the best thing is making new friends everywhere in the world. i’ve realized that my favorite way to build relationships is through shared projects, and btc++ has been an amazingly great one to expand my friend graph.

the worst part is all the stress about how to pay for them. i’ve been very lucky to have countless other sponsors and supporters who show up to help make the events possible. if this is you, a million thanks for showing up to participate and make these events possible. here’s to hoping the bull market makes sponsorships an easier thing for partner orgs to say yes to 😅 we started in the 2022 bull run and its been a long bear market to make it through (but we did it, thanks to our friends and community) ❤️
