Following a flurry of announcements this morning on @bitcoinhodlco, I'd encourage everyone to read about what our business actually is, and how we want to build it. Have a read of our website (link below) and the summary here. TLDR: We want to be integral to the Lightning

If you listen to the mainstream media you will miss out on the world's greatest opportunities. On April 3, 2013, when 1 bitcoin was worth $138 dollars, the FT said bitcoin was on its way to becoming the next bubble, comparing it tulips, the South Sea Company, and the dotcom

For an organisation that is supposed to 'educate, inform and entertain', it's not saying very much when the best of these three mandates is satisfied by BBC officials being hoist with their own petards.....

It's extraordinarily embarrassing that @Moneybox , on the national broadcaster, still releases material such as “Bitcoin is like Stevenson’s rocket; it just sits there and burns coal,” and, “it takes an hour to complete a transaction." The Lightning network has been processing

Today we're talking about cryptocurrencies. Some people treat them as an investment, others as a bit of a flutter, and many others are trying to understand it all. We'll explain crypto - and look at the risks👇 https://t.co/ewLDgR9NXu

Also systematic bias in virtually every story @BBCNews writes about Bitcoin. Virtually impossible to find anything remotely accurate on the subject on the national broadcaster.

Why I Write as DownWithBigBrother By DownWithBigBrother People often ask why I chose this name. Why Orwell? Why 1984? Why are you Down with Big Brother? The answer is that George Orwell saw the pattern. He didn’t predict every detail of the future, but he understood the

We’re getting a kind of inverse Chinese firewall scenario, where the world is just blocking us out because they don’t want the risk of servicing UK citizens.

Absolutely ridiculous. "unavailable-uk" says it all. This isn't remotely connected to an investment product of any kind; and yet @Ledger still feel it's not safe for them to let UK customers see this page. @LucyRigby this is no way to tell the world we are open for business

Tomorrow @Square launches bitcoin payments at thousands of merchants. Let’s have some fun. Tag us in a video paying with Primal Wallet and we'll zap you 21,000 sats. Best video gets 210,000 sats! 👀

Thank you to everyone who served. Thanks to my friends in the forces (on this app and elsewhere). To my grandfather, great uncle, great-grandfather and to everyone else who fought for our freedom. We must never forget them, or that what they fought for is still under threat.

@freddienew @Ledger @LucyRigby Creating an environment in which the risk of informing being interpreted as marketing is deemed too high to undertake… A very material regulatory own-goal and a hangover from the previous government that is so easy to reverse and turn into a PR win.
