Leave a comment below to let the SN community know what you're working on this week. It doesn't matter how big or small your project is, or how much progress you've made.
Just share what you're up to, and let the community know if you want any feedback or help.
Still on that refactor drip. Most of what's left are automatic retries of failed payments, overhauls of rewards/analytics/satistics to use the new schema, and migrating all the old data.
new to all of this i essentailly have the average persons understanding of btc other than knowing its sound money.
I want to get out there and grow so im studying NOSTR
Also looking for asymetrical opportunities like MSTR and something even more in its infancy
Bitcoin is still in its infancy, you are early, and bitcoin is plenty risky still. Don't get distracted by other things if you can help it.
If you get distracted anyway, remember this reply in four years. It might save you from getting distracted again.
Spaces Protocol Scalable & Permissionless Bitcoin Identities
Spaces empowers users with a sovereign Bitcoin identity, anchored securely on the Bitcoin blockchain. Imagine a social handle that is truly yours—censorship-resistant and accessible across various protocols like Nostr, wallet naming, peer-to-peer applications, and beyond.
That’s one of the most important questions,
Couldn't respond right away, but I'm still working on my Satsera project, and the natural part of building something meaningful is, progress often feels slower than we’d like. But every step, even the frustrating ones, brings us closer to the breakthrough.
A Liquidity Flow Model For Onramp — From Centralized to DecentralizedA Liquidity Flow Model For Onramp — From Centralized to Decentralized
Bitcoin adoption in Malawi faces a major bottleneck: there’s no reliable way to swap Malawi Kwacha (MWK) into Bitcoin. Exchanges don’t serve the local market, mobile money operators don’t offer a bridge, and the only option left is decentralized peer-to-peer trades. I believe that, without a simple on-ramp service, sats remain out of reach for everyday people.
Satsera is being designed to fix this, by acting as the easiest bridge between MWK cash and or mobile money (Airtel Money, TNM Mpamba) and the Bitcoin (Lightning Network). Once liquidity flows through Satsera, individuals can graduate into reliable P2P exchange platforms like Mostro
Here’s a possible liquidity flow model, based on my heartfelt experience, my little knowledge and my great passion for adoption.
1. Stage One: Satsera as the Seed On-Ramp1. Stage One: Satsera as the Seed On-Ramp
Since every market needs a starting point, in Malawi, that starting point will be Satsera.
At this stage, Satsera is the counterparty — providing reliability and trust while the market grows.
2. Stage Two: Gradual Peer-to-Peer Transition2. Stage Two: Gradual Peer-to-Peer Transition
Once enough users hold and use sats, P2P trading becomes natural.
Individuals who already stack sats can offer liquidity to others.
Satsera becomes the initial liquidity seeder but slowly hands over the market to individuals.
3. Stage Three: Mostro P2P Exchange3. Stage Three: Mostro P2P Exchange
With a base of liquidity and users, the market matures into open P2P exchange.
Monstro provides the platform for individuals to post offers, negotiate spreads, and trade sats for MWK directly.
Satsera’s role shifts to onboarding, from education (proudly provided by Bitcoin Boma) while Mostro handles decentralized liquidity.
The network is no longer dependent on a single counterparty, but rather liquidity becomes peer-driven and antifragile.

5. Why This Matters5. Why This Matters
This model balances trust and decentralization:
In the early stage, Satsera guarantees that trades work and sats actually arrive.
In the long run, liquidity isn’t dependent on one entity — it spreads across individuals through Mostro.
The endgame is true peer-to-peer MWK ↔ BTC liquidity, with Satsera as the ignition spark.
Closing ThoughtClosing Thought
The liquidity problem in Malawi won’t be solved by foreign exchanges or corporate partnerships. It will be solved by locals using cash or mobile money to stack sats, and eventually trading peer-to-peer on P2P platforms like Mostro.
Satsera lights the fire, the community keeps it burning.
Thanks for any kind of help.
Live/comments maintenance and better content creation. I'm actually happy that I'm still doing maintenance because it's leading to an overall better product, and that makes me feel good.
reading nostr NIPs!
Staying humble, stacking sats. Moving them to cold storage and UTXO consolidation.
Reading Fiat Food!
Yer mamma.
