Data source: https://stats.nostr.band/ NIPs --- **[nip99 e-commerce use case extension](https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nips/pull/1784)** nostr:npub1gmmrkec8een5jelrxq5rz260nqzpnj45yzznpaerqv0yma3s86gqpfe2h0 is proposing nip99 e-commerce use case extension. This pull request simply adds a link to the specification we are developing and have consensus on, allowing other developers who want to implement NIP-99 for e-commerce to discover how the major developers are approaching it. In this way, we ensure that NIP-99 remains lightweight and allows for broad use cases while also providing guidance for the e-commerce use case that is currently prevalent. **[add "global" relay lists](https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nips/pull/1786)** nostr:npub180cvv07tjdrrgpa0j7j7tmnyl2yr6yr7l8j4s3evf6u64th6gkwsyjh6w6 is proposing "global" relay lists that streamlines the b/c process by standardizing it across multiple apps and also by allowing these lists to be shared, so when the relays that were hardcoded (and that were, at the time of the hardcoding, known to be such public squares) get shut down then clients can automatically or manually switch to new ones. **[[NIP 53 Addendum] - Add Interactive Rooms, Meetings, and Live Presence.](https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nips/pull/1789)** nostr:npub18pudjhdhhp2v8gxnkttt00um729nv93tuepjda2jrwn3eua5tf5s80a699 is proposing that add Interactive Rooms and Meetings, and Live presence to NIP-53. Kind 30312 (Interactive Rooms), Kind 30313 (Meetings), Kind 10312 (Room Presence). These Kinds would apply to interactive audio/video platforms such as Hivetalk version 2.0 (not public yet) and Nostr Nests. **[NIP-5E: Censorship Resistant Live Streams](https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nips/pull/1790)** [v0l](https://github.com/v0l) is proposing a way to distribute live video streams via Nostr. "Live Video" in this context implies segmented video streams like HLS or DASH. Each segment of the stream is a NIP-94 event which describes where the file can be found and its hash. **[Add birth field to NIP-24 for birth date representation](https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nips/pull/1793)** nostr:npub12egp0pvh2f0fp6sk5nt6ncehqzkz8zsma8dl8agf8p3f98v6resqku4w26 is proposing a PR that introduces the birth field to NIP-24, allowing users to specify their birth date. The goal is to enable applications to celebrate users' birthdays and allow other users to notice and join in the celebration, enhancing social interactions.Defined the format as [day, month, year (optional)]. The year is optional to accommodate users who prefer not to disclose their age. **[NIP-05: add dynamic server recommendation](https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nips/pull/1794)** nostr:npub1q3sle0kvfsehgsuexttt3ugjd8xdklxfwwkh559wxckmzddywnws6cd26p is proposing NIP-05 services who let people sign up for a NIP-05 name are recommended to make the names unique case insensitive. **[Add delegation to nip 46](https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nips/pull/1795)** [Staab](https://github.com/staab) is proposing PR that adds a delegation command to NIP 46, which allows applications that are already authorized to create new sessions with limited permissions. My use case for this is sharing a read-only session with push- or email- notification servers, which can only sign kind 22242 events on behalf of the user, in order to get access to auth-gated relays. **[Add notifiers nip](https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nips/pull/1796)** [Staab](https://github.com/staab) updates NIP: XXX - Push Notifiation with the following differences: It uses parameterized replaceable events, which allows for multiple subscriptions to exist at the same time；It uses NIP 44 encryption rather than NIP 04；It uses filters rather than ad-hoc targets；It uses delegated authentication in order to gain access to gated relays；It uses a different mechanism for pausing notifications and auto-expiring pauses. **[NIP-22: Format should follow scope](https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nips/pull/1797)** nostr:npub1gcxzte5zlkncx26j68ez60fzkvtkm9e0vrwdcvsjakxf9mu9qewqlfnj5z is proposing This adds some flexibility in formatting styles for NIP-22. Since this NIP is always used inside a scope (another NIP), formatting rules SHOULD be defined by that NIP. Examples: If the Comment is replying to a markdown-based NIP, it should allow markdown. If the Comment is replying to an asciidoc-based NIP, it should allow asciidoc. **[NIP-34!: use NIP-22 thread style for patch and status events](https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nips/pull/1799)** nostr:npub15qydau2hjma6ngxkl2cyar74wzyjshvl65za5k5rl69264ar2exs5cyejr created this as part of reviewing #1744. For the status event, references to merged patch events are done using the q tag even though the they are not included in content. This is because NIP-22 only supports the use of e reference for the parent event id. **[NIP90: Add Ping/Pong to DVMs](https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nips/pull/1808)** [believethehype](https://github.com/believethehype) introduces kind 7007 (ping) to send a small request to a dvm to check if it is alive. The DVM replies with a kind 7000 feedback event and status pong, and optional information in content. This allows clients to test if a dvm is alive without sending an actual job request to the dvm.

long-form articles have been published, including over 79 articles on Bitcoin and more than 42 related to Nostr, accounting for 26% of the total content. These articles about Nostr mainly explore its potential as a decentralized, censorship-resistant communication protocol, contrasting it with traditional social media platforms like Facebook and X. They discuss Nostr’s ability to foster free speech, privacy, and security while providing a foundation for new applications, including encrypted messaging (such as the use of the Double Ratchet Algorithm in NIP-117 and NIP-118), decentralized identity management, and anonymous event relaying (as proposed in "Renoters"). Several pieces, including "The Advancement of the Nostr Protocol," highlight recent technical advancements, developer tools like Nostr SDK, and practical use cases for Bitcoin applications. Others, criticize centralized platforms for their control over user data and content moderation policies. Additionally, topics like relay setup, voting systems, and AI alignment with human values are explored, emphasizing Nostr’s broader applications beyond social media. These Bitcoin articles explore adoption, investment strategies, security, privacy, and their impact on global finance. Many highlight Bitcoin’s role in fostering financial resilience in Zimbabwe, rural economies, and the importance of user adoption over merchant adoption. Investment discussions cover DCA strategies, ETF influence, and ways to maximize returns. Privacy and security topics emphasize decentralization, self-custody, and best practices to protect assets. Bitcoin is framed as an alternative to fiat, with critiques of traditional finance and central banking. Geopolitical discussions examine the IMF’s influence, France’s fiscal crisis, and El Salvador’s Bitcoin policy. Technical innovations, such as EVM integration, Lightning Network advancements, and multi-payment solutions, continue to expand the Bitcoin ecosystem, driving broader adoption and usability.

