Hello Stacker News community!

I'm Hypnotic HODL (or Hypno), a husband, dad, and long-time online marketer based in the city of angels: Bangkok, Thailand.

I'm usually lurking on Nostr, you can find me at npub1rgy6uu2haeaey2nh5hhs85zjvd486cs5wegrv0unjw5na33y0gjsjhe3y3.

Class of 2017 (yes, I shitcoined a bit first).

I enjoy tinkering with technology: running nodes (MyNode, Start9), experimenting with ASIC mining, and exploring various hardware and software wallets (BTC, LN, and cashu). Next on my list is playing with a Bitaxe Gamma 601.

I read extensively. Bitcoin pushed me from fiction into non-fiction. I started with The Bitcoin Standard by Saifedean Ammous. And then so many of the classics. Currently, I'm reading Bitcoin Is Venice by Allen Farrington and Sacha Meyers.

I enjoy playing with AI and have developed several sites, including:

I'm currently working on a new project focused on metal seed phrase backups, set to launch soon.

I'm an advocate for financial sovereignty, and privacy, mostly by using Bitcoin. And I recently published (in French): stopeuronumerique.com to raise awareness about the European CBDC that's coming.
