🚨 Mission accomplished. Today we drove to the Flemish Parliament in Brussels, to deliver all 124 copies 📚 of the Bitcoin Standard (dutch version) written by Dr. Saifedean Ammous They were delivered at the main secretariat of the parliament and this friendly lady will drop a copy in the postbox of each representative. So imagine how they will react finding this book 👀 today or tomorrow.
Flanders is a part of Belgium that has 6.7 million inhabitants. They have partial fiscal autonomy, representing 32% of their budget. But the Flemish MPs are also part of parties that are active at the national level. So hopefully they can spread some #bitcoin❤️
Maybe someone wants to do the same action for the national parliament or the Walloon or Brussels Region.
Many thanks to everyone who contributed or supported us.

Our Izindlovu Fund got assistance from Bitcoin Ekasi to explain Bitcoin to the Black Mambas and Transfrontier Africa in South-Africa. Much appreciated and more news to come as we try to get them onto a Bitcoin Standard.

I'm a Bitcoiner and a Wildlife and Nature Conservationist. This is my house current energy production.
Why do people freak out about Bitcoin mining. As if nothing else and less useful what you do consumes energy?

A lot of controversy arose around the « Skull of Satoshi » sculpture that Benjamin Von Wong made on behalf of Greenpeace. Today March 25, 2023 Von Wong posted a Twitter thread that I think is worth sharing with as many people as possible.
The article below holds the transcript of the 17 tweets that I recommend you to read, because it’s full of surprises.
Respect to Von Wong for staying open-minded in the face of an intense debate and criticism of his creation.
Way less respect for Greenpeace, who took money from Ripple co-founder Chris Larsen to set up an anti-bitcoin campaign while deliberately concealing all good information about bitcoin mining.
In the end, bitcoiners will prove that mining is not damaging our planet, on the contrary.

At the end of March, a JAN3 delegation will meet with Costa Rica policy makers to discuss technicals about eventual Reventazón bonds.
Reventazón is a river in Costa Rica, and the Reventazón dam was inaugurated on 16 September 2016. It’s primary purpose is the production of hydroelectric power with a capacity of 305.5 MW and providing power for 525.000 homes.
Excess green energy could be used for mining bitcoin and allow for the issuance of the Reventazón bonds, similar to the El Salvador Volcano Bonds.
Do you have excess green energy in your country? Use it to mine bitcoin and issue bonds. Get in contact with us.
