## Resource

In this episode of YATA, Oshi and I kick off with real‑life coaching lessons from a sideline dust‑up at a 9U baseball game—using it to talk mindset, impulse control, and teaching kids to hustle. From there we read your value‑for‑value boosts, shout out first‑time and returning supporters, and dig into a great listener question: what’s our elevator pitch for getting small businesses to accept Bitcoin? We trade experiences trying to convince a local coffee shop (Square POS, we’re looking at you), land on the simplest hook—cut card fees and meet customers where they are—and swap practical ideas like leave‑behind brochures and short, owner‑friendly videos. We also hit Nostr tooling and security trade‑offs: Wisp’s recent UX choices, using remote signers like Amber and nsecBunker, browser signers like nos2x and Alby, plus why many of us prefer not to paste nsecs into every app. Then we zoom out to Bitcoin governance—op_return, “who controls Bitcoin,” and the tension between monetary use and storing arbitrary data—pointing listeners to a timely Mechanic interview. Along the way: meetups, Local Bitcoiners, streaming sats on Fountain, Obscura/Proton VPNs, and even a quick Beatles riff (I Feel Fine). As always, send your questions, pitches, and meetup tips—this show runs on your boosts and notes. 'What Bitcoin Did' – The OP_RETURN War: Who Controls Bitcoin?
