Brendo and I are golfers...not great golfers, but we try. So, when MirbooHodl / GreatGrandMan (Dom. A Nostr maxi. Npub below) reached out a couple of weeks ago about a Golf meets Bitcoin project – 88 Sats – we wanted to talk about it.

I’ll be honest and say there were a couple of red flags, but after some back and forth over Nostr DM’s we realised that Dom was an open book and was happy for us to question the maxi credentials of the project.

More than anything, this a pod about community building in a Bitcoin world. We discuss:

Can 88 bitcoiners buy a golf course
How long will it take and how to store the Bitcoin until then
Why 1 Aussie “oddball” from Victoria wants to own a golf course in Canada
Running golf tournaments with Satoshi prizes
Creating a Bitcoin only community and a circular economy
