In the hot and bustling city of Lagos, where cars honk filled the air and merged with hurried footsteps, lived Adebola, an unassuming tech enthusiast. Adebola spends a considerable chunk of his days with the hum of his laptop, exploring the digital world, fueled by the relentless curiosity for today's technology's mysteries. Today was no different from any other day, but something interesting happened. Adebola, sitting comfortably in his worn-out armchair, was on his smartphone and came across articles that talked about Bitcoin mining. While on his phone, he clicked on a pop-up that promised to unravel the secrets of  Bitcoin mining. Little did he know that this pop-up wasn't a mere tutorial but rather a portal that defied the boundaries of time and space. And Zapped! A sudden surge of energy came from his phone, pulling him into this captivating journey across time we are about to take. Each Bitcoin mining era Adebola will explore will talk briefs on the various innovations and milestones that have shaped the evolution of Bitcoin mining. The Genesis Block (2009-2011) Adebola landed on January 3, 2009, The day that changed everything. He sees a couple of people working on their CPUs, and what he assumes is the mining process taking place. Their CPU-powered computers hummed and vibrated in the background. However, Adebola couldn’t see their faces as the soft glow of the computer screens illuminated them. He can hear them talk about how they first mined Bitcoin's genesis block (block number 0) using regular computer processors and how this rewarded them with 50 bitcoins. This was done by Satoshi Nakamoto (almost certainly a pseudonym). Also, interestingly embedded in this genesis BTC block was the text: . This text, however, refers to the . The Times 03/Jan/2009 Chancellor on the brink of the second bailout for banks Bitcoin Whitepaper published on January 3, 2009 Question:  Why was Nakamoto able to mine with just a simple computer? They were literally the only ones in the Bitcoin network. So, a simple CPU device could handle the computational power needed. Intrigued by this, Adebola tried to ask one of the women in the room a question. But all of a sudden, before he  could, he was zapped into another room. He looked at his watch, and the time was 12:35 AM. He sees a young Laszlo Hanyecz, a Floridian programmer, on his laptop navigating a forum. He was trying to buy on May 18, 2010. 2 pizzas for 10,000 BTC The pizzas were worth around $25, and Bitcoin was worth less than 8 cents back then. For context, This was the first transaction with Bitcoin; the day will later be known as Bitcoin Pizza Day. This also led to the appreciation of Bitcoin to 8 cents later in July and 10 cents later in October. Right before Adebola could say Damn! He got zapped into…. The GPU Revolution (2011-2013) Adebola wakes up in Orlando, Florida. He looks up and sees "BitPay" boldly written on the banner. He sees some young men in shorts and shirts getting into a room. I guess there is a meeting happening. He follows them. Discussion about their new milestone of 10,000 merchants is taking place and what this means for BitPay. They also discuss how much funds are left from the $2 million raised in May via the Founders Fund. One of the men in the room, deeply engrossed in the discussion, is taking notes. He's jotting down something about Nakamoto's mysterious disappearance and how he is rumored to have mined about 1 million bitcoins before handing the project to developer Gavin Andresen. Another interesting thing they were talking about is the Bitcoin halving. When Bitcoin was first mined in 2009, a block would earn 50 BTC. Later, that was halved to 25 BTC (In 2012), 12.5 BTC (2016), and 6.25 BTC (2020). Why? That is because Bitcoin has a capped supply of 21 million coins. So halving happens every 4 years or after every 210,000 blocks mined. The next one should take place in 2024. The whole idea behind the Bitcoin halving is to control the supply of new Bitcoin and manage any inflation. He tried to pick up the note and well got zapped again. Adebola finds himself in someone's basement. He isn’t quite sure who, however he can see a young lady walking down the stairs. She switched on the light, and he was amazed at the sight. It is a technological renaissance. Computers with GPUs and parallel processing capabilities are lined up. This must be the GPUs era; GPUs were the preferred mining hardware at some point. He had just read about this before he started his time journey. In this era, mining pools flourished, allowing miners to share success and create communities like Mining City. He hears another voice coming down the stairs, seemingly asking about exploring the new field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) tech and how they are much faster than GPUs, but he trips. As soon as the coffee was about to spill on Adebola, his reflexes kicked in. He used his hand to shield his face to prevent the scalding liquid from pouring on him, but luckily, he got zapped. why GPUs? GPUs were better optimized and great for parallel computing simple mathematical operations (like mining). This is much better than CPUs. Also, remember that new coins like XRP are popping up in this era, and new miners are now competing among themselves on the Bitcoin network. Question: The ASIC Age (2013-Present) As Adebola carefully withdrew his hands, he was gripped by the realization that he was in a different place. From the writing on the wall, he seems to be in China. The Television in the room is luckily on CNN. The headline reads, " "  From the news, this new technology outperforms GPUs and CPUs, revolutionizes the mining landscape, and increases the Bitcoin network's hash rate. They were built just for mining, and their chip technology has dramatically decreased in size—from 130 nm in 2013 to 7 nm in 2020. China-based computer hardware manufacturer Canaan Creative released the first set of application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs) for bitcoin mining. He sees some documents on the table and tries to pick them up and get zapped again. This time, Adebola sees himself in an office in 2021. The name on the desk reads “Mark Zalan,” and some documents are named “GoMining.” In an attempt to pick up these documents, Adebola gets zapped, and this time, he is… Back to Reality (Present) He is back in his room. Awakened by the loud noise of the passing cars and heavy traffic outside the window. Damn! The light also went off, plunging his room into an inky blackness. It had finally dawned on him that he was back from his trip. Still curious, he picks up his laptop and searches for . He learns about how they are making Bitcoin mining more accessible to all through . Thus, he can join the mining industry without buying and maintaining any hardware; he can mine using GoMining’s Bitcoin-mining equipment at their data center.

You buy some NFTs (a unique token that gives one the right to own a digital asset- pictures, videos, game characters, or music- with the digital space) using . the GoMining token (GMT) Having satisfied his curiosity with a thorough web search, Adebola navigates to the Play Store and taps the download button to download the GoMining application. While he waits, he remembers the . He scrolled through, thought about his trip, and laughed as he read the comments. People were arguing about how the 10,000 BTC was small for the 2 pizzas Laszlo wanted. If only they knew how much 10,000 BTC would be worth right now, Adebola thought. Right before he closed the page, he spotted and read the last comment: " " Pizza forum discussion from Laszlo's era It is so remarkable how far this economy has progressed in such a short time; this breaks every record that I can think of.

The Time-Traveler's Journey to Bitcoin Mining: A Tale Across Mining Eras

THE TWO TRAVELERS

245 Tools & Resources for Travelers and Digital Nomads

Freedom has long been humanity's most persistent pursuit, a flame that has illuminated civilizations, revolutions, and personal transformations. My own journey reflects this quest, marked by achievements, setbacks, and profound realizations about the true essence of freedom. Throughout my professional life, I’ve embraced a lifestyle that many would envy, enjoying the ability to work from anywhere at any time. This seemed like the ultimate expression of liberty. However, I’ve come to understand that external mobility does not equate to internal freedom. True sovereignty is far more nuanced and complex than mere geographical independence. One of the most painful lessons I’ve encountered is the danger of over-attachment. We often become enslaved not by external forces, but by our own desires, obsessions, and expectations. When something we deeply care about is suddenly taken away, we find ourselves vulnerable, our sense of self shattered. This, I realized, is not freedom; it is a bondage of the most insidious kind. True sovereignty lies in cultivating a sense of self that remains unbroken, regardless of external circumstances. It involves recognizing that our worth is not defined by what we own, but by our capacity to adapt, to rise, and to transform in the face of adversity. In my understanding, true freedom rests on three fundamental aspects of life. First is the sovereignty of time, which allows me to choose how I invest my most precious resource. Second is the sovereignty of location, granting me the freedom to shape my environment rather than being constrained by it. Lastly, there is the sovereignty of financial aspiration, empowering me to design my economic destiny without being limited by traditional constraints. To deepen my understanding of freedom, I have delved into historical narratives of civilizations and individuals who have pursued sovereignty. From the philosophical resistance of the Stoics to the revolutionary spirits of indigenous cultures, and from the intellectual rebellions of enlightenment thinkers to the economic pioneers of our modern era, each story offers valuable insights into the nature of true liberation. These historical journeys reveal that freedom is not a destination but a continuous process of learning, unlearning, and redefining our boundaries. Ironically, the path to sovereignty requires a profound understanding of what we can and cannot control. It demands a delicate balance between ambition and acceptance, between striving and surrendering. We must learn to hold our dreams lightly, pursuing them with passion but not desperation. Currently, my life’s trajectory is focused not on conquering external worlds but on exploring the intricate landscapes of human potential. It involves discovering how individuals can craft lives filled with meaning, impact, and genuine freedom. This journey is not solitary; it is a collective exploration. It is about connecting with fellow travelers who understand that true sovereignty is not about standing alone but about creating meaningful connections that amplify both individual and collective potential. As I navigate this path, I am guided by a simple yet profound understanding: freedom is not a state to be achieved but a continuous dance of adaptation, learning, and growth. And so, the journey continues... Freedom has long been humanity's most persistent pursuit, a flame that has illuminated civilizations, revolutions, and personal transformations.

