Sidd
Sidd — the bitcoiner who toured 30+ US meetups in 2022, credited here only by the handle Sidd (@captainsiddh) — argues the Bitcoin standard in travel is a mindset, not a payment rail: leaving home culture behind, letting a trip shatter your worldview, and resisting phone-mediated familiarity. He describes the inaugural 'Ride of Passage' motorcycle week in Northern Thailand with six vetted bitcoiners, including the Tham Luang cave stop, and says it converted his hired photographer into a bitcoin acceptor. He then lists three 2024 rides (Magical Thailand, Midwest, Rally) and a planned travel-guide series.