Attempts to artificially inflate demand for Bitcoin—whether through ordinals for 'crypto' people, ETFs for institutional investors, or Bitcoin Strategic Reserves (BSR) for states—for purposes other than self-sovereign savings and payments, will almost always backfire. The reasons you use to onboard people to Bitcoin can often be the same reasons they eventually decide to leave. While it's true that this process can lead to incremental improvements in user education, it also subjects actual Bitcoin users to considerable volatility, a defining characteristic of the Bitcoin user journey. Simply put, all pro-Bitcoin narratives appear strong when prices are rising and weak when they are falling. So, **what do the Bitcoin users actually know** better than tourists that enable them to outlast the madness of the crowds? https://media.tenor.com/QHPiPY42oR0AAAAC/benbvolliefde-b%26bvolliefde.gif Unlike tourists, Bitcoin users **know** that bitcoin itself is not volatile; rather, it's the valuation expressed in fiat currency that experiences volatility. They **know** that Bitcoin is not something to be blindly trusted but something to be verified. They **know** that nothing out there beats running and using your own node. They **know** that their self-custody setup is solid. They **know** that Lightning works, offering incredible UX advancement in web payments. Additionally, they **know** how Nostr empowers exploration of new frontiers on the web, revealing traditional tech infrastructures for what they truly are. And there is so much more. Yet most importantly, **Bitcoin users know they ARE IN CHARGE** of creating a new world. Individual agency has been reclaimed, and it matters greatly. Anyone who is aware of this shift will embrace it wholeheartedly and will be reluctant to relinquish it, if ever. Bitcoin is not a quest of telling what people should value; it's a journey of **discovering the value of time well spent**—a life worth living. https://i.nostr.build/0TdM9A3rzm6BSElE.png

## The Key Pair What a Nostr key pair has by default: * A unique ID * A name * A description * An ability to sign stuff ## The Relay What a Nostr relay has (or should have) by default: * Permissions, Moderation, AUTH, ... * Pricing & other costs to make the above work (cost per content type, subscriptions, xx publications per xx timeframe, ...) * List of accepted content types * (to add) Guidelines ## The Community Since I need Communities to have all the above mentioned properties too, the simplest solution seems to be to just combine them. And when you already have a key pair and a relay, you just need the third basic Nostr building block to bring them together... ## The Event To create a #communikey, a key pair (The Profile) needs to sign a (kind 30XXX) event that lays out the Community's : 1. Main relay + backup relays 2. Main blossom server + backup servers 3. (optional) Roles for specific npubs (admin, CEO, dictator, customer service, design lead, ...) 4. (optional) Community mint 5. (optional) "Welcome" Publication that serves as an introduction to the community This way: * **any existing npub** can become a Community * Communities are not tied to one relay and have a truly unique ID * Things are waaaaaay easier for relay operators/services to be compatible (relative to existing community proposals) * Running one relay per community works an order of magnitude better, but isn't a requirement ## The Publishers What the Community enjoyers need to chat in one specific #communikey : * Tag the npub in the (kind 9) chat message What they needs to publish anything else in one or multiple #communikeys : * Publish a (kind 32222 - Targeted publication) event that lists the npubs of the targeted Communities * If the event is found on the main relay = The event is accepted This way: * **any existing publication** can be targeted at a Community * Communities can #interop on content and bring their members together in reply sections, etc... * Your publication isn't tied **forever** to a specific relay ## Ncommunity If nprofile = npub + relay hints, for profiles Then ncommunity = npub + relay hints, for communities

In today’s fast-evolving workplaces, effective leadership hinges on more than just authority or charisma. You must unlock the potential of your team. Enter andragogy, a framework for adult learning that can transform how leaders inspire, engage, and empower their people. Initially developed by educator Malcolm Knowles in the 1960s, andragogy shifts the focus from traditional, top-down teaching to a model tailored to the unique needs of adult learners. For leaders, mastering this approach is a superpower that leverages the experience and problem-solving capacity of their teams to drive real results. So, what is andragogy? Unlike pedagogy, which focuses on teaching children through structured, teacher-led methods, andragogy recognizes that adults learn differently. Knowles identified key principles that define this model: adults are self-directed, bring a wealth of experience to the table, are motivated by relevance, prefer problem-centered learning, and thrive when they understand the “why” behind what they’re doing. For leaders, these principles aren’t abstract theories. They’re actionable tools you can leverage to build stronger, more capable teams. The beauty of andragogy lies in its respect for what adults already know. Think about your team: they’re not blank slates waiting for instructions. They’ve got years of experience, insights from past roles, and skills honed through trial and error. Too often, leaders fall into the trap of micromanaging or delivering one-size-fits-all approach that ignores this depth. Andragogy flips the script. Adult learning theory reminds us to tap into that reservoir of expertise and channel it toward solving the real-world challenges our organizations face. Imagine you’re leading a team tasked with improving customer retention. A traditional approach might involve sending out a manual or dictating a step-by-step process. An andragogical approach, however, starts by asking: What do you already know about keeping customers happy? You might facilitate a discussion where team members share stories. Maybe a sales rep recalls a tactic that won back a frustrated client, or a support agent highlights a pattern they’ve noticed in feedback. Suddenly, you’re not just giving orders; you’re curating a collective problem-solving session that respects their expertise and builds buy-in. The result? Solutions grounded in real experience. This approach also aligns with adults’ preference for relevance and practicality. Knowles emphasized that adults learn best when they see immediate value in what they’re doing. As a leader, you can harness this by tying learning to tangible outcomes. Let’s say your team needs to adopt a new software tool. Instead of a generic training session, frame it around a specific problem, like streamlining a workflow that’s been eating up hours. Give them space to experiment with the tool, share what works, and tweak it based on their insights. They’re not just learning; they’re solving something that matters to them, which fuels motivation and ownership. Andragogy’s problem-centered focus is another leadership goldmine. Adults don’t want to memorize facts for the sake of it; they want to tackle issues they’re facing right now. This is where you, as a leader, can shine. By positioning yourself as a facilitator rather than a dictator, you create an environment where your team attacks real challenges collaboratively. Take a stalled project, for instance. Instead of prescribing a fix, gather your team and ask: What’s blocking us, and what have we seen work elsewhere? Let them draw on their past wins and failures to craft a solution. You’re not just solving the problem. You’re building a team that’s confident in its ability to adapt. Ready for a quick win to test this out? Here’s one you can try tomorrow: The Experience Share. Next time you’re in a team meeting, pick a current challenge like a deadline crunch or a client complaint. Allocate 15 minutes for everyone to share one relevant experience they’ve had that could inform the solution. Maybe someone’s navigated a similar deadline before, or another dealt with a picky client. Jot down the ideas, then guide the group to pick one or two to act on. It’s fast, leverages their know-how, and shows you value their input. Watch engagement and results tick up. The andragogy edge isn’t about reinventing leadership; it’s about amplifying what’s already there. By treating your team as capable, self-directed learners with valuable experience, you unlock a level of collaboration and innovation that top-down methods can’t touch. In a world where adaptability is king, this isn’t just a theory. It’s your secret weapon. So, step back, tap into your team’s wisdom, and watch them rise to the occasion. Leadership doesn’t get more super than that.

