🧵 We just crossed 25,000 sats sent to readers of The Bitcoin Act through Lightning ⚡
Not sold.
Not farmed.
Not VC-funded “engagement”.
Just sats sent directly to real Bitcoiners for opening and reading the newsletter early.
And honestly…
this is exactly the kind of internet I hoped Bitcoin would create.
2/ Every issue, early openers earn sats ⚡
Read first → earn Bitcoin.
Simple.
No tokens.
No points.
No fake gamification.
Just Lightning working the way it was meant to work.
3/ The coolest part?
People from completely different countries are now:
• learning about Bitcoin law
• earning sats
• using Lightning
• and interacting economically in real time
through a newsletter.
That still blows my mind.
4/ Most newsletters want your attention.
I wanted to build one that actually gives something back.
So instead of:
“consume content”
it became:
“earn and learn.”
5/ We’ve now sent 25,000+ sats directly into the hands of readers ⚡
Tiny payments.
Instant settlement.
Global.
No permission needed.
This is the future Bitcoiners were talking about all along.
6/ And the crazy thing is…
most people STILL haven’t experienced receiving sats over Lightning.
The moment it clicks, you understand Bitcoin differently.
It stops feeling theoretical.
7/ This is exactly why I built The Bitcoin Act.
Twice-weekly Bitcoin legal intelligence + sats for early readers.
No noise.
No influencer garbage.
Just signal ⚡
8/ If you’re already subscribed:
