thanks to founder Hermann’s discovery of Bitcoin, it has transformed into something extraordinary. Surf coaches are now paid in Bitcoin, and kids earn Bitcoin for attending lessons, encouraging them to save rather than spend. This shift has fostered a long-term mindset and reduced frivolous spending—a powerful example of Bitcoin’s grassroots impact.

It’s worth remembering: while many in townships lack bank accounts, most have phones. Opening a Bitcoin wallet requires only a phone and internet connection, unlike traditional banking, which demands proof of address and ID—barriers for many.

Bitcoin Ekasi has also tapped into the global Bitcoin community, receiving funding and donations from across the world. Driving through the township, I saw shops proudly accepting Bitcoin, with locals earning small monthly incomes through advertising partnerships with global Bitcoin companies. Luthando, a key leader, has inspired other merchants to adopt Bitcoin, spreading its benefits even further.

The ripple effects are undeniable—uplifting the community and providing access to a savings vehicle and a global network of support. Witnessing Bitcoin’s tangible impact on lives has me thinking about how similar initiatives could transform other communities in South Africa and beyond.

If you’re curious about Bitcoin Ekasi, I encourage you to learn more and donate on their website. And if you’re ever in Mossel Bay, visit Herman, Luthando, and the team. They’re doing something truly special.

@justinspratt My fee is capped as an early user so I don't have to factor that in. UI definitely needs improvement. I guess as an early user I have seen the content emerge, making it slightly less cumbersome to navigate

Great thread on @aantonop - the best personality in this space

I remember meeting him in person in 2016. I don't think I have ever been star-struck like that.

As passionate, sincere, knowledgeable and generous in person as he is in his videos. What a hero and example to live up to

Anyone wanting to learn more should start watching his videos

"As the crypto market burned off its speculative froth, the value of these assets [was] revealed: Properly secured cryptoassets provide a hedge against the inherent challenges & shortcomings of the conventional financial system." — Rob Price, CFA, @SMC_rob https://t.co/ZOmK4wjEdD

It is great to work with CFA Institute and dispel a few key misunderstandings about crypto

>Bitcoin has decoupled from equity confirming that it is not high-beta equity

>FTX created a toxic perception but this was the opportunity to look closer

Late last year, the mood around crypto had soured, and long-time skeptics were busy writing its epitaph.

But crypto’s performance in the first half of 2023 has revealed an asset class with resilience, says Rob Price, CFA.

Contrary to the popular narrative, the FTX debacle has more to do with fractional reserve banking than it does with crypto, Rob Price, CFA, contends.

@Graeme_Tennant Great call Graeme!

What was the most telling thing about this chart that triggered your decision?

While painful, FTX’s scandalous fraud does not reflect on the underlying technology, and it galvanizes people to return to the principles of crypto https://t.co/3eYG5t1niB

Valuable video from Eric Wall on ETH's increased censorship risks since shifting to PoS.

How big a problem is it and what can be done about it?