Las motivaciones para configurar un segundo router pueden ser: * Como repetidor wifi en una zona apartada de la casa donde no llega de habitual. * Configurar el segundo router con VPN (probándolo, la configuración en el principal funciona pero aplicándola en un segundo router conectado al principal no usa la VPN, intentaré resolverlo). * Usar el segundo para experimentación. * Si se te ocurren más motivos coméntalos. Para empezar, debes desactivar sus funciones de router (como DHCP y NAT) y configurarlo para que simplemente extienda la red de tu router principal. Aquí te explico cómo hacerlo paso a paso: **1. Conectar los Routers Físicamente** * Conecta un cable Ethernet desde un puerto LAN del router principal a un puerto LAN del router OpenWrt. * No uses el puerto WAN del router OpenWrt, ya que no lo necesitarás en esta configuración. **2. Acceder al Router OpenWrt** * Conéctate al router OpenWrt mediante SSH o accede a la interfaz web (LuCI). En mi caso lo intenté por interfaz gráfica y no lo conseguí, así que continúo explicando solo mediante SSH. **3. Desactivar la Interfaz WAN** * Como no usarás la interfaz WAN, puedes desactivarla. * Edita el archivo /etc/config/network: ``` vi /etc/config/network ``` * Comenta o elimina la sección de la interfaz WAN, comentar es añadir un # delante. Por ejemplo: ``` # config interface 'wan' # option proto 'dhcp' # option ifname 'eth1' ``` * Pulsa ESC para asegurar el modo escritura y después para guardar y salir `:wq` + intro. **4. Configurar la Interfaz LAN** * Configura la interfaz LAN para que obtenga una dirección IP del router principal. * Edita el archivo ```/etc/config/network``` y modifica la sección de la interfaz LAN: ``` config interface 'lan' option proto 'static' option ifname 'br-lan' option ipaddr '192.168.1.2' # Dirección IP dentro del rango del router principal option netmask '255.255.255.0' option gateway '192.168.1.1' # IP del router principal option dns '1.1.1.1' # Servidores DNS ``` * Pulsa ESC para asegurar el modo escritura y después para guardar y salir `:wq` + intro. Asegúrate de que: * ```ipaddr``` sea una dirección IP dentro del rango del router principal (por ejemplo, si el router principal usa `192.168.1.x`, elige una IP como `192.168.1.2`). * `gateway` sea la IP del router principal (por ejemplo, `192.168.1.1`). * `dns` sean servidores DNS válidos. **5. Desactivar el Servidor DHCP en OpenWrt** * Como el router principal ya proporciona direcciones IP, debes desactivar el servidor DHCP en OpenWrt. * Edita el archivo /etc/config/dhcp: ``` vi /etc/config/dhcp ``` * Desactiva el servidor DHCP en la sección lan: * Con añadir al final "option ignore '1'" basta. No borres el resto de la sección. ``` config dhcp 'lan' option interface 'lan' option ignore '1' # Desactiva el servidor DHCP ``` * Pulsa ESC para asegurar el modo escritura y después para guardar y salir `:wq` + intro. **6. Configurar el Firewall** Como el router OpenWrt actuará como un AP, no necesita funciones de firewall. * Edita el archivo /etc/config/firewall y desactiva las reglas de firewall: ``` config zone option name 'lan' option input 'ACCEPT' option output 'ACCEPT' option forward 'ACCEPT' option network 'lan' ``` * Pulsa ESC para asegurar el modo escritura y después para guardar y salir `:wq` + intro. **7. Reiniciar el Router OpenWrt** Después de realizar los cambios, reinicia el router OpenWrt para aplicar la configuración: ``` reboot ``` **8. Probar la Configuración** Conecta un dispositivo a la red LAN o Wi-Fi del router OpenWrt y verifica si tiene acceso a Internet. * Prueba la conectividad con: ``` ping 8.8.8.8 ``` Espero que sirva de ayuda. Si tienes cualquier problema descríbemelo para aprender juntos.

Embracing the **"Fail Fast, Learn Faster"** principle, as practiced by entrepreneurs like Reid Hoffman and Jeff Bezos, involves viewing failure as a valuable learning tool. This approach encourages rapid experimentation, allowing for swift feedback and iterative improvement—fostering innovation and preventing analysis paralysis. --- ## Understanding "Fail Fast, Learn Faster" - **Definition:** This methodology emphasizes quickly testing ideas to identify what doesn’t work so that you can discover effective solutions faster. By accepting failure as an integral part of the process, both organizations and individuals can adapt and innovate more efficiently. --- ## Examples in Practice - **Reid Hoffman's Rapid Experimentation:** The co-founder of LinkedIn advocates for swift iteration. He suggests that if you're not embarrassed by your first product release, you've waited too long—promoting early market entry and continuous learning from user feedback. [movestheneedle.com](https://www.movestheneedle.com/blog/rapid-experimentation-the-fast-track-to-overcoming-uncertainty-2) - **Jeff Bezos's Embrace of Failure:** The founder of Amazon views failure as an integral component of innovation. Bezos has noted that failures have taught him more than successes, and companies that don’t embrace failure risk stagnation. [thebezosletters.com](https://thebezosletters.com/failure-has-to-be-an-option/) --- ## Implementing "Fail Fast, Learn Faster" 1. **Encourage a Culture of Experimentation:** Create an environment where team members feel safe to test new ideas without fear of repercussions. 2. **Set Clear Hypotheses and Metrics:** Define what success and failure look like for each experiment so that the learnings are actionable. 3. **Iterate Based on Feedback:** Use the insights gained from failed experiments to refine your ideas and approaches continuously. --- ## Benefits of This Approach - **Accelerated Innovation:** Rapid testing leads to quicker identification of viable solutions. - **Risk Mitigation:** Small-scale experiments help minimize the impact of failures, reducing overall losses. - **Enhanced Adaptability:** Organizations become more responsive to market changes and emerging opportunities. --- ## Action Step Identify a project or idea you’ve been hesitant to pursue due to uncertainty. Design a small-scale experiment to test its viability, gather feedback, and iterate based on the results. --- By adopting the "Fail Fast, Learn Faster" mindset, you can transform potential setbacks into opportunities for growth and innovation—leading to sustained success. For further insights into Jeff Bezos's perspective on embracing failure, consider watching this discussion: [Video: Fail Fast, Learn Faster Discussion](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N_ap4d0eWhM) ---

**Die «Eliten» führen bereits groß angelegte Pilotprojekte für eine Zukunft durch,** die sie wollen und wir nicht. Das [schreibt](https://off-guardian.org/2025/02/26/coming-soon-the-european-digital-identity-wallet/) der *OffGuardian* in einem Update zum Thema «EU-Brieftasche für die digitale Identität». Das Portal weist darauf hin, dass die Akteure dabei nicht gerade zimperlich vorgehen und auch keinen Hehl aus ihren Absichten machen. *Transition News* hat mehrfach darüber berichtet, zuletzt [hier](https://transition-news.org/eudi-wallet-der-weg-fur-ein-vollstandig-digitalisiertes-europa-ist-frei) und [hier](https://transition-news.org/iata-biometrische-daten-und-digitale-id-machen-das-vollstandig-digitale). **Mit der EU Digital Identity Wallet (EUDI-Brieftasche) sei eine einzige von der Regierung herausgegebene App geplant,** die Ihre medizinischen Daten, Beschäftigungsdaten, Reisedaten, Bildungsdaten, Impfdaten, Steuerdaten, Finanzdaten sowie (potenziell) Kopien Ihrer Unterschrift, Fingerabdrücke, Gesichtsscans, Stimmproben und DNA enthält. So fasst der *OffGuardian* die eindrucksvolle Liste möglicher Einsatzbereiche zusammen. **Auch Dokumente wie der Personalausweis oder der** **[Führerschein](https://transition-news.org/eu-weite-einfuhrung-von-digitalen-fuhrerscheinen-fur-digitale-geldborsen)** können dort in elektronischer Form gespeichert werden. Bis 2026 sind alle EU-Mitgliedstaaten dazu verpflichtet, Ihren Bürgern funktionierende und frei verfügbare digitale «Brieftaschen» bereitzustellen. **Die Menschen würden diese App nutzen,** so das Portal, um Zahlungen vorzunehmen, Kredite zu beantragen, ihre Steuern zu zahlen, ihre Rezepte abzuholen, internationale Grenzen zu überschreiten, Unternehmen zu gründen, Arzttermine zu buchen, sich um Stellen zu bewerben und sogar digitale Verträge online zu unterzeichnen. **All diese Daten würden auf ihrem Mobiltelefon gespeichert und mit den Regierungen** von neunzehn Ländern (plus der Ukraine) sowie über 140 anderen öffentlichen und privaten Partnern ausgetauscht. Von der Deutschen Bank über das ukrainische Ministerium für digitalen Fortschritt bis hin zu Samsung Europe. Unternehmen und Behörden würden auf diese Daten im Backend zugreifen, um «automatisierte Hintergrundprüfungen» durchzuführen. **Der Bundesverband der Verbraucherzentralen und Verbraucherverbände** (VZBV) habe Bedenken geäußert, dass eine solche App «Risiken für den Schutz der Privatsphäre und der Daten» berge, berichtet das Portal. Die einzige Antwort darauf laute: «Richtig, genau dafür ist sie ja da!» **Das alles sei keine Hypothese, betont der** ***OffGuardian***. Es sei vielmehr [«Potential»](https://www.digital-identity-wallet.eu/about-us/140-public-and-private-partners/). Damit ist ein EU-Projekt gemeint, in dessen Rahmen Dutzende öffentliche und private Einrichtungen zusammenarbeiten, «um eine einheitliche Vision der digitalen Identität für die Bürger der europäischen Länder zu definieren». Dies ist nur eines der groß angelegten [Pilotprojekte](https://ec.europa.eu/digital-building-blocks/sites/display/EUDIGITALIDENTITYWALLET/What+are+the+Large+Scale+Pilot+Projects), mit denen Prototypen und Anwendungsfälle für die EUDI-Wallet getestet werden. Es gibt noch mindestens drei weitere. **Den Ball der digitalen ID-Systeme habe die Covid-«Pandemie»** über die «Impfpässe» ins Rollen gebracht. Seitdem habe das Thema an Schwung verloren. Je näher wir aber der vollständigen Einführung der EUid kämen, desto mehr Propaganda der Art «Warum wir eine digitale Brieftasche brauchen» könnten wir in den Mainstream-Medien erwarten, prognostiziert der *OffGuardian*. Vielleicht müssten wir schon nach dem nächsten großen «Grund», dem nächsten «katastrophalen katalytischen Ereignis» Ausschau halten. Vermutlich gebe es bereits Pläne, warum die Menschen plötzlich eine digitale ID-Brieftasche brauchen würden. **Die Entwicklung geht jedenfalls stetig weiter in genau diese Richtung.** Beispielsweise hat Jordanien angekündigt, die digitale biometrische ID bei den nächsten [Wahlen](https://www.biometricupdate.com/202502/jordan-plans-digital-id-for-voter-verification-in-next-election) zur Verifizierung der Wähler einzuführen. Man wolle «den Papierkrieg beenden und sicherstellen, dass die gesamte Kette bis zu den nächsten Parlamentswahlen digitalisiert wird», heißt es. Absehbar ist, dass dabei einige Wahlberechtigte «auf der Strecke bleiben» werden, wie im Fall von [Albanien](https://transition-news.org/albanien-schliesst-120-000-burger-ohne-biometrische-ausweise-von-wahlen-aus) geschehen. **Derweil würden die Briten gerne ihre Privatsphäre gegen Effizienz eintauschen,** [behauptet](https://www.lbc.co.uk/news/tony-blair-id-cards/) Tony Blair. Der Ex-Premier drängte kürzlich erneut auf digitale Identitäten und Gesichtserkennung. Blair ist Gründer einer [Denkfabrik](https://transition-news.org/blair-institute-durch-vermarktung-von-patientendaten-zu-ki-gestutztem) für globalen Wandel, Anhänger globalistischer Technokratie und [«moderner Infrastruktur»](https://transition-news.org/tony-blair-digitale-id-fur-moderne-infrastruktur-unerlasslich-erfordert-aber). **Abschließend warnt der** ***OffGuardian*** **vor der Illusion, Trump und Musk würden** den US-Bürgern «diesen Schlamassel ersparen». Das Department of Government Efficiency werde sich auf die digitale Identität stürzen. Was könne schließlich «effizienter» sein als eine einzige App, die für alles verwendet wird? Der Unterschied bestehe nur darin, dass die US-Version vielleicht eher privat als öffentlich sei – sofern es da überhaupt noch einen wirklichen Unterschied gebe. *\[Titelbild: Screenshot* *[OffGuardian](https://off-guardian.org/2025/02/26/coming-soon-the-european-digital-identity-wallet/)]* *** Dieser Beitrag ist zuerst auf ***[Transition News](https://transition-news.org/demnachst-verfugbar-die-europaische-brieftasche-fur-digitale-identitaten)*** erschienen.

