Hello Stacker News community!

I'm Hypnotic HODL (or Hypno), a husband, dad, and long-time online marketer based in the city of angels: Bangkok, Thailand.

I'm usually lurking on Nostr, you can find me at npub1rgy6uu2haeaey2nh5hhs85zjvd486cs5wegrv0unjw5na33y0gjsjhe3y3.

Class of 2017 (yes, I shitcoined a bit first).

I enjoy tinkering with technology: running nodes (MyNode, Start9), experimenting with ASIC mining, and exploring various hardware and software wallets (BTC, LN, and cashu). Next on my list is playing with a Bitaxe Gamma 601.

I read extensively. Bitcoin pushed me from fiction into non-fiction. I started with The Bitcoin Standard by Saifedean Ammous. And then so many of the classics. Currently, I'm reading Bitcoin Is Venice by Allen Farrington and Sacha Meyers.

My latest project is focused on metal seed phrase backups.

I enjoy playing with AI and have developed several other sites, including:

I'm an advocate for financial sovereignty, and privacy, mostly by using Bitcoin. And I recently published (in French): stopeuronumerique.com to raise awareness about the European CBDC that's coming.
