An evening in the tea fields of Malawi.

Decided to test some solar at our place in Nairobi. Here we have 2 of our Whatsminer M31s running off of 8kW of solar, running through 8 batteries (20kWH) to give us approx 2 more hours of hashing each day. Will check the real numbers later, but we’re going to see if we can get 10+ hours per day off this setup.

Out for a muddy walk with the little dude.

Ok, very interested in this NIP for p2p trading of Bitcoin using Nostr.

GitHub

docs: nip p2p trading by nicolasburtey · Pull Request #405 · nostr-protocol/nips

very first draft of a p2p trading spec. more work is needed but early feedback would be appreciate to see who else can be interested by this nip.

Need this badly. Will figure out how to get African engineers on it too.

Damn, Paxful going down sucks for Africans. Looking forward to the Nostr and Bitcoin “roll your own” p20 Bitcoin future. Is it #noones?

A good day out. Lake Magadi, Kenya.

Whenever I fly above a nighttime America I’m always amazed, stunned, inspired by the amount of capital and infrastructure in this country. So many cities that are alone larger in infrastructure than whole countries elsewhere.

I was in SF March 2020 when Trump closed international flights to the US. I was in SF March 2023 when SVB imploded. Guess I should stop visiting SF…

Back in the US. I'm in SF for a couple days, then Tennessee. Philip is off to Houston for Empower conference. Busy times!

Had a good day checking out some geothermal in Kenya. A lot of opportunities in that space for mining.
