10,000 Satoshis - Justin Ep. 04 – Open Source, Grants, Fedimint, and Building Bitcoin Tools and Community in Minnesota
In this episode of 10,000 Satoshis, joeFi sits down with Justin, an open-source developer contributing to Fedimint. Together they break down what federated e-cash is, why it matters for Bitcoiners, and how it balances privacy with ease of use. Justin shares his journey from working at Microsoft to becoming a full-time Bitcoin developer supported by open-source grants, and how the Minneapolis BitDevs meetup has grown into a thriving technical community.

10,000 Satoshis - Edgar - Ep 03
In this episode of 10,000 Satoshis, JoeFi sits down with Edgar — engineer, Bitcoiner, and the #1 Real Bedford Football Club superfan. Edgar shares his journey from growing up in Connecticut to settling in Minnesota, and how his love for soccer and Bitcoin came together to spark the Real Bedford supporters’ meetup in Minneapolis.
We dive into the crossover of sports and Bitcoin, the challenges of starting a grassroots meetup, and why watching lower-league soccer at 9 a.m. with beer and Bitcoiners might be the best way to build real community. Edgar also reflects on his trips to Bedford, the future of the club under Peter McCormack’s leadership, and how these efforts inspire him to improve his own neighborhood here in Minnesota.
From streaming games on an iPad at a pub to waving duct-taped flags in the UK, this is a story about passion, persistence, and what it takes to grow a movement one meetup at a time.

10,000 Satoshis - Brandon Quittem - Ep 02
Episode 2 of 10,000 Satoshis — the podcast about Bitcoiners in Minnesota, by Bitcoiners in Minnesota.
In this episode, JoeFi sits down with Brandon Quittem — writer, speaker, traveler, mushroom guy, and the force behind the rebirth of the Minneapolis Bitcoin meetup. Recorded live(ish) from O’Shaughnessy Distilling, we go deep into Brandon’s journey from suburban entrepreneur to global nomad to early Swan Bitcoin team member.
Along the way, we talk about:
How the Minneapolis Bitcoin meetup got started and grew
Brandon’s travels (and his deep love for durian)
His viral essays like Mycelium of Money and Bitcoin is a Pioneer Species
Thoughts on the current Bitcoin landscape, public companies, and is the 4 year cycle dead.
And how to spot (and avoid) scammers in the space
This is the kind of conversation you don’t get to have during quick chats at a meetup — and that’s exactly why this podcast exists.
