Why are we here? what’s the point of encrypting all the things?This speech, should answer your question. Video version here:

Juan Galt.

Start a meetup. Do it every month for atleast a year, but ideally forever. Make it noob friendly and Bitcoin only.Then do a second meetup in between, but full nerd mode for the developers. A year later, sprinkle some magic and boom! Bitcoin community happens.Helps to have an amazing hacker garage to hang at, and work from. Cheers to Lightning developer Chris Guida! Juan Galt.

Most interesting to me anyway. How about you? There’s a lot of going on in the world, but no other person alive seems to be able to handle so many impossible jobs at the same time as Elon Musk. Despite controversies and political positions he has taken recently. You have to admit, what ever his secret is to execution, it is one worth figuring out.Here’s a solo pod attempt by me to answer this question. Let me know what you think and if you like these, suggest some other topics or questions I should take on!All the best. Juan Galt.

I’ve decided to join Top Builder. If you are an entrepreneur or builder, you should join as well!topbuilder.devJuan Galt.

Start with a Bitcoin meetup. Convince some OGs to come hang out.Get sponsors to throw money into a hackathon pot.

(Do a bunch of hard work nobody sees)And vuala! An awesome hackathon happens. Cheers!Juan Galt.

Max, a prolific Bitcoin open source contributor and tecnologist joins us to try and convince us to join him and the deepest bitcoin nerds on nostr! This conversation joins a series of discussions with Nostr entrepreneurs discussing the potential and friction points of Bitcoin’s native social network layer. If you like Nostr, follow me there!

For the forseable future anyway, the cryptographic transformation of the dollar is not just inevitable but economically very attractive to the global south. Americans don’t get it, the Dollar is their water but the rest of the world is drowning in much worse fiat.Meanwhile Bitcoin is still in it’s distribution stage barely cracking 1% global adoption. One day Bitcoin can - I really believe - become a daily use currency. I live in that future often. But in the meanwhile, an intermediary technology will take place. On this conversation, the Joltz team gives us the deep download from the cutting edge.Enjoy! Juan Galt.

On this call we dove deep into the mechanics of Ark as a scaling technology, it’s differences with Lightning, the challenges to scaling and how Covenants would massively improved Bitcoin scaling technologies. Special thanks to Tiero and Ark Labs for the hard work on scaling Bitcoin self custody to the world.
