Bitcoin Freelancing: A Peer-to-Peer Proof-of-Work System
2026-01-30 , BTrust

A beginner workshop that does more than the average "Here's how you can make $10k a month working for yourself" scam. It's an interactive workshop, backed by my Proof-of-Work, that aims to help bridge the gap between where the audience is & where they can be. Not unrealistic, not a get-rich-quick shitcoin scam, just step-by-step activities that make a self-sovereign career a bit less scary.

It takes the audience from how the pillars of freelancing aligns with the pillars of Bitcoin - decentralised, immutable, scalable, Proof-of-Work, structured by incentive, peer-to-peer - to action steps on identifying a freelancing niche, how to get started, and more practical things like how to set up a Lightning wallet and send invoices, how to secure themselves as freelancers, etc.


I have been freelancing for over a year now and had the opportunity to collaborate with Bitcoin brands, such as The Little HODLer, Love is Bitcoin, Bitcoin Racing and BitLyrics.

My motivation to start freelancing is the same as a standard pleb's motivation for stacking: to take control of your resources.

It was a super scary step, and today the step I'm the most proud of. I am a big advocate for taking control of your life, however daunting it may be. It's with great passion and excitement that I want to help other plebs take control of their finances even further. I am thrilled to be the guide to others that I needed when I started my journey.

I am truly committed to giving my best, so that my fellow plebs can walk away from the conference with the same excitement and motivation to not only stack financial value, but skill value as well.

My goals isn't to get an audience, my goals is to inspire a movement of new Bitcoin freelancer businesses.

Here's a small Proof-of-Work:
