Thanks Idiots

It's been...emotional. Onwards.

#Bitcoin

This is the big one!  

Today, we put some Bitcoin (1,432,047 Satoshis to be precise) in the hands of kids. It’s theirs, they own it, and we don’t have any say in how they save it or spend it.  

I’ll not spoil the results here, but I do have some thankyous to give.

We’ve always wanted to do an “Orange Pill Live” episode, to test our abilities in answering the questions of a precoiner and to see if (during the course of a podcast) we could convince someone to buy themselves their first Bitcoin. 

That was the intention of this episode, but in the time it’s taken us to schedule the pod with Bernie, he’d already got himself off zero! 

However, Bernie is Brendo’s mate, so we thought we’d go ahead with the call and press record anyway, and only publish it if we thought it might help someone out there. 

It turns out, Bernie has gone from zero to well down the road of hero in 2 short months, but he gave us a great perspective on the issues and questions a new Bitcoiner has right now.

If you’ve not heard Peter Dunworth’s valuation model for Bitcoin (frankly, what are you doing with your life), go back and listen to episodes 70 and 77, but although he’s been spruiking it all over town and asking someone to challenge it, no one has...until now. 

We, completely unfairly invited Pete back on under false pretences and then hit him with “his nemesis waiting in the green room”.  We wanted to see if we could shake his conviction or rattle his composure.  Listen to find out if we could. 

Settle in with a coffee. This is long one.  We discuss:

Jesse (@Jessenostr) is a cafe owner (Rise Mofo in Toukley) and former pastor based on the Central Coast in NSW, Australia. This one was an absolute pleasure to do. I hope you get as much from it as we did. We hope we offend you all at least once. Deal with it, it’s fine.

If you don’t know what they are, whatever you do, don’t look it up or listen to this podcast. 

There is no one that can segue from high voltage power transmission to upper decker’s and back quite like Daz Bea.  Yes, what’s happening in our world right now is damn serious, but we all need to find the fun in it too and that’s why we keep asking Daz onto the pod. 

He brings a wealth of knowledge around electricity, net zero targets, issues and opportunities in Australia and beyond, is a founding member of Looking Glass Education, is a proud family man and Queenslander, sings at the weekend and writes books in his ‘spare’ time.  I’m tired just reading that!

www.breez.technology has been around for a while, and to be honest I didn’t know much about it, so when Ivan reached out to have a chat it seemed like as good a time as any to start learning. 

Located in Sofia, Bulgaria, Ivan (@Nackoo2000) is the Chief of Staff (Chief of Stuff) and first non-developer to work for Breez. He’s my favourite type of bitcoiner...the ones that are here for the mission first, knowing the money will take care of itself.

Some would call it Karma.  The more you try to do good, the more good seeks you out. 

We started the Kids Art Competition with a modest 200,000 Satoshi’s to give away and our fingers crossed, but at time of writing, that prize is now 1,222,047 sats. Cool, right (thanks to all the supporters). 

We also got an e-mail from Scott and Mallory Sibley, whose daughter Charlotte wanted to enter the competition, and they wanted to add a few prizes as well (if that didn’t disqualify Charlotte!) 

They have kindly offered to donate a copy of their books “Goodnight Bitcoin” and “If You Give a Monster a Bitcoin” to the winner of the 0–4-year-old competition, and a copy of their game “SHAmory” to the winners of the other 3 age groups.  Plus, there will be a 50% discount at www.shamory.com to all those who enter the competition. 

We are very grateful for this kind gesture.  So, get creative kids! 

We asked them to come on the podcast to tell their story.  We discuss:
