Invest $3m USD for 3 years and you'll get permanent residency in New Zealand. Only have to be in NZ for 3 weeks during that time too. https://www.immigration.govt.nz/work/visas-for-investing-and-doing-business-in-new-zealand/

In this episode of The Transformation of Value, host Cody Ellingham sits down with Kevin Whitmore from the new Bitcoin Policy Institute NZ. They are engaging with Ministers & Members of Parliament to push for a tax exemption on Bitcoin payments under $1,000. The goal? Fix the compliance nightmare and unlock real financial innovation. Listen here:

A -25% sale on Bitcoin is great, but the chart shows it’s nothing like the -40% to -80% discounts we’ve seen before. Do we still have deeper discounts ahead to look forward to, or is this sale coming to an end? #bitcoin https://blossom.primal.net/fc4e99a247a0eef0e01256858bd207475f33a1c9f7160a1164b86e70377aac42.png

Looking at the chart, it’s clear we’ve passed the bottom and the trend is heading up 🌱 Spring is here, summer next. https://cdn.satellite.earth/e49174cd76ddd4fbdc0a2718cb77dacc7e54e4d649e4b899ce8c1b7b8192f841.jpg

It’s misleading to say Bitcoin “never fulfilled its promise.” Bitcoin was launched in 2008 in direct response to the promises broken by central bankers during the financial crisis. As Satoshi Nakamoto put it: “The root problem with conventional currency is all the trust that’s required to make it work. The central bank must be trusted not to debase the currency, but the history of fiat currencies is full of breaches of that trust.”
On that front, Bitcoin has never failed. It has never been debased, never been bailed out, and never inflated beyond its fixed supply. It is inflation-proof by design. That is the promise it has delivered and continues to deliver.
On payments, Bitcoin now settles trillions annually in final, bearer-asset transfers - something no other system achieves. For everyday use, the Lightning Network handles millions of instant, near-zero-cost transactions, cheaper and faster than Visa or EFTPOS. To dismiss Bitcoin as “speculative” or just “digital gold” ignores its real-world role as both savings and money - from El Salvador to the United States, to meetups here in New Zealand, and even the Bitcoin Basin in Queenstown.
Bitcoin is the only system that offers open, borderless, censorship-resistant digital cash. Far from failing its promise, it is the only form of money that has actually kept its promise.

Yep, that's true! But a lot of places still don’t. Does your local pub accept sats?

If Bitcoin were a large city, about 2,100 square kilometers like Los Angeles or Bangkok, the commonly transacted piece would be like the tip of a ballpoint pen (1 square millimeter). These tiny pieces—often called sats, zaps, or little bits of Bitcoin—are what Bitcoiners zap to each other as tips. For context, a cent is worth about 10 sats, while a dollar is about 1,000 sats.
The "BTC" unit (annoyingly also sometimes called Bitcoin) is 100 million times larger—100 square meters, about the size of a 2-bedroom apartment. And the total area of Bitcoin that will ever exist is 21 million times larger than a BTC and 2,100 trillion times larger than a sat.
But it all adds up to just one Bitcoin. Every sat you zap or BTC trade you make is simply an exchange of different-sized pieces of that one finite #Bitcoin.

2024-12-14 19:52:00 UTC

There's 👏 only 👏 one 👏 #Bitcoin.
You can divide it into 21 million pieces and call them BTC, or into 2100 trillion pieces and call them sats, zaps, or just bits of bitcoin.
No matter what you call them, it all adds up to the same: one true #Bitcoin. There will never be more.

