  • When the fundraiser is successfully funded (or at least reaches 80%), I’ll learn more about p2pool and give it a try. I assume it doesn’t require a high-spec PC. (Though it might leave me problem regarding internet connection haha, we don’t have WiFi, but maybe I can use a prepaid WiFi instead.)

    Mastodon seems like a good alternative to Twitter. Thanks for the suggestions.

    Yes, I do have a way, but it’s not really convenient. I can bridge Monero to BCH, and then convert BCH into our fiat using Zapit Wallet’s P2P Marketplace. Or I can just use a CEX like Binance (or if there’s a noncustodial exchange I can find)



  • This might be a long read…

    I had heard of Bitcoin before but never really bothered to learn about it. One day, I joined an FB group where people shared different ways to earn money online. That’s when I stumbled upon noise.cash, a microblogging site that used to tip Bitcoin Cash (now rebranded as noise.app).

    Using noise.cash, I started to learn about cryptocurrencies and found another platform called read.cash. While using noise.cash, I also discovered the SmartBCH Chain, which was a sidechain of BCH.

    Learning about SmartBCH Chain and NFTs got me interested in other coins and blockchain networks. I became a fan of BCH’s mission, a peer-to-peer electronic cash system and found out there were other coins with similar goals, although I didn’t actively support them.

    Then I discovered cashrain.com, an airdrop platform where you could ‘rain’ BCH on your followers, during it’s alpha testing (yeah, I’m like an airdrop hunter haha). The platform was a cheap way to boost your social accounts. There, I found Anne media, and followed them on Twitter, and then they announced their crowdfunding platform called Kuno, which supported Monero and had no fees.

    To be honest, fundraising wasn’t my plan. I feel too embarrassed to ask strangers for their money. But I eventually decided to give it a try after thinking it was a chance and something I can take advantage of to help myself.
