Aloha: A Web3 Hawaii Home
/aloha25
A place to celebrate Hawai'i, the spirit of aloha, and for all people to learn and share. A Hawaii home for Web3. Aloha means hello, it means goodbye, but mostly it means love and we all breathe the same air. We are one.
We had a lot of people join us for the Blockchain in Paradise Pizza Day party last night. Skylor and Brittney were creating custom t-shirts and there was amazing conversations all around. Maybe 50 people in total. Aloha + Pizza + Blockchain = AAAAAAAMAZING!!!
So grateful I was able to hop on my standup paddle board today and see giant green sea turtles, reef fish, and smiling beautiful women chilling on the beach and in the water.
The cost of being social in the US and in particular in Hawaii has gone absolutely insane. A two burritos plus non-alcholic drinks $50. Two hamburgers, fries, and a lemonade and a shake at a diner $45. Four street tacos a beer and a coke $45. The food and service worst in memory but defacto tip 20%.
GM & Aloha - my brain just asked me if I can combine GM & Aloha in to one word. Galoham is all I can come up with but it looks like gallows + ham so that won't work at all. So the answer, Brain, is no - you cannot.
Amazing jungle hike with some friends yesterday. Oahu has so many hidden jewels.

GM & Aloha to all the Hawaii casters!
Great sunset last night in Waikiki
Saw Dark Star Orchestra last night - famous Grateful Dead cover band. Fun! They play covers of entire Grateful Dead shows. It was pretty amazing but I've never been in a more haole audience for anything in Honolulu - it was almost shocking when I realized it. I had no idea it was so narrow of a demographic.
No place like Hawaii.
Hawaii is more than a place...it's an idea and a way of living.
April 2nd, le monde spins wild,
Madness dances, pensées beguiled. Dans l'avant-garde's big face,
Famous flibbertigibbets find their place
Clockticks back, time's twisted vine,
Les théories d'Einstein, a cosmic shrine. Mona Lisa, Van Gogh's starry flirt,
Reality blurs, sanity hurt.

Living through the growth of Google was awe-inspiring: https://nypost.com/2024/03/31/tech/googles-ultimate-april-fools-prank-that-turned-out-to-be-real/
What does the word ALOHA mean to you?
If you doubt the power of aloha - please don't. https://www.hawaiipublicradio.org/local-news/2024-02-28/these-2-hawaii-cities-are-considered-among-the-happiest-places-in-the-u-s
What kind of rainbow is this? See the olelo Hawaii list of rainbow types in the aloha channel.
Guess it makes sense why the price of land and houses on Big Island of Hawaii has gone up 82% since the pandemic. https://www.npr.org/2024/02/28/1232564250/billionaire-benioff-buys-hawaii-land-salesforce
Rainbows. We all love them.
These are the words in ʻŌlelo Hawaiʻi that describe some of the rainbows we see:
Ānuenue, ao akua means Rainbow.
Ānuenue kau pō, pō mākole means Rainbow at night.
Ānuenue i ka pō mahina means Lunar rainbow.

I once dreamed of buying a shack on the Big Island of Hawaii, but now they are more expensive than a shack in California - so maybe not any more. Did you know there are more actual Hawaiians living in California than in Hawaii?
Aloha Friends. What is your Hawai'i dream?
Hawaii is always here. Let that create hope for the world.
Ha is breath. We all share the same breath. Break it down. We are one.
