I couldn't agree more. Bitfest was a reboot of the sorts of events that first inspired me to work on bitcoin. No corp/political agendas, cliques or vip nonesense, just peers hanging and exchanging ideas. View quoted note →

It’s so odd that for most jobs, you’re required to have a bank account so your employer can pay your hard-earned money into it, and then, by the bank’s good grace, you’re allowed to access the money you actually earned. While the private bank recklessly mismanages your money and surveils your spending. A weird and recent arrangement dressed up as normal and inevitable. Fuck banks.

I hate that stupid soothing voice some ceo types cosplay. Like the mfs are doing some guided meditation, once you notice them do it, you can't stop.

Thank you organizers of #bitfest! It was an absolutely cracking conference: speakers, attendees, venue, vibe, everything 👌 . No corp nonesense, just type of excellent peers that inspired me early on in #bitcoin. Exactly what #bitcoin/#nostr needs. Og style mf #bitfest 😍
