Some notes on this:

Every morning I get up and work for bitcoin, but this is a a bit more literal... 😜 As many of you know I build and sell signers as a way to get them into more people's hands, and to support my individual work on our project. The revenue from the signers and other things I sell in my online shop (https://btc-hardware-solutions.square.site; Entropia, Go Kits, SeedKeepers, etc.) is how I'm able to cover expenses related to the project, and to travel to conferences and meetups where I can share information on SeedSigner and what I've learned during my personal bitcoin journey relative to cold storage, given my unique background. Here and there I'm also able to help cover some of our family's expenses.

When we recently transitioned to a new approach to user donations at https://donate.seedsigner.com I intentionally withdrew myself as a donation recipient. I wanted our most active technical contributors to be the ones benefitting from donations, directly receiving periodic digital monetary expressions of gratitude over time as the project grows and reaches more and more bitcoiners. (As a side note -- if you're a user or otherwise receiving value from our project, I'd encourage you to send some sats their way via the above URL.)

As for myself, I've always offered to sell signers p2p for bitcoin via DMs / email, but for a long time I've been wanting to level up in that regard. Over the last weeks I've finally gotten a proper LN node set up, where I also run btcpayserver (npub155m…dcvg) and a modest (for now) web presence. I need to express a lot of gratitude to Printer Go₿rrr ⚡ (npub1l5p…4q0n), dimi (npub1r7p…nspg) and Start9 (npub126n…e9ll) for their help as I've worked to become more of a 1st class bitcoin citizen.

With planned trips to Nashville, Atlanta, and Amsterdam to represent the project on the horizon, I'm looking to stack some sats that will help me continue to spread the SeedSigner gospel of a more trustless, more self-reliant approach to saving with bitcoin. So I've set up this small online store where I'll be selling some of the items from my Square shop for sats. I'm starting with milled aluminum signers (kudos to MoneroTime (npub1l2x…6ndl) for his continued amazing work on these enclosures) and I'm offering a small discount and free protective case for paying with bitcoin.

If you've been looking for the right opportunity to upgrade your SeedSigner experience, or if you've been waiting for a decent deal on one, please consider supporting my work in this way -- the URL is below.

Otherwise, a big thank you all for the kindness and support that so many bitcoiners have shown me over the last couple of years -- I hope to get to shake your hand at an event soon. 🧡🙏