Liebe Abonnenten, Februar war ein eher unerfreulicher Monat - zumindest für alle Bitcoin-, Crypto- und Tech-Investoren. Die schlechte Nachricht: Es könnte noch etwa zwei Wochen so weitergehen. Die gute: danach wird es aufwärtsgehen. Wir schauen uns das im folgenden gleich genauer an. Die Strategie, die meiste Zeit über relativ viel Cash zu halten (zwischen zehn und 15 Prozent) zahlt sich in solchen Phasen übrigens aus. BlingBling sieht solche Crashs recht entspannt, und kann diese zum günstigen Einkaufen nutzen. Doch zunächst zur Frage, warum es eigentlich so abwärts ging. [Am 22.2. wurde die Crypto-Börse Bybit gehackt](https://www.btc-echo.de/news/bybit-hack-so-klaute-nordkorea-1-4-milliarden-us-dollar-202444/). Anscheinend hat eine nordkoreanische Hacker-Gruppe Ethereum im Wert von knapp 1,5 Milliarden US-Dollar gestohlen. Bybit ging zwar vorbildlich mit dem Desaster um - vielen Crypto-Neulingen, die erst Ende vergangenen Jahres eingestiegen waren, dürfte es ein Schock gewesen sein. “Not your keys, not your coins” muss immer wieder neu gelernt werden. Buy the rumour, sell the news - die aktuelle Nachrichtenlage für Bitcoin und Crypto könnte eigentlich nicht besser sein. Der Präsident der größten Volkswirtschaft der Welt setzt auf Deregulierung der Branche, Microstrategy kauft weiter wie irre, ETFs genehmigt, Angebots-Knappheit durch Halving etc. Das Problem ist nur, dass Kurse meistens dann steigen, wenn es Gerüchte über gute Nachrichten gibt. Sind die guten Nachrichten eingetroffen, ist alles eingepreist. Für einen neuen Kursanstieg braucht es also auch neue Fantasien. Oder einfach nur Geld, sprich Liquidität. Und das führt zum imho wichtigsten Grund für die aktuelle Schwäche und den guten Nachrichten: Der Kurs von Bitcoin ist der Gradmesser dafür, wie viel Geld sich im System befindet. Nicht immer, aber sehr oft, reagiert der Kurs mit etwas Verzögerung auf Änderungen der Liquidität. Die befand sich seit Ende des Jahres im Rückgang. Mittlerweile steigt sie wieder und Bitcoin hat Aufholbedarf. (Es gibt unterschiedliche Meinungen darüber, wie man M2 berechnet, und die aussagekräftig dies ist. Insofern sollte man sie als eine von vielen Indikatoren nutzen).  Ein wichtiger Termin ist der 14. März. [An diesem Tag wird entschieden, ob die Schuldenobergrenze der USA angehoben wird](https://www.forbes.com/sites/simonmoore/2025/02/25/government-shutdown-risk-looms-for-march/). Bisher haben sich Republikaner und Demokraten nach einigen Querelen immer darauf geeinigt. Ob es dieses Mal wieder so kommt, oder ob Trump und Musk im Rahmen von DOGE sogar einem Shutdown gar nicht so abgeneigt sind, wird sich zeigen. Mitte April müssen in den USA außerdem Steuern gezahlt werden. Da die Kapitalerträge im vergangenen Jahr aufgrund der Rally in Tech-Aktien, Bitcoin und im S\&P hoch sind, dürfte einiges Kapital abfließen. Demnach könnte es also noch ein paar Wochen dauern, bis die Märkte wieder deutlich anziehen. Und vielleicht kommt die Liquidität dieses Mal auch nicht aus den USA, [sondern aus Asien](https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-02-26/china-plans-to-start-bank-capital-hike-with-at-least-55-billion?utm_source=website\&utm_medium=share\&utm_campaign=twitter): > *"China plans to to inject at least 400 billion yuan in three of its biggest banks in coming months, following through on a broad stimulus package unveiled last year to shore up the struggling economy."* Ein weiterer bullisher Termin ist der 7. März. An diesem Tag findet der [“Crypto Summit” im Weißen Haus](https://www.coindesk.com/policy/2025/02/28/white-house-announces-crypto-roundtable-for-next-week) statt. Es ist das erste Treffen dieser Art und ein möglicher Katalysator für positive Überraschungen. Ungewöhnlich ist der Kurssturz übrigens nicht. In allen großen Bull-Märkten ging es zwischenzeitlich sogar weitaus tiefer.  \ BlingBling nutzt solche Phasen deswegen zum Nachkaufen. *Was genau, darüber geht es hinter der Paywall. Falls Du Dir noch unsicher bist: Du kannst auch für sieben Euro ein Monats-Abo abschließen und erhältst damit Zugang zu allen vorherigen Reports. Hier geht es rüber zu* *[blingbling.substack.com](https://blingbling.substack.com/p/chill-and-btfd)*

Kann ich etwas bewirken im Geschehen, in das ich hineingeboren wurde? Psychologen ist bekannt, dass Menschen bezüglich dieser für jeden Menschen entscheidenden Frage während ihrer Kindheit und Jugend in der einen oder anderen Richtung konditioniert werden. Heraus kommen dann Erwachsene mit geringer oder hoher Einschätzung der eigenen Selbstwirksamkeit. Viele Menschen wachsen heran mit der Botschaft der Eltern und älteren Zeitgenossen: Du kannst die Welt nicht ändern. Das schaffst Du nicht. Füge Dich ein in die Gesellschaft, die Du vorfindest. Nur dann hast die Chance, ein gutes Leben zu führen. Andere haben das Glück, von Eltern oder anderen Zeitgenossen ermuntert zu werden: Folge Deinem Herzen, tu die Dinge, die die Welt braucht und die Dir Freude machen. Du kannst und wirst das schaffen. Du kannst beitragen, die Welt nach Deinem Bilde zu formen. Dann wirst Du ein erfülltes Leben führen. Welches Muster dominiert in den Industrieländern unserer Zeit? Spätestens mit Einführung der Schulpflicht wird die überwiegende Zahl der Heranwachsenden mehr oder weniger erfolgreich auf Gehorsam gegenüber den gerade vorherrschenden Macht-Strukturen getrimmt. Die gängige Schulbildung führt dazu, dass viele Kinder vorgegebene Denk- und Handlungsmuster von Lehrern kritiklos übernehmen. Das hat der deutsche Psychologe Wolfgang Köhler bereits vor über 100 Jahren bei Hospitationen in deutschen Schulklassen festgestellt. Die Kinder lernen, dass sie mit einer Wiederholung der vom Lehrer vorgegebenen Lösungswege besser fahren als wenn sie selbst denken. Die Absolventen solcher Bildungssysteme sind zum Großteil Duckmäuser, welche dann im Studium, bei weiteren Ausbildungen oder im Militärdienst gehorsam alles tun, was von ihnen verlangt wird. Sie folgen abstrusesten Anweisungen und Anordnungen, wie wir alle in den vergangenen 5 Jahren live mitverfolgen durften. Diese Menschen schwingen nicht den Taktstock der Geschichte. Sie bilden die Masse der Untertanen, moderne Mann´sche Heßlings, die leichte Beute von Werbung, Propaganda und Parteiversprechen vor Wahlen werden.   Wer führt aktuell den Taktstock der Geschichte? Es sind demokratisch nicht legitimierte selbsternannte "Eliten" in weltweit agierenden Organisationen und Netzwerken. Es sind Menschen, denen Mitfühlen mit anderen Wesen offenkundig fremd ist. Menschen, die einen Krieg nach dem anderen vom Zaun brechen. Sie werden von einer Schar gekaufter Lakaien aus der Medien- und Werbebranche sowie von "Young Global Leaders" dabei unterstützt, ihre Vorstellungen von einer Sklavenhalter-Gesellschaft in die Welt zu bringen, in der eine winzige Minorität die große Mehrheit der Menschheit als moderne Sklaven unter ihre Kontrolle zu bringen sucht.  