In four months, I’m going to do something crazy.
I’m selling all of my belongings, and simplifying to living out of my backpack to embark on a 3 year journey to attend numerous Bitcoin meetups around the world.

Starting in two weeks, I will embarking on an extraordinary journey this year:

✅ Embracing the world from my backpack
❌ Staying put in Austin, TX
✅ Venturing globally to Bitcoin meetups
❌ Relying on fiat currency
✅ Thriving on

My laptop runs Linux, and cannot screenshare on zoom.
Tomorrow I am pitching in front of

Ended up going to goodwill and getting the laptop in this picture last minute.

I can’t believe I’m doing this - but I’m fully dedicated to make this real.
I’m in the process of selling all my things starting today, and did not renew my lease.
Putting this out there to keep myself accountable, and to prevent myself from getting cold feet.

Currently, Bitcoin is still arguably an exceptional phenomenon.

This journey is more than travel; it's about experiencing a pivotal tech and cultural shift.

Tell me a time when you got scammed in Bitcoin. I'll start:
One time I ordered a raspberry pi from a seller and paid in Bitcoin. Never received my item and was SOL of $237 in Bitcoin. That was 2 years ago. Now I refuse to buy anything in Bitcoin unless I can dispute the charge.

For the longest time, I was on the edge about making the bold move towards making our code open-source.
At the end of the day, we decided it’s the right thing to do - We have nothing to hide.
We believe in the ethos of the
#Bitcoin
community - openness, trust, & collaboration.
🚨 BIG NEWS!
This month, we’re launching our API and app, complete with extensive documentation and SDKs for all your needs.

Today, I was reminded on why I work in Bitcoin.
I had to send a payment via Venmo for something, and I hadn’t used it in years.
They needed a full KYC - It ended up taking me 10 minutes to go through the process.
Just to send some lunch money.
Fuck fiat.

Apparently designers have zero idea on what a “blockchain” structure looks like. Every image on google shows a bunch of squares interconnected… why?
The first picture is a proper blockchain - a single line. I have no idea what the second picture is trying to convey.

2022 was dedicated to quietly building

2023, we'll see the fruits of our labor as companies solidify their strategies.
2024 will be the year when mainstream adoption takes off as more people understand the power of Bitcoin.

I love the line. The line is my home. I live in the line. The line gives me everything I need. Why would I leave the line. I work and play in the line. I own nothing and I am happy thanks to the line. Without the line I am lost. The line provides for everyone. The Line is life

Here’s a thought:
I believe that

We’re also building an app for grandma to use. Super fast, super sexy, and stupid easy.
Make a contract, file disputes, and settle contracts faster than any escrow service in the world.

Making an ACH transfer or a bank wire between external accounts using my banks really is a pain in the ass.

The BitEscrow wallet will be fully open source under an MIT license.
Currently, bitcoin wallets have so much technical debt, and we want to be able to help fix some of that.

Banks keep turning
@BitEscrow_app
away for a business checking and savings account, just because we have the word “escrow” in our name, and “deal with cryptocurrency”
We aren’t technically an escrow service, since we are non-custodial, & we only deal with

The UX I had with banks:
- my account was flagged
- card was locked
- couldn’t move my own money without a phone call
- subpar cs
- have to wait 3 DAYS for the transfer
Bitcoin UX:
- enter the recipient address
- verification of correct information
- sent
- received

What is escrow?
It’s a financial arrangement where a third party holds and regulates payment of the funds required for two parties involved in a transaction.
It’s absolutely vital for trust and security in every financial transaction.

Today, I’ve been using Grok AI instead of ChatGPT to help me code.
Grok has potential, but GPT4 is way better at working with code.
Also it would be nice if grok had its own page instead of being stuffed into the X interface, and chat history.
