Show Notes
Reed and Rev share meetup updates including Western Mass Bitcoin's successful first night at their new venue and the birth of a brand new meetup in Middletown, Connecticut before diving deep into Nostr as critical infrastructure for local Bitcoin communities. They make the case that posting meetup events on Nostr is a simple action that broadcasts to every Nostr-compatible event app simultaneously, cutting through the walled-garden fragmentation of Meetup.com, Luma, and Satlantis. The conversation then turns to the value-for-value leaderboard Reed built using his lightning node data, and how gamification, boosts, and zap-based reputation mechanics can surface high-signal...

Just found your show. I am really enjoying it. @oshi and I are trying to sort out how to display a lightning wallet that will contain sats from an "um" jar. Any ideas?

Would love to find a teammate for starting a Green Bay Wisconsin area meet up… I have the venue secured that accepts bitcoin. Contact All Shook Up Tavern or reach out to Rev Hodl to connect us.

Disregard my post about the talk on 4/21. MiBTC isn't doing the Tuesday talks anymore.

Great episode! Up here in Kitchener, Ontario, Canada we have an active farmers market culture with a strong cash is king culture. I’m wondering if anyone listening here is from my area and would like to help to orange pill these folks? Also the idea of insisting on denominating in Sats; I lived in Mexico for two months once and by the end of that short time I had started to think in Pesos. It doesn’t take long. Chee…

Keep up the good work gents! Really enjoy y'all's discussions and it's holding me over until I can get back to Lake Satoshi and listen to Rev speak his mind about all the things he has bouncing around in there! And hopefully someone will start boosting from South Alabama or Florida panhandle area with a meetup.

Also running a meetup out of a music venue would be a dream 🥹

I'm preparing to talk about nostr at a meetup, and I've been thinking about how people care more about stuff when it's easy to see how it's useful for them specifically. Everybody knows that feeling of "oh we don't use that website/app/platform anymore". I hadn't yet made the connection about planning meetups and events with nostr, and I like that example

Born in 1972, when I was kid living in Northern Ontario our local am station ran a « virtual » garage sale over the am radio waves every Sunday morning. It was awesome!
