hello @felicityhannah.bsky.social

please see this message from Freddie New regarding your Money Box episode this week

hi @wendling.bsky.social
regarding your latest article on BBC.

Here's a critique and some wise words from Daniel Batten, a climate researcher. BBC just wrote a piece on Bitcoin mining which contains not only many factual errors, but also many errors by omission. Here's where it falls short.

Report card is in:

Hello @katie0martin.ft.com

Here is a visual explainer of why your teeth are useless as money

Outrageous.

The FT markets columnist, @katie0martin.ft.com, makes a point of bitcoin ignorance in 2025.

Martin has covered bitcoin for 7 + years at the FT and still, openly, does not get it.

This is 100% real, not AI, (except end, lol).

I cut together her comments from a video essay below.

Awesome piece Joe! Did you go there?

I visited a Gridless mining site in the Kenyan bush recently to make a video.

One thing I would suggest avoiding is writing the “bitcoin mining uses as much energy as X”.

It’s misleading and was propagated to confuse people

That’s false and rather lazy,
@BBC

1) Bitcoin is legal in Saudi Arabia 🇸🇦

2) holding btc is legal in China 🇨🇳
The state treats bitcoin as personal property.

Trading & transacting btc is banned although it’s ofc near impossible to enforce.

Do better.

Good morning and happy Genesis Block Day
