Huge gratitude to Smashtoshi and all of the 128 artists who contributed to the Bitcoin History art book It is truly a masterpiece And not only have they put in tremendous effort to document the history of bitcoin, they are also focused on preserving the future by making independent bitcoin education the beneficiary of the auction They are the heroes we need Just three hours left to bid!

The Bitcoin History book auction, which ends in 6 hours and benefits independent bitcoin education, is incredibly important Why? Education is always captured by whoever funds it, this is a big part of why education as a whole is broken and teaches us what to think, rather than how to think (and why financial literacy is so low around the world) At @npub17cya...4ml3 we are creating a proof-of-concept for a new way forward by rejecting all government and corporate money. We are funded by the community which currently manifests itself mostly via grants and individual donations but we need to continue to expand that and auctions such as this are showing us the way We need more auctions that benefit independent bitcoin education. We need more initiatives that shave off a percent of profit and funnel it into something the community both controls and benefits from (such as a bitcoin ETF fees to @OpenSats ) Introductory bitcoin education needs to create different funding models to create the right incentives. It's still early enough that we can entrench new norms--otherwise we risk falling into the same trap that fiat education has and thus blunting some of the revolutionary potential of bitcoin There's 6 hours left on this auction. Let's blow this up. Tell your friends, place a bid, share this Let's fucking go!
