I want:

  • to work in the open
  • to work with other creative people who share a vision
  • others to have their own interests, skillsets, and values
  • others to be able to work on other things that are of interest
  • help others realize their goals and dreams
  • to explore the social part of socio-technical systems
  • to bring to life cybernetic theories that were vibrant in the 60's
  • to share content with others
  • to work in an agile, iterative way
  • to practice personal discipline
  • to practice group discipline
  • to build using a blockchain as a public ledger
  • to support technologies that yield transparency as a byproduct
  • to have fun

Enjoyed this? — any BSV wallet, HandCash, or plain old dollars.

Leave a tip

Tips go directly to a Bitcoin SV address I control — peer to peer, no platform in between. A few thousand satoshis is a fraction of a cent; it's the gesture that counts.

From any BSV wallet

Scan the QR code with your wallet's camera, or copy the address.

With HandCash or any paymail wallet

Paymail is an email-style address for Bitcoin wallets. Send any amount to afomi@handcash.io

First time using Bitcoin? Yours Wallet is an open-source browser extension wallet, and HandCash is an easy mobile wallet — either takes a minute to set up.