As a Product Manager, you have great ideas! Ideas that could change the way people do things, ideas that could solve the world’s most pressing problems. And all you need to do now, is go ahead and build it! Let’s build an MVP (minimum viable product), sell the hell out of it (because the idea is super-disruptive in your mind) and then iterate. Soon to realize 6–8 months down the line that your product no longer has that level of adoption that you had expected, or that you now have to pivot to cater to the needs of your ‘revised’ audience because the initial market definition was too narrow. Product Managers are nothing but entrepreneurs, trying to launch their startup, pitching a business plan to internal stakeholders (your investors), gathering resources (creating a startup team), launching and selling to customers (marketing and launching your product). Thus, as we all know the fact that more than 80% of startups fail, the path to building a successful product should mimic the approach to launching a successful company. The Lean-product approach The Lean Startup approach discoursed by Eric Ries, has popularized the ‘fail fast, iterate often’ notion. This involves evaluating the problem the customer has with a prototype and then iterating with measured data from the feedback loop, using minimum resources. A core component of lean-startup methodology is the build-measure-learn feedback loop. I take this methodology and apply it to defining, validating and iterating to achieve the right product-market fit and create a rock-solid product strategy. Problem definition Innovative ideas lead to great solutions, however, without a deep understanding of the problem space, you are at a risk of getting ahead of yourself and building capabilities which do not receive customer traction. Defining your problem statement involves understanding of the problem space, the sense of urgency to solve the problem, the existing solutions in the market that have attempted to solve the problem all in the context of your target audience. “If I were given one hour to save the planet, I would spend 59 minutes defining the problem and one minute resolving it,” Albert Einstein said. One example of the many ways of framing a problem statement is by defining: What is the problem?
Who is facing this problem?
How often?
Why do you need to solve it? In your initial level surveys or focus group interviews, these are a few statements that could be derived: “I am a salesperson, constantly on the road and am always struggling with managing and submitting tiny paper receipts for reimbursement as I keep losing them.” Using our above framework we have our problem statement e.g. “Business travelers or salespersons (who) need a way to capture and manage their travel expenses (what) because they are always on the road (how often). We need a solution to make this process less-time consuming and less-cumbersome (why).” This, by the way, is the problem as identified by DePasquale, founder of Outtask that made an online tool, Cliqbook, that allowed workers to book and manage their online travel and which in 2006, was acquired by Concur. Target Audience In the problem definition we have identified who is facing the problem you are trying to solve. This is where you identify the core audience who will be using your product. Your user as well as buyer personas. It is important to be honest about sizing your market here. This is not your $2B TAM pitch to investors. Be realistic and as specific as possible. Core Value Proposition A value-proposition is not simply a list of your benefits. It explains what benefit you provide for who and how you do it uniquely well. It should be a single statement articulating what is the value promised to the customer? There are tons of frameworks to define and state your value prop in a concise way. The simplest, perhaps is the template from Steve Blank, “We help [X] to [Y] by [Z]” Some great examples are: Dollar Shave Club*: “A Great Shave for a Few Bucks a Month”*
Stripe*: “Scale faster by building your business on Stripe’s payment processing platform.”*
Uber*: “Everyone’s private Driver”* Once you have your value prop defined, it is extremely important to continuously evaluate and test it with potential customers, even before you start building your MVP. Why is your product offering unique? This is probably the most important question you need to ask while determining the customer’s ‘willingness to pay’ for your product. Why should the customer go for your product vs the competitors? This becomes even more important when you are trying to displace a largely incumbent or crowded space such as enterprise productivity tools or online food delivery. Also, remember, you do not need to differentiate on a fancy feature or capability. Sometimes the simplest of things such as a clean design and user experience is what customers may need the most. Figuring out what matters to your customers the most and then choosing to differentiate on that aspect should be the approach. There is a reason why Zoom has completely disrupted the video conferencing market with their focus on creating virtual experiences when it comes to digitizing the workspace. The current space consisted of a stack of products, some wider and some narrower and some part of a larger ecosystem (Skype and Cisco Webex). Zoom clearly understood the need to converge video, web and mobile. Zoom’s offering that integrated audio, web conferencing and mobile integration was a simple, straightforward solution to what customers needed. Also, their willingness to work with most platforms and devices coupled with their all-inclusive fremium model was different from how all the other players went to market. Product quality, technology, user experience, price, go-to-market model and customer-service are just a handful of factors that you can think of and choose to base your differentiation upon. Metrics Ries’s lean framework follows a build, measure, learn loop. However, defining what to measure and how to evaluate the success for your product needs to be done as early as possible. You should be able to answer the question “How is the product doing?” at any point in time. And defining the response in clear KPIs (Key Performance Indicators) helps you evaluate the progress in a very objective way. The AARM method defined by Lewis Lin is a good framework to pick your metrics in each of the areas of acquisition, activation, retention and monetization. However, you need to go beyond frameworks, pick the appropriate metrics and customize them for your product and growth stage. Metrics creation and measurement is a highly iterative process and hence you constantly need to set KPI goals, evaluate and track these goals, and create new ones as your product grows. Apart from coming up with metrics for areas of acquisition, engagement and monetization, what needs to be agreed upon from an early stage is the ‘North-Star Metric’ that is going to drive most product decisions. This topic needs a separate article so watch out for another blog from me, deep diving into defining and evaluating metrics. Example Uber is a classic example where there was instant product market fit. Uber quickly realized their problem statement was “Limited, inconvenient access to taxis and transportation options in urban areas”. To solve this problem, Uber used GPS-enabled mobile apps to match drivers with riders, providing a reliable, real-time way to find and book a ride. Uber built their technical architecture  focused on real-time data processing and location-based services, which supported their rapid request-response model. Geolocation Services: Built using Google Maps API and Mapbox for precise location tracking and route optimization.
Dispatch System: Microservices handling real-time dispatching of drivers based on location and demand, with APIs for matching, pricing, and tracking.
Data Layer: Uses Cassandra for high-availability, fault-tolerant storage and MySQL for relational data.
Queueing: RabbitMQ or Kafka for asynchronous communication between services, handling surge pricing, availability, and ride requests. Uber’s use of microservices and a modular data architecture helps ensure that their systems remain responsive and scalable in real-time. Conclusion In conclusion, a successful product identifies and tests the product-market fit hypothesis from the get go and throughout the process of building the MVP. The Lean Startup message sums it up well. “What differentiates the success stories from the failures is that the successful entrepreneurs had the foresight, the ability, and the tools to discover which parts of their plans were working brilliantly and which were misguided, and adapt their strategies accordingly”. As a Product Manager, you have great ideas! Ideas that could change the way people do things, ideas that could solve the world’s most pressing problems. And all you need to do now, is go ahead and build it! Let’s build an MVP (minimum viable product), sell the hell out of it (because the idea is super-disruptive in your mind) and then iterate.

Achieving Product-Market Fit: How the Startups Did It

This post represents some key SEO strategies for guesthouses and hotels websites, based on what was discussed during the discussion of an SEO blog post. Creating a Website Both sources note that having online visibility is important, especially when it comes to companies operating in the travel market. According to the blog post, WordPress is a very good choice in which to operate within the USA market because it's friendly, easy to customize, and has a very strong support network. Understanding the Travel Market Sources underscore the need to understand the details of the English travel market. Tourists are often seeking something specific - for instance, proximity to some important cultural site or some spectacular natural landmark - so targeting keywords reflecting these needs is important, such as "guest house near Rila Monastery" or "guest house with traditional English breakfast." Listings in the travel directories and guesthouse websites will continue to be influential, especially in tourist capture. Reviews and Social Proof Reviews are cardinal on Google My Business and TripAdvisor for travelers. On the other hand, sources indicate one up-and-coming review platform and remind one that local context is important in SEO strategy. Since word of mouth is a big part of the culture, adding in social proof, such as testimonials and positive mentions on social media, is key. Outsmarting the Booking Giants While valuing the dominance of sites such as Booking.com and Airbnb, all sources strongly advocate not relying exclusively on these reservation platforms. They recommend balancing marketing efforts and making direct contact with guests through a website using SEO. This involves creating unique content related to local experiences, food, and traditions that appeal to a special type of visitor. Keyword Research and Content Creation This blog post, therefore, highlights that researching keywords is one of the best means of persuading owners not to use generic terms but to focus on keywords depicting their experiences and amenities. Instead of "guest house with a pool," think "guest house with natural spring-fed pool" for those special touches. The focus should be on highly qualitative and captivating content worth the visitor's time, such as blog posts covering local attractions, photo galleries, and even videos. Adding traditional folk music or telling stories about them will make them even more immersive. Link Building and Collaboration Sources stress the importance of relationship-building with other businesses and websites in the travel industry. It is possible to reach out to local bloggers, tourism organizations, and even other guesthouses to discuss collaborations. For instance, two guesthouses from different regions could create a joint blog post showcasing a beautiful road trip, which would extend their exposure and build quality backlinks. The Human Touch and Future of SEO The sources stress the human psychological aspect of SEO, where English travelers find authenticity and personal recommendations particularly appealing. They foresee further growth in voice search and the requirement for optimization regarding conversational searches. The sources, however, still believe human judgment will be important, especially in deeper insights and catering to the peculiar needs of each guest, as AI-powered search engines get smarter. It's all about finding that balance in how to automate and remain authentic, using AI as a strategic tool that makes sure that the distinctive character of a guesthouse is maintained. Holistic Marketing Approach The sources go on to point out that the holistic marketing approach is an integration of online-offline activities. Examples are the creation of an e-welcome package for guests with useful information and a reflection of traditional English hospitality within online communication. Similarly, social media should be utilized for contemporary guest interaction, sharing behind-the-scenes content, and local influencers assisting further increasing the scope and effectiveness of this interaction. In other words, effective SEO strategies for guesthouses and hotel websites balance technical prowess with cultural sensitivity and highlight the heart and soul of a guesthouse experience through meaningful connections between guesthouse owners and travelers.

Life has a way of teaching its most profound lessons when we least expect them. During my recent travels, amidst the blur of work commitments and professional obligations, I received the kind of news that stops time – someone dear to me had passed away. In that moment of grief, a truth I had always known suddenly became crystal clear: our time here is metered, and none of us knows when our clock will stop ticking. This realization came during a period of intense personal challenge. I lost my phone with all visa card information, drivers license, with other important identification cards, more significantly, nearly lost my wife and family. For the first time in my life, I stood at the edge of losing everything that truly mattered. It was in this darkness that I discovered an unexpected truth – when you hit rock bottom, there's a strange comfort in knowing there's only one way left to go: up! Through this journey, I've learned that we often make the mistake of putting things on pedestals, whether it's success, relationships, or material possessions. The higher we place them, the more unreachable they become, and when we inevitably lose them, the fall is devastating. Instead, I've found wisdom in living a life that balances humility with honor, where knowing your worth doesn't mean forgetting your roots. In my professional life, this perspective has transformed how I approach my craft. I've discovered that true excellence isn't about grand declarations or promises – it's about mastering your art, through precision, passion, and consistent delivery. It's about fixing problems instead of just talking about them, letting your work silence the skeptics. While it's natural to feel pride and ego when you excel at what you do, these must be tempered with compassion and empathy. Success without humanity is hollow victory. The path forward hasn't been easy. There will always be more challenges, more obstacles, and more resistance when you pursue growth and change. But I've learned to focus on my destination rather than the distractions along the way. This journey has taught me the vital importance of investing in yourself – not just in skills and knowledge, but in understanding how to present your value to the world. Why limit yourself to local impact when you can reach for global influence? Perhaps most importantly, I've learned the value of building a network of like-minded individuals who share not just professional goals but core values. These aren't just colleagues or connections – they're fellow travelers on the path to excellence, people who prove their worth through actions rather than words. In their company, I've found both challenge and support, criticism and encouragement. This isn't just a story of recovery or comeback – it's about renaissance, about emerging from challenges with a clearer vision and stronger purpose. As I step into this new chapter as a sovereign renaissance professional, I carry these lessons close to my heart. Being your own greatest fan doesn't mean walking alone; it means believing in your potential while remaining open to growth and change. Time, that most precious and limited resource, has taught me that our legacy isn't built in grand moments but in daily choices and consistent actions. Every day presents a new opportunity to prove our worth, not through words, but through the precision and passion we bring to our craft. This is my new beginning. It's a journey marked not by titles or achievements, but by the wisdom gained from falling and rising, from losing and finding, from breaking and rebuilding. In the end, true sovereignty comes not from declaring our independence, but from recognizing our interdependence with those who share our commitment to excellence and humanity. The journey continues... Life has a way of teaching its most profound lessons when we least expect them.