"In 2013, there was a poll taken that asked young people under 35 in this country, are you proud of the United States? 85% said yes.
The same poll taken five months ago, 18% said yes.
So somehow, during the administration of these two presidents, an entire generation of Americans has lost pride in our country and a hope in their own futures. And they they feel that way because they see what's happening.
They can't get into a home. This is the first generation in history in America that is going to live worse lives than their parents.
They see the vitriol that you saw here, the division, the polarization that makes them disgusted with politics.
They're seeing the corrupt merger of state and corporate power that has transformed our agencies from the CIA, health agencies, the environmental agencies, into sock puppets for the industries they're supposed to regulate.
They're seeing the destruction of our soils, the destruction of our air and water.
They're watching this happen, and the politicians do nothing about it except for hate on each other.
If you want more of the same, you should vote for President Biden, President Trump. You know what's going to happen. You know that. They're going to give you four more years of the same stuff.
If you want things to completely change, you're going to support me because I'm going to change everything.
This is a moral battle for the soul of our nation to restore our moral authority around the world by projecting economic power abroad rather than spending $8 trillion on regime change wars that have left every nation we've touched worse off than we found it and restoring our moral authority here at home.
The first day in office -- you heard what they're going to do. You don't even understand it.
Here's what I'm going to do. Day one in office I'm going to issue an executive order saying any federal official who tells a lie to the American public will lose his job.
I'm going to stop the surveillance state.
I'm going to stop the propagandizing by our agencies of of the American public.
I'm going to unravel the war machine.
I'm going to unravel the corrupt merger of state and corporate power.
I know how to do it. I've been litigating against these agencies for years, and I'm uniquely suited to do this.
But I can tell you, I'm going to do these things when I get in there. I'm going to make sure that our Constitution is protected, that AI is deployed to make government more transparent rather than by government to enslave the rest of us.
I'm going to bring AI home and blockchain home because we need these new industries to grow our way out of the debt crisis.
This is something that these two aren't even talking about.
If you want everything to change, you'll support me.
If you want to vote out of fear, you need to support one of those.
Guys, if you want to vote out of hope, out of inspiration, out of pride in your country, out of restoring the moral backbone of our people and our nation, you should vote for me." - Robert F Kennedy Jr #election #kennedy #2024

The absolute worst user experience on the internet today is signing in to 10 different social media clients to upload and share the same piece of content. Thankfully #nostr fixes this. Share the content only once and it will be visible on every client.

When asked today for "Bitcoin wallet recommendations" this is what I responded:
If you want to play around with lightning bitcoin first and get familiar with sending and receiving sats then try a quick custodial option like:
- coinos (web)
- zebedee (mobile)
- wallet of satoshi (mobile).
Once you're ready to up your security then consider trying a convenient self-custodial lightning wallet where the channel management is taken care of for you, e.g.
- Breez (mobile)
- Phoenix (mobile)
- Bitkit (mobile)
When you've saved up enough sats to go onchain then consider getting a hardware signing device (or 3), such as a Jade, seedsigner, coldcard, ledger, trezor and pairing it with an onchain wallet like:
- Sparrow (desktop)
- Green (mobile, desktop)
- Specter (desktop)
To use it privately you'll want to run your own Bitcoin node, which you can do on your windows/macos/linux computer but to keep it in sync you might want to get a dedicated device that you can leave running 24/7. There are specially designed personal server operating systems that make it easy like:
- Umbrel OS
- Start OS
Once you're running your own node you can start experimenting with managing your own lightning channels and using mobile lightning wallet options that you can pair with your node like Zeus.
I've missed out a lot of wallets because I just wrote this quickly off the top of my head, so please do your own research. Personally if I was just starting out today I would play around quickly with coinos on web, then when you have a few sats move them to Breez on mobile, and once you've got a big enough stack to take onchain I would start with a simple set up of a Blockstream Jade + Green wallet (on mobile and desktop). There are plenty of 10% discount codes out there for the Jade, but it still sets you back a little bit so it only makes sense once you've got a bit of savings going. The last code I saw floating around was "ORANGEMART"

I'm a little bit overwhelmed to be honest. There's so much new stuff in Bitcoin lately that I need some time to try it all. I've really enjoyed the using a browser extension to try a bunch of nostr web clients. Everytime I come back and check on a client It has been updated and improved.
