EP85: The Wellington Elbow with @Bitkiwi1 and @satstothemoon

Lurk on Twitter – Tick  Attend a BushBash – Tick  Wearing the Bitcoin Alive T-Shirt – Tick  What next - Maybe it’s time for you to cross the ditch?    We sit down Paul and Dan (2/3 of the Bit Kiwi movement) to find out exactly how things are in New Zealand (Paraparaumu) at grass roots level, the projects they are involved in and hear just how loose meetups are in Auckland. We also discuss:  Getting children to buy beer to gain KYC free sats ;-)  Remembering Anon's names in real life  Getting into Bitcoin with your childhood friends and becoming a maximalist within a few months  Showing up at a CRYpTocurrEnCy shit show, showed them the need to create a Bitcoin only alternative  The secrets to being a “professional” podcaster  Attending their first meetup in Auckland inspiring the creation of Bit Kiwi, which started in Wellington, then Christchurch but is now going national and becoming an event  Using lightning to engage new bitcoiners  A meetup library and a lightning ATM  Orange-pilling your family  Running an S19 in your house and heating your swimming pool with immersion mining, and using 0% government loans to pay for it  Being accused of being in a cult in work meetings  The Wellington Elbow and the Sleeve of Shame  Cost of living in NZ  Contact Bitcoinmagazine@bitkiwi.co.nz if you want a copy of Bitcoin Magazine in New Zealand or Australia (issues 27 and 28).    Bit Kiwi Meetup Schedule  VI: 22nd Jul 2023.
