Hello World

What's up Hive folk?!

Just wanted to introduce myself. I am a ₿itcoin maximalist who, after unsuspectingly being orange-pilled, has decided to devote my work to open-source decentralized technologies 🚀

the one and true @buttcoins , someone I'm honored to call a friend, is probably the only person who has gotten me to join a social network in years as my tendency has been to unsubscribe, but that's been with the attention-sucking parasitic platforms. I am inspired by all I am seeing!

A bit about myself, I got into programming through engineering & physics and then entered back into the world through web development making it a goal to find a stack of dependable software that can replicate a common layman's digital "stack", but through self-hosted open-source alternatives to serve local communities. I believe in a free and equal economy for all to realize their inherent value. Currently my goals is to lay roots and start a land project somewhere in the world.

Thanks to the unique environment that is the Lake Atitlán community in Guatemala, the "Bitcoinmat" project, a 2-way KYC-free Bitcoin ATM, emerged. It was inspired by the Mastering Lightning by the famous Andreas M. Antonopoulos where the Lamassu open-source Bitcoin ATM was mentioned. It currently resides in San Marcos La Laguna. I have a strong belief that the path of least resistance from the old world to the new can be probed out with the help of these machines by offering an accessible on/off ramp, staying true to Bitcoin philosophy, to people who stand to benefit from it the most.

Awesome to be part of the grass-roots movement that is happening around the world, it's certainly an exciting time to be alive. Happy to be a part of this community and looking forward to connecting more with like-minded people so we can continue building cool futuristic shit 🚀

If there are any developers, especially lightning devs ⚡, but also javascript, etc who are interested in the Bitcoinmat Open-Source project, feel free to drop a note. I am still learning the ropes of this Hive ecosystem.

Also any (neo)vim psychos around here?

Welcome to the Monkey House my friend!
Thanks for the kind shout out!
Reach out with any questions whenever. I’m always happy to aide and share what little I’ve managed to grok around these Hive parts.
I have a feeling you will figure out the nooks and crannies much faster than i ever did!

Welcome to the Hive Brother! 💖

Welcome mate ^_^

A @buttcoins friend is a friend.

Building cool futuristic shit sounds just like rocketing.
I'm not a programmer or developer in any tech related stuff about Hive or similar. But I'm very curious in all if it and in my short time on Hive, I have understood tremendously more about Blockchain, decentralisation, Dapps, et cetera than I did before, stumbling in the dark. Hive is a great platform in my opinion. There is place for everyone. I hope you have found your new playground.

Lightning devs? @brianoflondon, are you one?

Njoy ⚡

🎉 Great to connect @growandbow ! I'm finally getting my hands back into the dirt... or at least close to them for now 😆 Currently living on a permaculture farm created by an aerospace engineer who claims to have worked for Richard Feynman, only one of the greatest physicists of all time!

Anyway, looks like we have a lot of shared interests. Looking forward to seeing any content you have to share 😎

Permacultur farm 🌱
That's really noice! Usually there's a lot to learn, eat and connect with life at farms like those <3
Where is the PC farm located? If I may ask.

Richard Feynman. I had to look it up. But then I remembered. Feynman! Wow! That's an interesting employer.

There is an upcoming event in Graz, Austria on May 1st that you may interested to attend.
And if there are still tickets available.

10 fresh "printed" tickets for you! https://peakd.com/hive-148309/@buzzparty/hive-creator-days-or-buzzparty-2025-or-graz-at-or-10-more-tickets-available

Otherwise, later during this year, and depending on your experience at Hive, mark the date of the great and most splendid HiveFest;
Most likely in the middle of Septtember, 10th - 15th.

Here's the latest post at the HiveFest Community. Coincidentally, that post is from ma gurl 😁
I'm not sure how to give a link that takes you straight to a community.

Any Qs?

Hey @padreug, welcome to Hive! It's great to have more developers here. I'm not a developer myself—at least not yet—but I work with some on various projects in Hive. I'm following you because I'm interested in seeing what you have to share.

Greetings from Mexico!

Btw, I met @buttcoins a couple of years ago and he is a great guy!


I've only just started participating on Github with open-source projects because it can be quite intimidating dealing with git and all.
I personally am obsessed with coding in a neovim environment, particularly, LazyVim. It's almost like playing a video game 😆
I tried crossing over to 3speak, but I get sent to a weird redirect that returns an empty JSON object 🤷‍♂️nice! great to connect @eddiespino :) Yeah, I'd love to start posting some content on coding coming up from a non-formal CS background.

edit: i see now they're having server issues, will check it out when it's back up 😎

Awesome!

neovim and Lazyvim sound great; I'll research them, because I'm not familiar.

3Speak should be back in an hour or two. There's an error in the server, and the developer should be able to fix it soon.
