Just now, someone purchased a Satoshi plush that is being sold at Promenade, a cafรฉ in Korea, and the payment arrived in Bitcoin!
It's truly convenient to have money that can be used the same way all around the world.
Bitcoin knows no borders ๐
Today I worked on cutting the fabric for the ALEX plushies.
For the black fabric, I have to mark the pattern pieces with a white pen, which is surprisingly tricky. In fact, it takes more than twice as long as working with other fabric colors ๐๏ธ
I received an order from Agile Energy X, a Japanese company working at the intersection of renewable energy and Bitcoin mining, to make five ALEX plushies.
Today, the first one was completed! ๐ฒ
Today I made an eel and chicken rice bowl.
In Japan, eel is considered a good food for beating summer heat and fatigue, but it's quite expensive, so I can't afford enough to really fill me up. Instead, I cooked it teriyaki-style with chicken and enjoyed them over rice. ๐
Today I made Hiyashi Chuka, a Japanese cold noodle dish.
In Japan, more restaurants start serving Hiyashi Chuka when summer arrives. It's light and refreshing, making it especially appealing on hot days ๐
I received an order for an ALEX plush from Agile Energy X, so I'll be starting production next week!
Today, I did some preparation work, including embroidering the face and wings ๐งต

Today I worked on my website and made an Orange Pill pencil case.
Compared to my other cases, this one requires a lot more sewing, but I like the rounded shape that gives it a handmade feel๐
During a presentation at the FREE Energy Summit, I was surprised to see Mr. Tateiwa from Agile Energy X introducing the ALEX plush I made! ๐ฒ
Iโm very happy that ALEX was brought all the way to Portugal, far from Japan ๐

Today, I made a Genesis Block pouch while also working on improving my handmade goods website.
My website had been quite cluttered before, but I think Iโve managed to make it much cleaner over the past few days ๐ป
Local Satoshi plush ๐ญ
Iโve now made 10 different designs!
Iโll continue collaborating with shops, communities, and events around the world to show that Bitcoin knows no borders.

@yesbitcoinhaiti Actually, I looked into BTCPay Server yesterday, but I decided to put it on hold for now because setting up my own server is difficult, and it was also hard to choose a trusted hosting provider.
Thank you for letting me know!
Today, I worked on adding payment functionality to my website, but unfortunately it seems too difficult for me.
I canโt afford more paid services, and I also want to avoid KYC...
In the end, I decided to continue with my current method of communicating directly through messages.
Hmmโฆ maybe, in a way, directly communicating with people who want to buy something, sending a Lightning invoice, and completing the purchase that way might actually feel more P2P.
Thatโs what I was thinking about today.
Although Bitcoin is money anyone can use, creating an e-commerce site that accepts Bitcoin still doesnโt feel easy for everyone right now.
I once paid for a VPS and built one myself, but since the site got zero purchases, I stopped fairly quickly.