Ihre Ankündigungen klingen uns in den Ohren. "Ihr werdet nichts besitzen, aber Ihr werdet glücklich sein", "wir impfen Euch mit (nicht Langzeit-geprüften) mRna Substanzen und Ihr werdet gesund bleiben", "wir impfen die Wolken (s. Titelbild) und das wird dem Wetter gut tun", "wir bestrahlen Euch mit (nicht auf Gesundheitsfolgen geprüftem) 5G Mobilfunk und das wird Euch zufrieden machen" (s. Titelbild), "wir schaffen das Bargeld ab und das wird Euer Leben vereinfachen". Wie lange noch wollen wir solche Ansagen hinnehmen und ihnen gehorsam folgen? Sobald eine hinreichende Zahl an Menschen der Völker unseres Planeten erkennt, dass wir selbst den Taktstock der Geschichte übernehmen können, wird sich unsere Gesellschaft in unserem Sinne zu wandeln beginnen: Wenn wir erkennen, dass in jedem von uns ein göttlicher Funke schlummert, der uns die Energie gibt, unsere Welt selber zu gestalten, dann geht die Ära der Kriegstreiber und Giftmischer, die Zeit der Nicke-Dackel Demokratie und Meldestellen für Regime-kritische Meinungen ihrem Ende entgegen. Was kann jeder von uns hier und jetzt tun, um zu starten mit diesem neuen Kapitel der Menschheitsgeschichte? Es scheint mir nicht so schwer zu sein: Wenn wir aufhören, die Propaganda zu verfolgen; wenn wir aufhören, mit vermeintlichen Rettern vor Krieg und Lüge mitzufiebern, welche als Milliardäre Teile des gewachsenen Systems sind, dann gewinnen wir viel Zeit. Die können wir nutzen, uns zu öffnen für die endlos vielen Initiativen der gerade entstehenden Regionalgesellschaft. Dort können wir mitwirken oder eigene Initiativen gründen.  In meinen ca. 1.000 Blogs der vergangenen Jahre (bei den [Zukunftskommunen](https://zukunftskommunen.de/blog/), der [Genossenschaft Menschlich Wirtschaften](https://menschlichwirtschaften.de/kategorie/peter-schmuck/) und hier auf dem [Pareto-Marktplatz](https://pareto.space/u/peter@pareto.town)) sind zahlreiche Erfolgsgeschichten dieser Graswurzelbewegungen portraitiert.  Und einige meiner psychologischen Studien dieser Jahre stützen die These: Wer sich für eine faire und saubere Welt engagiert, fühlt sich wohler als andere Menschen. Die von meinen Teams befragten Pioniere berichten, dass wir infolge solchen Engagements in Balance kommen mit unseren Mitgeschöpfen, dass wir zunehmend mit Menschen in Kontakt kommen, mit denen wir Freude und Begeisterung teilen können. Weil wir den göttlichen Funken in uns zum Motor einer Entwicklung machen, welche wir wirklich haben wollen, also im Einklang mit unserem Gewissen leben können. Weil uns dann der Taktstock von Menschen ohne Mitgefühl nicht länger interessiert. Wenn Sie diese Überlegungen anregend finden und neugierig auf Details sind: Im Handbuch für Lichtbotschafter (open source, [hier abrufbar](https://zukunftskommunen.de/blog/soeben-erschienen-handbook-for-light-ambassadors-handbuch-fuer-lichtbotschafter/)) finden Sie eine Fülle von Inspirationen für den Einstieg in die faire, vertrauensvolle Regionalgesellschaft, welche durchaus ohne psychopathische Dirigenten auskommt. Und selber den Taktstock zu schwingen - bringt Lebensfreude. Wissenschaftlich formuliert: Gefühlte Selbstwirksamkeit korreliert mit Wohlbefinden. Probieren Sie es aus! *Titelbild: Blick in den Abendhimmel von Bad Frankenhausen am Kyffhäuser nach Westen am 3.3.2025 mit Hinterlassenschaften von Flugzeugen und einem 5G Mast mit nicht sichtbarer Mobilfunkstrahlung (sorry, das Bild steht versehentlich auf dem Kopf, so wie die Realität unserem ethischen Empfinden diametral entgegensteht)*

In this edition, we invited Kipler, the founder of Bitcoin Indonesia, to share how he built the Bitcoin community in Indonesia, overcoming challenges like member turnover and venue selection, while driving the adoption and growth of Bitcoin. **YakiHonne**: Welcome, Keypleb. Before we begin, let me briefly introduce YakiHonne. YakiHonne is a decentralized media client built on Nostr—a protocol designed to empower freedom of speech through technology. It enables creators to own their voices and assets while offering innovative tools like smart widgets, verified notes, and support for long-form content. We focus on free speech and free media by user privacy and data to be protected. So before starting the interview, I'd like to hear about yourself and your community. **Keypleb**：My name is Keypleb, though it’s a pseudonym—a name I use to respect privacy. I'm a co-founder of Bitcoin Indonesia, Bitcoin House Bali, and Code Orange, a new developer school we launched at a conference just a few days ago. We focus on driving adoption through meetups, hackathons, and technical workshops. I'll dive into more details later, but that's a brief overview. I'm based in Bali now, though I travel a lot and consider myself quite nomadic. Great to be here. **YakiHonne**: What sparked your interest in Bitcoin and what motivated you to create a community on Bitcoin? **Keypleb**：I first got interested in Bitcoin because it solved a specific problem. At the time, I didn’t know exactly what the solution was, but the problem was that I couldn’t afford a home. Back in 2019, I was living in London, and a two-bedroom apartment was £600,000, which was insanely expensive. First-time buyers like myself simply couldn’t afford it. Why was it so expensive? Why was buying a house so hard? During the COVID lockdown, I had more time on my hands and started listening to Michael Saylor on a Bitcoin podcast, where he talked about how the system is rigged, and that’s why people work hard but still can’t afford a house. That really resonated with me. So I started looking for a community, but unfortunately, there wasn’t one.. **Keypleb**：After moving to Bali, I attended a lot of crypto meetups, especially scammy altcoin ones, thinking, “There has to be a solution.” But none of them resonated with me. There was no sense of freedom, and no real discussion about inflation resistance. I remembered a podcast from Dea Reskita, an Indonesian host who’s pretty well-known online. I reached out to her and said, “ you’ve got to help me. I’m surrounded by all these shitcoiners, and I can’t take it anymore. I need a real community. Is anything happening?” She replied, “Yes, something is happening. We should restart these meetups next month.” And that’s how it all began. **Keypleb**：There’s also another story about how we started Bitcoin House and how Bitcoin in Asia came to be, but maybe I’ll save that for later. Anyway, the spark of interest came from Bitcoin solving a real problem, and my drive to keep going came from the lack of quality meetups. Now, we’ve hosted 31 meetups, launched Bitcoin House and Code Orange, and the movement is growing rapidly.  **YakiHonne**: That’s such an amazing story—going from being on the brink of homelessness to creating something so impactful, and keeping it running every day, bringing new people into the journey. It’s truly inspiring. I’m curious about how the community started. How did you manage to attract members and build a strong community? What challenges did you face along the way? **Keypleb**：It all started with our first meetup at the end of 2022, which was two and a half years ago now. At that time, we sent out an email to a group from a previous database, and the first meetup had around 20 people, which was a good start. However, problems quickly arose as people started dropping off, and the community lacked retention. In Bali, people come and go, usually staying for no more than two months, leading to a lack of long-term participation. This became one of our challenges: how to attract more people and, more importantly, get the same people to keep coming back. While I've been coming back for two and a half years, not everyone is able to return as often, and that has been a real challenge. **Keypleb**：Actually, I should also mention how I met my co-founders—Marius, Diana, and Dimas. We met at the 2023 Indonesia Bitcoin Conference. As time went on, we kept hosting meetups and had a lot of fun each time, though the locations kept changing. One of the initial challenges was that we didn't realize the importance of having a fixed meetup location. We changed venues several times before we realized that having a consistent location is crucial. If anyone wants to run a meetup, it's best to always choose a fixed location. We learned this through trial and error, but now it's no longer an issue. **Keypleb**：Since the conference, my co-founders and I have been working together, consistently putting in the effort. This is why our community has grown so large—so far, we are hosting 31 monthly meetups, 6 of which are in Bali. This means there is a bitcoin meetup almost every day on a regular basis. We've also established Bitcoin House Bali, a physical space, and the movement is growing rapidly. Without this movement, the region would face many challenges, including inflation and heavy censorship. It all started from just one meetup.  **YakiHonne**: It's amazing to see how you met your co-founders and how you’ve built something incredible that continues to grow today. What advice would you give to someone looking to start a successful Bitcoin community right now? **Keypleb**：First, one very important piece of advice is to ensure that every meetup is held at the same location regularly. We realized this challenge through trial and error. To help others who are interested, we’ve published our meetup guide on GitHub, where everyone can check it out. For example, meetups should be held regularly, ideally once a month, or even once a week. In Chiang Mai, the Bitcoin meetup starts every Thursday at 7 PM, and everyone knows the time and location, making it easy to join without having to look up the next meetup. **Keypleb**：Additionally, our meetup structure is very simple. First, we do a round of introductions where everyone shares their name, where they’re from, and what Bitcoin means to them. This usually takes about 15 minutes. Then, we discuss three main questions: First, why do we need Bitcoin? The discussion typically focuses on two main issues Bitcoin addresses: inflation and censorship；Secondly, how to buy Bitcoin? We usually ask who wants to buy some Bitcoin, and then we do a small purchase together and conduct a P2P trade to demonstrate how easy it is to buy Bitcoin. Lastly, how to store Bitcoin? We introduce self-custody and show how to use hardware wallets (like Trezor), explaining the concept of the 12 words and private keys. **Keypleb**：The whole meetup usually wraps up in about an hour, after which people can continue socializing at Bitcoin House or wherever the meetup is taking place. In short, keeping the meetup simple and efficient, and ensuring a fixed location for each event, are key factors in building a successful community. **YakiHonne**: What's the major approach? Is it more technical, or do you focus on non-technical aspects, or do you cover both? **Keypleb**：Our approach includes both technical and non-technical content. Initially, our meetups were completely non-technical, just casual gatherings for people to socialize. Over time, however, we've evolved to incorporate more technical content. **Keypleb**：Out of the 31 monthly regular meetups we host, most of them have been non-technical, simply regular gatherings held at the same time and place according to our meetup guide. For example, we host the “Bitcoin for Beginners” meetup, which is designed for newcomers and takes place every second Friday of the month at 5 PM at the Bitcoin House Bali. This is entirely non-technical. Additionally, every Wednesday at Bitcoin House, we host the “My First Bitcoin” course. While the course touches on some technical aspects, such as seed phrases and backups, it’s still beginner-friendly and not too technical. The course runs for 10 weeks, and we plan to offer it in the local language at Bali University to help the local community better understand Bitcoin. **Keypleb**：On the other hand, we also offer highly technical content. We launched a new program called “Code Orange,” which is specifically designed for developers and programmers. We use the “Decoding Bitcoin” website, created by Jamal, which is a learning platform for developers. Many developer schools, like Code Orange, use this resource. Additionally, we host “Code Orange” meetups where we dive into the technical aspects of Bitcoin, such as how mining works and how to prevent single points of failure. **Keypleb**：We also organize technical workshops, such as “How to Defend Against a Five-Dollar Wrench Attack,” which is closely related to security. Recently, there have been some kidnapping incidents in Bali, and many people are concerned about their Bitcoin being stolen. To address this, we plan to hold a workshop on how to protect Bitcoin against such attacks. Additionally, we host hackathons and other high-tech events, and we just completed a very successful beginner-level hackathon. **Keypleb**：In summary, our community caters to everyone, from beginners to technical experts. For beginners, we offer easy-to-understand, non-technical content, while for experienced Bitcoiners, we provide in-depth technical material.  **YakiHonne**: It's great to approach it in both ways, so everyone gets their own "piece of the cake."Now, I'd like to dive into the technical side. What advice would you give to technically inclined individuals or organizations looking to contribute to the Bitcoin ecosystem? How should they approach the technical aspects of Bitcoin if they want to get involved? **Keypleb**：I have some additional advice. First, technical individuals can sign up for the “Decoding Bitcoin” course that starts on 18th March 2025 or join our “Code Orange” program and participate in the end-of-year hackathon. If they are technically proficient, this will be a great opportunity. “Decoding Bitcoin” is great for beginners, but it’s also useful for technical individuals. If someone is very skilled, they can start contributing code right away. If they find the course too easy, they can skip it and dive directly into more advanced projects. Additionally, Bitshala and Chaincode Labs offer advanced courses, which more technically advanced individuals can choose to pursue.  **Keypleb**：Additionally, it's worth mentioning that the Bitcoin Dev Project has a great platform where technical individuals can find “Good First Issue” or open-source projects to start contributing code. You'll learn about the philosophy behind Bitcoin and why it's more meaningful than other “shitcoins.” Once you’ve taken enough “orange pills” (the philosophy and technology of Bitcoin), you can dive deeper into Bitcoin core development and potentially start coding in C++. If you're interested, you can join specific projects like Nostr, Fedimint or E-Cash. **YakiHonne**: I’d like to move on to the next question: How do you see Bitcoin communities evolving as technology progresses, particularly in areas like scalability, privacy, and adaptability to other systems? Keypleb：I believe the Bitcoin community will continue to evolve, and it has already made incredible progress. Two and a half years ago, we started alone in Bali, with just ourselves. We began in the official phase and have had numerous conversations throughout the year. For example, we are now starting a Bitcoin club at a university in Bali; we just need to find a passionate, driven “Bitcoin maximalist,” and the Bitcoin club will begin. Like what our friends did in Banyuwangi, Indonesia, these clubs could eventually evolve into Bitcoin houses. **Keypleb**：Regarding privacy and scalability, the community is making strides. We’re big fans of Fedi, which builds on top of the Fedimint protocol and uses e-cash to scale Bitcoin while improving privacy. Fedi low fees and high privacy potential give Bitcoin great opportunities in this area. **Keypleb**：As for Bitcoin's compatibility