I guess I&#39;m bad at filling up the forms. <br/><br/>Every other requirement checks out - it is a FOSS educational non-profit indie project aimed at preserving Bitcoin history and helping people learn about the importance of open protocols, sound money and freedom tech. <br/><br/>I understand that you guys have a lot on your plate and projects that solve technical problems probably get more credit, but I believe preserving history is important to ensure we do not make same mistakes in the future. <br/><br/>I&#39;d appreciate it if you could give me an advice here, Matt.

Even got a check mark to get more reach (or rather to not get shadow banned). Set up a bot to post historical Bitcoin events. <br/><br/>To be honest, it’s not working out as I expected. I did have a bump along the road - my bot broke down and 2 weeks were wasted. I do try to comment on some posts and engage apart from automated posts, but I do not enjoy the platform, so it drains my resources a lot. <br/><br/>Wonder what you’re thinking about my experiment. Is it even worth a shot (and almost 5k sats a month)? 2025-10-13T15:04:56Z https://njump.cloud.vinney.xyz/nevent1qqs96ygpmzel8cckznz8uya3vtpy05kn3egz694nm9rfyqwv547w39gzyp0rhajfjp627sd6uw9q3mdxgfzawly6g945fnuc0y4ceyq2h8sqjkkyrzs 🪦 Bitcoin Obituary<br/><br/>On October 13, 2017, Larry Fink, CEO of BlackRock, called Bitcoin an index of money laundering. <br/><br/>&#34;Bitcoin just shows how great the demand for money laundering is.&#34; Seven years later, Fink launched the largest Bitcoin ETF in the world. <br/><br/> <img src="https://haven.bitcoin-calendar.org/5c7383bcc1fa8ab6c7a6e502b7c5ffd12ed02a6ec513600c6124257c3882f2c5.webp"> <br/><br/><a href="https://bitcoin-calendar.org/en/events/2017-10-13/bitcoin-obituary">https://bitcoin-calendar.org/en/events/2017-10-13/bitcoin-obituary</a> 2025-10-13T08:00:02Z https://njump.cloud.vinney.xyz/nevent1qqstjy8udr6lfkh7c2ex2y8ppdy9gqew37zncxltalr6uy6r6kxzdfczyp0rhajfjp627sd6uw9q3mdxgfzawly6g945fnuc0y4ceyq2h8sqj9u7xnw Just checked out <span itemprop="mentions" itemscope itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a itemprop="url" href="/npub1pm5z0gmw3wcvl3yreuv8y7q3stz2zmzc4jar4ckhk927qdcwjwuq3txe07" class="bg-lavender dark:prose:text-neutral-50 dark:text-neutral-50 dark:bg-garnet px-1"><span>hal</span> (<span class="italic">npub1pm5…xe07</span>)</a></span> .

I built a bot to post to X hoping it could educate some newbies and give them a chance to avoid shitcoinery. <br/><br/>I actually launched a month ago, but had some technical issues with the bot, so there was a couple weeks gap in posts. Back up now.<br/><br/>What I noticed the most is that algos suck. It is very hard to get discovered on Twitter being new, even with a paid checkmark. <br/><br/>I try to comment some stuff once in a while, but as you said, that space is a disaster. <br/><br/>I’ll give it a few more month of trying and make a call then. <br/><br/><a href="https://x.com/bitcal_21ideas">https://x.com/bitcal_21ideas</a> 2025-10-12T09:41:16Z https://njump.cloud.vinney.xyz/nevent1qqsgmq2t7gfwa88g59k2syh34rn7anl93rslrtz830qnlusp7uta3xqzyp0rhajfjp627sd6uw9q3mdxgfzawly6g945fnuc0y4ceyq2h8sqjr7zdpk 💵 First Bitcoin to Fiat Exchange<br/><br/>On October 12, 2009, a user with the nickname Sirius (known to us today as Martti Malmi) sold 5,050 BTC to New Liberty Standard for $5.02 via PayPal.<br/><br/> <img src="https://haven.bitcoin-calendar.org/0d822e75f05ab9120ab33e373132980e9eaae901960d8e52c75c90c3b21a871c.webp"> <br/><br/><a href="https://bitcoin-calendar.org/en/events/2009-10-12/first-bitcoins-to-fiat-exchange">https://bitcoin-calendar.org/en/events/2009-10-12/first-bitcoins-to-fiat-exchange</a> 2025-10-12T08:00:02Z https://njump.cloud.vinney.xyz/nevent1qqsrtvw3enl84l059hqe67jgey7w7jrxgg48z0xt3ext7ql4tal8egszyp0rhajfjp627sd6uw9q3mdxgfzawly6g945fnuc0y4ceyq2h8sqjg3ufqt This reply in <span itemprop="mentions" itemscope itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a itemprop="url" href="/nprofile1qyfhwumn8ghj7anpw4k8gtnfwf5hxtn5duqzq3frhevd89d3kxt2nwxg9vpck6y4evptdq7scff6j4gx3kapltxs8cp55g" class="bg-lavender dark:prose:text-neutral-50 dark:text-neutral-50 dark:bg-garnet px-1"><span>Sirius</span> (<span class="italic">nprofile…p55g</span>)</a></span> &#39;s bitcointalk thread offering a1000 BTC bounty to whoever orangepills a large business back in 2011 didn&#39;t age well 😆<br/><br/> <img src="https://haven.bitcoin-calendar.org/43d1a99125c34289bc416f0f23e0230cd2f22d665bcd6d6afb3ef05a21c94bfe.png"> <br/><br/><a href="https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=46646.msg557188#msg557188">https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=46646.msg557188#msg557188</a> 2025-10-11T16:37:28Z https://njump.cloud.vinney.xyz/nevent1qqstrq9u265m7g62tczvp3p0wykw4c6ewnqcudd6ys43sdwlnfgfuggzyp0rhajfjp627sd6uw9q3mdxgfzawly6g945fnuc0y4ceyq2h8sqjrwa3mk In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqstcg46k4x0aw8a8utmesmz3pstv8xg33dsrkg2xzd0v8f6v3rdnqgpzemhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuurjd9kkzmpwdejhg892vql'>nevent1q…2vql</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Caught a nice &#34;How it started - how it&#39;s going&#34; vibe<br/><br/> <img src="https://haven.bitcoin-calendar.org/26e28392aec8ac9af6f58ef1f9907ca3e468e0cafaf803e51fe11b14a0bcfa40.png"> <br/><br/><a href="https://archive.bitcoin-calendar.org/archive/1749204402.112055/www.cnbc.com/2017/10/13/blackrock-ceo-larry-fink-calls-bitcoin-an-index-of-money-laundering.html">https://archive.bitcoin-calendar.org/archive/1749204402.112055/www.cnbc.com/2017/10/13/blackrock-ceo-larry-fink-calls-bitcoin-an-index-of-money-laundering.html</a> 2025-10-11T16:16:20Z https://njump.cloud.vinney.xyz/nevent1qqszp0sl5jr57ukl9s0dqhyv6zmqkyjzl495ymrspcgxf4e9pe3jwyqzyp0rhajfjp627sd6uw9q3mdxgfzawly6g945fnuc0y4ceyq2h8sqjf5ka4h In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqswhjecwhjqg688e56k2et4xjcxcxuswrgh77aksjcu770k584j20gpr9mhxue69uhhq7tjv9kkjepwve5kzar2v9nzucm0d5cduk6x'>nevent1q…uk6x</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>GM Derek!
