jb55 (npub1xts…kk5s) shares the struggles of keeping the Damus dream alive and how this could potentially be its last year.

quoting note1l2s…p5ke

This will likely be the last year of damus. Will try my best to make this thing sustainable, but nostr clients don’t make money and I once funding runs dry its over as I can only burn saving for so long. Glad I was able to help play a small part in this regardless of what happens. Going to give it my all next year to try to keep the dream alive. Thanks for coming along for the ride ✌️

This trip is vital in their Bitcoin adoption growth, enhancing their community's financial and conservation efforts!

quoting note1u2m…yjag

Help us cover the female Mamba rangers’ travel costs to Adopting Bitcoin Cape Town Conference (npub1p0x…deeh) ! 🌟

🙏🏼 Please donate to or share our geyser (npub1kmw…xqk9) fundraiser:
Https://geyser.fund/project/theblackmambas/

➡️ Through our izindlovufund (npub19vz…fwka) collaboration with Hermann from bitcoinekasi (npub1zkr…k6ec) they will also be able to visit the Bitcoin Ekasi Center to explore what a bitcoin circular economy could mean for themselves and their own community.

➡️ We need around 6.300.000 Sats to get 4 members of their team to the conference.
If we can not raise that much, we will try to get 2 members. If we would be able to raise more, the funds will be used to fund the community with sats.

➡️ The @blackmambasapu participation will enable them to gain insights into adopting the Bitcoin technology for enhanced financial and transactional security within their local communities together with responsability for protecting their wildlife environment in a sustainable way.

. fiatjaf (npub180c…h6w6) has a lot of awesome nostr projects that don’t get enough attention:

- khatru: super modular relay library. Can be used to build lots of cool relay experients such as https://pyramid.fiatjaf.com

- Nostr-tools: the swiss army knife of nostr javascript libraries https://github.com/nbd-wtf/nostr-tools
- Nak: command line tool for creating nostr events and bech32 nostr objects (nevent, nprofile) https://github.com/fiatjaf/nak
- wikistr: a wikipedia-style nostr client https://github.com/fiatjaf/wikistr

he doesn’t always like being in the spotlight but the work he does is some of the most important for the overall health of the protocol. thank you fiatjaf! Excited for what’s in store for next year 🎉
