Today is Mi_Primer_Bitcoin_El_Salvador (npub17cy…4ml3)'s birthday!
Three years ago today the website was registered, marking the first public record of the organization
I am overwhelmed at the success of the project in three short years--much of which was spent building in a bear market. In three short years this project has taught tens of thousands of students, open-sourced education materials and processes, and inspired front-line bitcoin educators in 25+ countries around the world who have joined a self-governing decentralized network of independent education 'nodes'
All of this has been accomplished without compromising values nor taking money with strings attached--mostly being grassroots funded with underpaid or volunteer staff
And we are just getting started. We are pioneering a proof-of-concept that another way is possible. Independent bitcoin education is the means, the end is a re-imagined future
Happy Birthday!!!
