In our 10th space we had the privilege of hosting Lord Fusitu’a, who is working to bring Bitcoin to the island nation of Tonga. He is also deeply involved in recovery efforts following the massive volcanic eruption that recently displaced people from their homes and wiped out all communications to the island.
This episode is a bit of a journey. Lord had to join us late due to a last minute conflict, so we invited up two people involved in Tonga’s recovery and Lightning liquidity building initiatives to share some of their experience and thoughts.
First, we heard from Derek Ross who has been a core member of #LiquidityForTonga; a telegram group of node operators formed to build rings of fire for increasing liquidity to Tonga’s nodes.
Second, we hear from Josh – who goes by @satoshiops on twitter – who has launched an ambitious mission aimed at helping restore communications to Tonga’s islands using airdropped radio equipment.
At around minute 43, Lord joined us for what turned out to be a moving and inspiring 90 minute conversation.
