Hey friends,

I want to be honest with you folks. I'm really having sleepless nights. As mentioned while enjoying the ride in the Stacker Saloon here: #1413610. Right now, I’m trying to build Bitcoin Study Hubs using just a phone. That’s it. No laptop. And it’s not by choice — mine was stolen months ago, and I haven’t been able to replace it.

I’m a Bitcoiner doing grassroots education work in rural communities, trying to building something real, offline, and resilient. Physical Bitcoin learning spaces for places where internet is unreliable and education is mostly theory. This work needs deep focus: writing and translating material (including Chichewa), structuring curriculum, preparing offline lessons, documenting proof of work, and coordinating people on the ground.

And honestly, part of what keep me going is knowing there are people out there whose work I respects deeply, and who I genuinely wish I could collaborate with, learn from, or build alongside — people like:

Bitcoin grew because people shared tools, time, and energy — often quietly, often under constraint. A laptop right now is pure energy input. If this resonates, your support matters more than you might think.

A basic, reliable laptop would changes everything. Not luxury — leverage. Better materials, faster output, clearer documentation, less burnout, more actual teaching. Simply: more proof of work per sat.

Bitcoin Study Hubs are community-led, local-language, learn-by-doing spaces. Independent hubs, aligned by shared Bitcoin values — like nodes. Phase 1 is about proving this works offline, under real constraints.

Before I wrapped this up, I want to say sorry to you my friends I may have bombarded with notifications. I known getting tagged like that can feel noisy or even annoying.
That wasn’t done lightly.

The truth is, this project is deeply shaped by learning from others. By reading your work, following your experiments, watching what you build, and understanding how you think. Bitcoin itself didn’t grow in isolation — it grew through shared ideas, shared tools, and people helping each other under real constraints. Expressing a desire to learn from, collaborate with, or get help from fellow stackers isn’t about clout or attention. It’s about acknowledging that this work stands on the shoulders of many others. For Bitcoin Study Hubs to work, that learning loop matters a lot.

So if the notifications was disruptive, I genuinely apologize. But I also felt it was important to be honest about how much this project depend on the broader community — and how grateful I am for it.

If this resonates, helping me get a laptop is one of the highest-impact ways to support. Sats help too. Tools help. Signal helps.

Bitcoin grew because people shared energy when it mattered. This is one of those moments.

With respect.
