2-Bit Idiots

Lurk on Twitter – Tick 
Attend a BushBash – Tick 
Wearing the Bitcoin Alive T-Shirt – Tick 
What next - Maybe it’s time for you to cross the ditch? 
 
We sit down Paul and Dan (2/3 of the Bit Kiwi movement) to find out exactly how things are in New Zealand (Paraparaumu) at grass roots level, the projects they are involved in and hear just how loose meetups are in Auckland. We also discuss: 


Getting children to buy beer to gain KYC free sats ;-) 

Remembering Anon's names in real life 

Getting into Bitcoin with your childhood friends and becoming a maximalist within a few months 

Showing up at a CRYpTocurrEnCy shit show, showed them the need to create a Bitcoin only alternative 

The secrets to being a “professional” podcaster 

Attending their first meetup in Auckland inspiring the creation of Bit Kiwi, which started in Wellington, then Christchurch but is now going national and becoming an event 

Using lightning to engage new bitcoiners 

A meetup library and a lightning ATM 

Orange-pilling your family 

Running an S19 in your house and heating your swimming pool with immersion mining, and using 0% government loans to pay for it 

Being accused of being in a cult in work meetings 

The Wellington Elbow and the Sleeve of Shame 

Cost of living in NZ