with fiat systems, although Bitcoin payments are illegal in some countries like Indonesia, smart developers across Southeast Asia are working on legal solutions. For example, there's a website called Pleb QR that works in Thailand, allowing you to pay in fiat via the Lightning Network. Koral is another app specifically for Indonesia. These kinds of testing products already exist and are physically possible, but we’re just waiting on regulations. My influential friends are actively lobbying the government for adoption. **Keypleb**：In summary, privacy, scalability, and compatibility with fiat systems are all works in progress, and they will continue to evolve positively. There will be more meetups, more wallet downloads, and more adoption—there’s no doubt about that. **YakiHonne**: You mentioned the concept of cross-country issues, so I have one last question: How is the government’s stance on Bitcoin? Is the political climate supportive or against Bitcoin? How do you see the government's approach to Bitcoin in your community or environment? **Keypleb**：This reminds me of a person, Jeff Booth, who once said, “We are them, the government is made up of us.” In Indonesia, many politicians actually support Bitcoin, and many of them mine Bitcoin themselves. When money is involved, the incentive is strong, and politicians naturally like to make more money. As a result, Indonesia has a large Bitcoin mining scene. However, overall, the Indonesian government is against Bitcoin, as seen in their ban on Bitcoin payments. The 2011 currency law states that any currency other than the Indonesian Rupiah (IDR) cannot be used, and violators can face up to one year in prison or a fine. This means you cannot pay with US dollars, lira, euros, pesos or pounds. **Keypleb**：This shows that the government’s legal system is somewhat fragile. It’s understandable that the government is concerned about disruptive technologies like Bitcoin, especially with such a fragile fiat system. Indonesia has also seen many arrests. In 2016, Bank Indonesia issued a letter announcing a crackdown on cryptocurrency payments. Those involved in paying in Bitcoin had their funds seized, and the police cooperated in shutting down businesses accepting Bitcoin payments in the cities. While this isn't very friendly, it does highlight the fragility of the existing system. We also believe that a new executive order may be introduced in the future, similar to when President Roosevelt in 1933 ordered Americans to hand over all their gold with his Executive Order 6102. If it happened before, it could happen again. **Keypleb**：Therefore, we predict that Bitcoin custody could become a legal issue, which is one of the reasons we blur the faces of participants at every meetup. We need to protect the community from any potential risks. But overall, we remain optimistic. Despite the government ban, the ideology of Bitcoin is unstoppable, and its spread cannot be stopped. So, we are very optimistic about the future. **YakiHonne**: I think almost every government around the world, even in Africa, faces similar issues with Bitcoin. Some governments might want Bitcoin but hesitate to openly accept it due to the fear of it undermining the traditional financial system, which, of course, could eventually happen. But hopefully, as the new generation comes into power, we'll see more Bitcoin-friendly governments. So, thank you so much for sharing your insights and advice. I really appreciate your time and the valuable input you've provided. **Keypleb**：I'm really glad this conversation enlightened me. I enjoyed it a lot, and it made me reflect on how much work we're doing and how valuable it is. There are a lot of problems out there, with censorship being the biggest one, followed by inflation, which is also a major issue depending on the region. But Bitcoin is open, the community is growing, and people are fighting against censorship and internet shutdowns in places like Indonesia and beyond. The movement is definitely growing. So, I'm very happy to be here and have this chat. Thanks again.

Alright, football degenerates, it’s March 2025, and we’re diving into the NFC West prediction game like it’s a barstool brawl on dollar beer night. Free agency’s a mess, the draft’s a dice roll, and we’re throwing out some ballsy calls for 2025. The Rams’ D-line was a freaking buzzsaw in 2024, Deebo Samuel ditched the Niners, and Cooper Kupp’s officially done in L.A. Let’s break this division down, team by team, with records, hot takes, and enough swagger to choke a linebacker. ### **San Francisco 49ers: 11-6 – Purdy’s Revenge Tour** The Niners crashed and burned at 6-11 in 2024, but they’re not staying down. Brock Purdy’s still got Brandon Aiyuk and George Kittle in his pocket, even with Deebo Samuel traded to God-knows-where. That defense, with Fred Warner playing like a man possessed, is ready to wreck shop. Free agency’s a buzzkill—guys like Charvarius Ward and Talanoa Hufanga might bounce, and Javon Hargrave could get the axe for cap space. Doesn’t matter. This roster’s too stacked to suck two years running. 11-6, division champs, and a big “screw you” to the doubters. ### **Los Angeles Rams: 10-7 – Stafford’s Last Stand** The Rams ran the NFC West in 2024 with a 10-7 record, and that defensive line—Jared Verse, Kobie Turner, Braden Fiske—was straight-up nasty, turning QBs into tackling dummies all season. Matthew Stafford’s still slinging it to Puka Nacua, but Cooper Kupp’s out the door, leaving the WR room looking like a ghost town. They locked up LT Alaric Jackson with a juicy three-year deal, so the O-line’s good, and that D-line? Absolute animals—they even tied a playoff record with nine sacks in one game last year. Aaron Donald’s long gone, but these young guns don’t care. Free agents like Tutu Atwell might dip, but 10-7 and a wildcard’s on deck—Stafford’s got one more run in him. ### **Arizona Cardinals: 9-8 – Kyler’s Quiet Climb** The Cards hit 8-9 in 2024, and they’re sniffing something bigger. Kyler Murray’s locked in long-term, James Conner’s a human battering ram, and Budda Baker’s still patrolling the secondary like a hawk. Jonathan Allen’s clogging the D-line, and WRs Michael Wilson and Greg Dortch are stepping up big. Free agency could bite—Demarcus Robinson and Sean Murphy-Bunting might jet—but 9-8 feels legit. That defense held tough last year, and if Gannon keeps the vibes rolling, they’re the wildcard pain-in-the-ass nobody wants to see. ### **Seattle Seahawks: 8-9 – Macdonald’s Rough Start** The ‘Hawks rolled to 10-7 in 2024, but 2025’s got “step back” written all over it. Coach Mike Macdonald’s got Geno Smith and DK Metcalf, but free agency might gut ‘em—Ernest Jones IV, Jarran Reed, and Tyler Lockett could all walk out the door. The D-line’s got some juice with Leonard Williams, but it’s not touching the Rams’ chaos factory. Bobby Wagner’s still a stud, but he can’t carry this alone. 8-9’s the call—offense needs a jolt, and this feels like a “we’re figuring it out” season. Tough break, Seattle. ### **The Final Horn** The NFC West in 2025 is a four-way bar fight. The Niners (11-6) grab the crown with raw talent and spite, the Rams (10-7) lean on that killer D-line for a wildcard, the Cards (9-8) sneak into the mix, and the ‘Hawks (8-9) lick their wounds. That Rams front? Verse, Turner, Fiske—they’re the real deal, Donald or not, and it’s why L.A.’s still in the hunt. Free agency’s the wild card—keep your guys, you’re golden; lose ‘em, you’re cooked. Save this, share it, and come at me on X when I’m wrong. Let’s ride, fam.
