Rigel Walshe is an OG Bitcoiner, metalhead, and all-around awesome guy! We were joined by Rigel live at Baltic Honeybadger 2024 in Riga.

Rigel delves into his journey from playing in a metal band to becoming a notable figure in the Bitcoin community. He discusses his experiences with Bitcoin since 2014, his transition into the tech world, and the similarities he's observed between subcultures in metal music and Bitcoin.

The discussion covers the evolution of Bitcoin conferences, the integrity of the Bitcoin community, and the rise of Nostr as a decentralized communication protocol. Join us as we explore the intricacies of Bitcoin culture, the balance between signal and noise in the community, and the philosophical underpinnings of this revolutionary technology.
