  • Robosats has been quiet. Maybe too quiet. (Stupid Airplane! Reference) There aren’t many orders. The sell orders are still outpacing the buys, but the gap is narrowing. With the small sample size no conclusions should probably be drawn.
  • I saw a new asset used yesterday– a Brazilian AirBNB gift card. Speaking of Brazil, it still amazes me how high a percentage of trades take place using the Brazilian Real. I wonder if a local community is running an instance? I hope so.
  • Yesterday I mentioned having trouble connecting to the Simplex support group. @signal312 set me straight, suggesting I use this link: https://t.me/robosats/43828 It worked fine. I must have been doing something wrong.
  • @simplestacker and @optimism are offering to look into automating the data. I know @optimism has already done some work on this in the past. Maybe we can make this a more useful, collaborative post.

I think this (Robosats) will be one of the "success stories" during the next bull market

I'm shocked at how little this is being used in comparison to the volume of Sats exchanged within KYC systems.
Do people just not know???

It's not easy to trade. There is a learning curve. The experience is not necessarily smooth. Robosats needs more liquidity. You can wait a while for a transaction to even be accepted. And yes, I don't think it is well known yet either.
All that being said, I am optimistic that it is the future. Things will speed up on robosats when the Coinbase honeypot is breached.

That or the sheep will fall into the next centralized honeypot scam.
It would seem the masses prefer KYC and police-state environments.

As a Brazilian, I say that the community is more made up of people who want to protect their money from the state. We still don't have one, or I don't see one in my circle, even though I've already presented it. For now, we have some experiences of circular economy that are public, one in Rolante/RS and another in Santo Antônio do Pinhal/SP.
reply
Thanks for the ground level information. Do you know much about those two public circular economies? Could they be running an instance?
reply
Both are tourist cities with many businesses that are adopting bitcoin. Rolante has been doing this for a longer time and Santo Antonio is newer to the adoption, as far as I know. Here are the project websites:

I don't know if there are members of the communities here in SN.
