Robbie’s unique blend of creative lyrics and passionate beats will bring additional energy to the event, and we’re honoured to have him share his talents with us.
As everyone makes their way to Beechworth, we hope you have a safe and smooth journey. We can’t wait to connect, learn, and share in the true spirit of the Bitcoin community.
An updated schedule is attached below, the final presentation schedule will be released in the coming days — stay tuned for more details.

Thank you for being part of what promises to be an unforgettable weekend. We’ll see you all very soon!

We’ve put together a diverse range of talks and sessions, each one aiming to deepen our understanding of Bitcoin. These presentations are not just about education, but about sparking conversations and building relationships that will strengthen our collective journey in the Bitcoin space.
Among the many insightful sessions, we’re especially looking forward to the Libertarian Party’s presentation, marking the first time a political party in Australia has shown a real interest in Bitcoin. Jordan Dittloff, the lead Victorian senate candidate, will be there to discuss the first Australian Bitcoin Policy that was recently launched at the Bitcoin Alive conference in Sydney. This policy was crafted alongside the Bitcoiner community by a regular Bush Basher, and it’s

There were many great presentations but @bitshala stood out - they have done an incredible amount in two years and their passion was infectious. It was inspiring and made me want to contribute more. Speaking of...
An ice cream and coffee shop with a dedicated area for bitcoin events has been on my mind. Three of my favorite things! Building a space like that seems somewhat ridiculous in the middle-of-no-where Japan but @btcschellingpt said he would come for ice cream so it'd be worth it 😄
Plus there is only one lonely shop on the entire island of Kyushu that accepts Bitcoin - building a circular economy has to start somewhere.

As I was walking by they were working in a large garden. We had a chat and they said they moved from the city four years ago to start farming. In their 70s.
The husband said each day is hard and I asked what he had did before - he said he worked in semiconductors. The guy retired from what was likely a lucrative career and he and his wife decided to take up farming. In their 70s.
I can't stop thinking about it. No one decides to take up farming when they retire. Most people probably just watch some TV, read a few books and travel. These two decided to try their hand at farming & they seemed happy to be out working the land. In their 70s.
Incredible.

Redesigned wallet screen, fiat rates, improved performance and storage reliability. And new golden theme for true gold bugs - until we'll get gold ecash!
This is a native release so upgrade from Google Play or grab it from our Github.

- I love that I have my own instance of mempool.
- Sparrow testing up next

“Green energy producers have to operate their businesses on the assumption that part of the power they generate is wasted,” he said. “If bitcoin were to provide a new source of income, that would prompt more green energy to be introduced.”

I'm on Starlink which means I don't have any wired connections available - there aren't any on the router. Which means I can't change my country in the settings as it requires a wired connection - not a big issue but I thought it was interesting.
I was able to get wifi up and running without too much issue.
So far so good. Once I've got the whole blockchain downloaded - it's kind of mindblowing to think I'll have every Bitcoin transaction that has ever occurred sitting on my laptop - I'll move on to setting up a Lightning node & Nostr relay.
Not sure what else I'll try out - having my own mempool instance sounds good too.

- go to duckduckgo
- open their AI chat thing
- choose one of 4 models (got 4o mini is great)
- chat with that thang
Free. No tracking. No accounts. Open source models included. Did I say free? And no accounts.
I have an OpenAI account but this is the only thing I've been using for a few weeks. Privacy feels great.

- Use the most recent phone you possibly can
- Upgrade your phone to the newest possible generation as soon as possible after release if you can help it.
- Use the latest version of GrapheneOS ASAP. Do not delay.
- Use a strong, high entropy passphrase to make bruteforcing the device credential impossible if secure element is ever exploited.
- Set GrapheneOS auto reboot time accordingly so encrypted data goes back at rest when the phone reboots, which makes AFU exploitation impossible. The lower the better.
- Enable duress password. Set it to something easy to trigger but not easy to misfire.
- Turn your phone

And now @calle 👁️⚡👁️ is talking about sending ecash over Signal and https connections over nostr and it sounds like it's pretty big. Where does this go? Do we end up with a completely decentalized internet that's similar to Bitcoin infrastructure where each node can join as they please? Run whatever rules they want? Censor (or not) as they see fit?
What infrastructure is being made obsolete right now?
