Just recorded a 2-hour podcast episode with Krista Edmunds. Thank you SO much for having me on and asking such deep, poignant questions. I've never really talked about my upbringing, my experiences, and how all that led me to #Bitcoin . 🧡 Can’t wait for you guys to listen!!

The thing that makes me the happiest is that aside from literally having the loveliest and sweetest Bitcoiners as readers of my newsletter (Notes From The Margin), I'm increasingly getting non-Bitcoiners subscribed. That's THE WIN. 🌟

I spoke with Felix Maradiaga for my podcast. He taught me about the history of Nicaragua, why dictators love to control the financial rails of their country, and why he think #Bitcoin  is a way towards financial freedom. Friends, this one is a MUST listen 🎧

"As Bitcoin has spread from cypherpunk message boards to Fortune 500 balance sheets, something else has gone up besides its price: freedom." Here are some examples of how #Bitcoin is helping freedom go up around the world.

Today in my newsletter, I talk about the path to freedom through private key ownership, why comparing #Bitcoin to VISA is like comparing "apples with eggs", and why progress against poverty is actually stagnating. Check it out right here 👇 and thank you so much for taking a moment to read!

Path to Freedom & Why Progress Against Poverty Is Stagnating.

Just finished recording a podcast episode with a political prisoner from Nicaragua, imprisoned for 611 days for announcing he'd run for the presidency. We talked about his time in solitary confinement, why dictators love to control a country's financial rails, and why he's increasingly seeing #Bitcoin  as a tool that liberates people. Stay tuned!

Normally I like to be the one that asks the questions… but today, the roles reverse. Here’s Bitcoin Dada asking me about my #Bitcoin journey, why I’m passionate about the intersection of #humanrights and #financialfreedom, funny/unusual stories in the space, advice for women in the space, and a whole lot more. Am I nervous this is out in the wild? Yes. Yes, I am. 😅😅

To me, the heroes of #bitcoin aren't the macro analysts, investors, politicians, or influencers. It's the people living in the margin adopting bitcoin, securing their newfound freedoms, & rebuilding their communities. That silent transformation is the work of heroes.

If anything, it crushed one of the most amazing, progressive places and indigenous-led Nations on the planet.” -- Kamanamaikalani Beamer, PhD University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa Find out why this is the case here:
