The Bitcoin Way Hits A Major Milestone

They say time flies when you’re having fun. But you’ll find it races by even faster if that fun is fuelled by a genuine sense of purpose.

And almost two years ago to this day, the founders of The Bitcoin Way were lucky enough to discover their true purpose when Endi and Ahmed first reached out and connected with Tony on Nostr.

This fleeting exchange between anon social media accounts marked the beginning of what would become an incredible adventure. A shared mission to pursue true financial freedom and self-sovereignty, while forging a path that others might follow.

A mission to make true freedom available to everyone.

As seasoned entrepreneurs, our intrepid founders were no strangers to building a business and pursuing a dream. But The Bitcoin Way represents something different, something more. It’s not just a business, it’s a calling.

Building this community with you is our way of drawling a line in the sand and declaring that we aren’t asking for our freedom, we’re taking it.

In the two short years that followed, the spark created by that first message on Nostr would grow into a roaring flame.

Through our work at The Bitcoin Way we have connected and worked with thousands of likeminded individuals from all over the world, be it Bitcoin OGs or people just at the beginning of their journey. We’ve helped countless people secure their wealth and personal information properly, and in just two years have built a veritable army of sovereign individuals who share our vision for the future.

It’s been an incredible journey so far, and none of it would have been possible without you, The Bitcoin Way community.

That’s why this week we wanted to celebrate together and share some of our favourite highlights from what continues to be the most rewarding experience of our lives…

Helping you secure your freedom.

The Bitcoin Way – A Growing Team

The Bitcoin Way started life with just the three founders Endi, Ahmed and Tony and the business was officially launched at the Bitcoin Prague conference in June 2023.

The initial reception was fantastic. What we discovered very quickly was that the Bitcoin community has a real need for focussed one-to-one training to ensure their Bitcoin journey is safe, enjoyable and secure.

And before long, 3 became 5 as our mission attracted more freedom minded individuals keen to dedicate themselves to the cause. By the time we attended Bitcoin Prague again in 2024, we had recruited Michael our Chief Growth Officer and Rick our Chief Marketing Officer to the mission.

And things didn’t stop there.

As we approach our third trip to Bitcoin Prague this summer, our head count has been climbing faster than the Bitcoin hash rate. In the past 12 months we’ve been fortunate enough to hire some extremely talented people and crucially, they are all 100% committed to the true ethos of Bitcoin.

Let’s introduce you to our latest cohort of freedom fighters working hard to help you become self-sovereign:

Brad Long– Bitcoin Expert & Sales Consultant

If you’re ‘long Bitcoin’ but need help making sure you secure it for the long term, then you should be speaking to Brad Long, our resident sales consultant.

Brad is an OG Bitcoiner who knows exactly what it feels like to go down the rabbit hole, set up shop there, and call it his permanent home. He helps our community explore their options across all our Bitcoin, Cybersecurity and Plan B services.

If you’re looking to understand how to take the next step toward full self-sovereignty, Brad is the man you should speak to.

Anna Dolan – Client Relationship Manager

Anna, our new Client Relationship Manager works tirelessly to make sure that when you work with The Bitcoin Way, we don’t just meet your expectations, we exceed them.

Anna makes sure your journey to self-sovereignty never feels overwhelming. When you need advice or have follow up questions, Anna is your first point of call to make sure you never feel like you’re on a solo mission.

Your Bitcoin can never be stolen, when you work with Anna Dolan.

Mo – Expert Bitcoin Educator

Securing a large stack of wealth in self-custody can make anyone feel a little uneasy at first. It’s hard to progress when you’re nervous about making mistakes.

Thankfully Mo, our resident technical expert, is just the man to help put your mind at rest. Mo is an exceptional communicator and skilled and patient teacher. With him by your side your skills and confidence will increase rapidly.‍

If you’re ever feeling like you’ve got ‘Mo’ Bitcoin, Mo’ problems’, then our man Mo is the guy you want to have in your corner.

Luke – Bitcoin Video Editor / Content Creator

Luke is a talented creative who can turn his hand to video editing, sound production and animation.

A man born to be a Bitcoiner, Luke’s creative career started on the London underground pirate radio scene. He never asked permission to transmit radio waves, and he doesn’t ask permission to send financial transactions either.

You’re unlikely to ever see Luke, he prefers the anon lifestyle. But you’ll see his work across all our social media channels, in particular our weekly podcast and Bitcoin Banter shows on YouTube.

In just two short years, The Bitcoin Way team has grown to over 15 people strong with talented Bitcoin educators, lawyers and content creators all working hard to make your experience with us world class. A special mention is also in order for our incredibly talented designer and web developer Kris, who this year helped us with a transformational rebrand and new website.

If you’re pursuing freedom, it’s important to look good doing it!

The Bitcoin Way - A Growing Presence

With all this talent and passion now embedded within our team we could really start making some noise to promote our message of financial freedom and true self-sovereignty.

To our delight, we discovered a large and growing community of people who feel exactly the same way we do. People that want to do more than just talk about and speculate on Bitcoin, people who want to master it. People that understand that Bitcoin will only set them free if they learn the skills to use it.

The results so far have been amazing:

Twitter Followers: + >350%

Our twitter account has been growing rapidly thanks to some amazing giveaways (worth looking out for!), preaching the important message of self-sovereignty, and the occasional cheeky meme that goes viral.

If you’re not following us there yet, we’d love to connect with you!

YouTube Subscribers: + >700%

Our YouTube channel has also gone from strength to strength thanks to Michael’s fantastic podcast that hosted some brilliant guests like Saifedean Ammous, Econoalchemist and Natalie Brunell.

And who could forget our weekly show Bitcoin Banter where Tony, Michael and Rick keep things light-hearted with satirical jabs at the latest news from Bitcoin twitter. Big shoutout to Luke on this one for creating an awesome intro and making the show look top notch every week.

Bitcoin Newsletter Subscribers: + >1000%

Our number of newsletter subscribers has exploded as well! Having never created a newsletter before it’s humbling to know that thousands of people read our articles and updates every week.

We know there are tonnes of Bitcoin newsletters to choose from, so we really appreciate you subscribing to ours. We will keep working hard to keep them as informative and entertaining as possible. No listicles, no price predictions and no AI slop.

If you’re new to the newsletter, you might enjoy checking out some of our personal favourites from the past 12 months:

Take Profit? Bitcoin is the Profit!

The Immaculate Timing of Satoshi Nakamoto

You’re Still Early to Bitcoin – But How Early?

Online Webinars: > 1000 Attendees Across 6 Webinars

We also ventured into new territory this year hosting by some great interactive Q and A webinars with some of the brightest minds in Bitcoin and they turned out to be extremely popular!

These webinars are a great opportunity to interact directly with your favourite Bitcoin experts and are completely exclusive to you, our newsletter subscribers.

And of course our talisman, leading the charge and saying what needs to be said, our very own Tony Yazbeck. Armed with a powerful story and steadfast determination, he appeared on virtually all the major Bitcoin podcasts to warn people of what’s on the horizon and how to protect themselves.

It’s not always easy to promote our more conservative ethos in the noisy world of speculation and wild price predictions. We’re a small team competing for attention with altcoin casinos and VC funded giants. But with your support, we’ve definitely been able to punch well above our weight.

We are extremely grateful for that support. All the likes, shares and comments really help us reach more people with what we believe is a truly important message.

Every moment has been a great experience, but by far the best thing about building this community with all of you is just how bullish it makes us about the future. It’s inspiring to connect with so many dedicated, hardworking, and freedom loving individuals from all over the world. A lot of the momentum we enjoy as a business comes from the energy we receive from you.

We love our growing community.

There is no second best.

More Open-Source Tools, More Freedom

Over the past two years, our constant quest to help our clients achieve self-sovereignty has also seen us add a whole plethora of new tools and services designed to protect your interests and maximise your freedoms:

Bitcoin Consulting Services

At The Bitcoin Way we’re best known for helping people learn the skills to take full control of their wealth by holding it securely in self-custody. No third parties, no KYC and no compromises. But we can also help you go so much further…

We offer training across a wide variety of Bitcoin skills:

• Essential skills training in UTXO management and inheritance planning.
• Disaster recovery training and wallet recovery services.
• Training on verifying open-source firmware and software.
• Advanced multi-vendor, multi signature security setups.
• Home Bitcoin mining setup and training.
• Advanced privacy tools like Tor, Dojo, Fulcrum.
• Training on non-KYC purchase options.

And to complement our training packages we also developed a brand-new Bitcoin Bootcamp service where we set regular check-ins to make sure you’re skills stay sharp and you never get rusty.

(Don’t worry, this is just a meme. There’s no shouting involved. It’s actually a lot of fun!)

Personal Cybersecurity Services

We knew that if we wanted our clients to be completely self-sovereign then protecting their wealth was just step one. Which is why we rolled out a suite of personal cybersecurity services designed to protect every aspect of your digital life.

• Expert training on data encryption and sovereign backup strategies.
• Open-source VPNs to keep your search history and internet activity private.
• Expert DNS setup to block unwanted tracking, adverts and harmful content.
• AI threat detection stopping 99% of cybersecurity threats from ever reaching you.

And when you’re ready to go even further? We now offer services to help you get to grips with Linux, an open source and much more secure operating system.

Achieving full self-sovereignty means taking control over not just your money, but your personal information as well. Our cybersecurity services make sure you secure your online life as well as you would your home.

Privacy Phone Setup & Training

The mobile device you carry with you everywhere is capable of tracking and analysing your life in excruciating detail. It is one of the most effective pieces of spyware ever created.

Your phone knows where you’ve been and your current location. It sees all the content you consume, every website you visit, and every picture you take. It knows your purchase history, who you interact with, and even the sound of your voice. Your mobile phone is a window into the most intimate details of your life and advertisers, governments and intelligence agencies take full advantage of it.

The only way you can protect yourself from the prying eyes of government and big tech is to take full ownership of your device and run an open-source operating system that puts you in control.

That’s why we now offer training to help clients walkthrough the process of setting up a privacy phone and configuring the settings to ensure you’re the one who decides what information you share and what you keep private.

Plan B Residency & Citizenship Programs

Bitcoiners everywhere are starting to realise that borderless money brings with it an entire new world of possibilities.

Bitcoin allows you to access and transact with your money from anywhere in the world whenever you please. No more international transfers, no more currency conversions and no awkward questions from your bank.

That presents some interesting opportunities.

With our brand-new Plan B residency and citizenship programs we want to help our community unlock as much freedom over their location as they have over their wealth. By securing residency or citizenship in a beautiful Bitcoin-friendly country you can expand your options, protect your interests, and have a back-up plan if you ever need to head to calmer waters.

When we say we want to set you free. We really mean it.  

‍

An Ongoing Commitment to World Class Service

Throughout this two-year journey it has always been paramount to us that our clients receive the very best training available in Bitcoin today.

That’s why over the past 12 months we’ve also been putting in a lot of hard work behind the scenes to make sure we carefully curate every step of your journey with us and make sure you always have everything you need to keep learning, improving and moving forward.

• Every client we work with gets direct access to our team via a private group chat and with a global team there is always someone on hand to speak to if you need our support.
• We constantly update our training materials, provide homework assignments and furnish you with useful notes and guides.
• We have carefully crafted a series of automations designed to guide you seamlessly through every step of your journey with us.
• Interactive quizzes after every call to test your understanding and cement your learning.

And of course with our wonderful new Client Relationship Manager Anna on board, you always someone you can reach out to if you have any questions.

Freedom is a journey not a destination and by carefully mapping out the journey and thinking carefully about every single interaction we have with you we want to chart a path that’s easy to follow, enjoyable and gives you the confidence to chase the life of your dreams.

Given we just crossed 100 positive reviews on Apollo (98 of which are rated 5 stars) it would appear we must be getting something right!

Countless Bitcoin Adventures

Looking back it’s amazing to see how far the business has come and it’s great to reflect on all the memories and friendships made along the way. When you look back to see how far we’ve come, it becomes a lot easier to understand why the time has flown by so fast.

Our mission has taken us on exciting adventures all over the world and we’ve enjoyed every minute.

We’ve enjoyed speaking on stage at major Bitcoin conferences:

Team trips and adventures all across the world:

And multiple adventures with our clients and their families to Plan B locations in South America to help them secure plan B residency:

And the adventures are far from over. 2025 will see us see us attending events in the US, all across Europe, the UAE and South America.

Our next trip sees us returning to where it all started at Bitcoin Prague 2025. The only difference is this time we’re gold sponsors, and we intend to put on quite the show. If you’re able to make it, we’d love to see you there in person!
