Sovereignty, under construction. #NodeRunners

Parts today. Node tomorrow. https://image.nostr.build/943351be94828ee59aac433ff5779d9105246248264cbb836424591330255e8d.jpg

Bitcoin self-custody is one thing. Truly securing it, another.

Ever wonder if your stack is truly future-proof and secure with just one key?

Well, join us at our upcoming #BITDEVS for a hands-on deep dive into #Multisig with

and

to find out!🔒

Nobody teaches you how the #law actually works.

What’s okay, what’s risky, and what quietly becomes illegal overnight?

In this world of gray zones and silent rule changes, it’s time to unfuck your understanding of the law and where #Bitcoin stands in its eyes.

Next #BITDEVS might get... hardware heavy!

Stay tuned: https://lu.ma/bunuadw9

Ohkayyy... Let's #UnfuckTheInternet 🔥 https://image.nostr.build/fd5bf615ac66727c0e905603cc64099a97946feb454bdeafdb4edc8e6fda0a90.jpg https://image.nostr.build/fd5bf615ac66727c0e905603cc64099a97946feb454bdeafdb4edc8e6fda0a90.jpg

Does tech protect the system or you?

This Saturday at #Bitspace, we’re diving into the world of hardware surveillance, firmware backdoors, and how to take back control with

,

, and

A fireside chat for the paranoid, the curious, and the builders.

Sooo how did it gooo? MIND-BLOWING!

It started with curiosity. Quiet room, full attention. People trying to understand something they’ve only ever read about.

CaptainHashrate didn’t talk down or gloss over details, he properly walked us through it with the calm of someone who really knows his craft...

...then the miners turned on.

And what to say, there’s something different about learning when the miner’s right there, running in front of you.

The room quiets down. People lean in.

It’s not theory anymore.

All in all, it was an amazing one.

2 of the #bitaxe are are here. More are on the way... We're getting pumped for the workshop!🔥 Are you?

So, what are we doing this Saturday?

Hmm… good question. How does a #Bitaxe workshop sound?

Well, doesn’t matter how it sounds, because we’re doing it!

Hope you’ve RSVPd: https://lu.ma/8oircnb3

It started like most convos about the #economics do... quiet agreement, half-baked ideas, polite nods.

But by the end, something shifted.

People stopped nodding. They started challenging. They started seeing.

The back-and-forth turned the session into a low-key riot of ideas.

A massive thank you to

for hosting! https://image.nostr.build/8928abc86777c09d2829be8a4220cf28ed3693613dac30cf520ba7d4370b4b1b.jpg https://video.nostr.build/16c885ca6bef8e41f30f6e23218ffa421880f135cd0f493e365fb48ba9ee0853.mp4 https://image.nostr.build/e37bee162847d2d55a53bbe90d356f5b09c37dd28860c55f7745838b29ddffad.jpg https://image.nostr.build/23a89289c0f5381fc22e3c02f5a5fcdbc9c1f225e1bd4fe73cd6890055d96fda.jpg

“Just as studying physics makes you believe in gravity, studying Austrian economics tends to make you believe in liberty.” —

Not your typical #economics 101. This is what we’re unpacking on Saturday 💪🏼

We work hard. Hustle. Save. And yet we're… further behind? WTF? Are we crazy or something?

Well, nope! It's just that the game’s rigged. And we don't know the rules.

Curious what they intentionally left out during the #Economics class?

What a night! 😍 Our #BitcoinMining-focused #BITDEVS yesterday went exceptionally well with so many new faces with us. From mining basics and setups to deep dives into technical wizardry covering stuff like constituents of a block, the probabilities involved in solo and pooled mining, Stratum V1 & V2 and more!

All in all, it was a night full of learning and fun 🧡

Check out the highlights below! 📸

P.S. Thank you to these amazing people for showing up and listening to our miner plebs passionately rant about Bitcoin and Mining for 4 hrs 😄

We kicked things off with @Raj ⚡🌋 / @RajarshiMaitra (RSS Feed) welcoming a bunch of new faces and passionately sharing with the people the vision and mission of @bitshala! He shared more about what we're up to with #Bitspace and our Fellowship program, and how devs can dive into Bitcoin Development with us! 🚀

And then followed @Plebs Together Strong! A massive shoutout to them for dropping by to share their exciting plans for #Bitcoin Education for the Indian masses! 🧡 Along with the plebs, even the new people were super thrilled to hear about what they've been doing in #Goa 🤩

They’ve got some big moves coming 🚀, stay tuned!

Next up, we had @Nihal and Ayush Surana take the stage to break down the basics of #Bitcoin mining. ⚒️ From why mining matters to how it all works with some really cool examples about setups and stuffs, they made it easy to understand and super intriguing.

And then came in the technical wizards: Shreyan, Bala, and Bitaloo. 🤩 They went full geek mode with a deep dive into #Bitcoin mining tech covering all sorts of stuff like the constituents of a block, how a block template is built and mined, the probabilities involved in solo and pooled mining, why it makes sense to mine in a pool, how pools measure a miner's contribution to the pool, different pay-out schemes used by pools, the evolution of pooled mining protocol, the features and issues associated with protocols - getwork, getblocktemplate, Stratum V1 and Stratum V2.

And then we dispersed to have snacks, chat with each other and talk more #Bitcoin

And yes, once again, a huge thanks to all these awesome folks who showed up 🙌 and made it a night to remember!

See you all again at the next one for more #Bitcoin goodness and techie funzzz! 👏
