London Calling: #Teranode Goes Live on Main net: #blockchain week

Bitcoin, AI and Teranode: My London Blockchain Conference Preview

Hey everyone! I'm getting really excited about the upcoming London blockchain conference, and I wanted to share some thoughts about what's happening in the Bitcoin space right now and why this event is going to be so significant.

First off, if you're going to be in London or thinking about a last-minute trip, definitely check out blockchainacademy.info for all the event details. There are around 20 different events happening, and it's shaping up to be an incredible gathering of minds in the blockchain space.

One of the things I'm most excited about discussing at the conference is the current state of Bitcoin, particularly BSV and the Teranode network. What most people don't realize is that we're facing a serious supply crunch. With Teranode now live on mainnet and capable of processing a million transactions per second, the demand for Bitcoin as the gas that powers this network is growing rapidly, while the supply remains fixed at 21 million.

This is fundamentally different from speculative cryptocurrencies that lack real utility. I was just talking with my buddy Casey about how traders are getting absolutely wrecked trying to long and short these speculative markets. The reality is that the base layer Bitcoin protocol is what's solving real problems and creating real value.

I'm also looking forward to learning more about MNE (Money), the first gasless stablecoin, and diving deeper into why we need the BRC 100 protocol. One of my main questions for people like Jake Jones at Teranode is understanding the importance of having a universal protocol for Bitcoin going forward.

A major challenge we still need to overcome is the lack of payment rails for everyday Bitcoin transactions. Banks are blocking transactions and requiring unnecessary KYC processes, making mainstream adoption difficult. Until we solve this problem, we won't see the seamless integration of Bitcoin into daily life that we're all working toward.

On a personal note, I've upgraded my equipment for this trip with a new Sony vlogging camera and DJI audio system so I can capture professional interviews and content while I'm there. It's my first time using a real camera instead of just a phone, so it's a bit intimidating but exciting!

I'll be meeting up with a great group of people including Lex, L, Guido, Sebastian from Teranode, and about 28 others from our private Telegram group. I'm looking forward to sharing all these experiences with you through daily uploads during the conference.
