Today I'll be chatting with my friend @cjasonmaier , educator, bitcoiner, author of "A Progressive's Case for Bitcoin." What questions do you have for him? Photo below is a throwback to this summer at a Bitcoin meetup! And if you still have last minute Christmas shopping to do, get Jason’s book (now also available as an audiobook!) today 🎄🧡 https://www.bitcoinprogressive.com/ image

“I'm hoping Bitcoin can almost force an evolution of what we refer to now as progressive politics." My guest today is Logan. @Logan is a Lawyer, writer, and has published incredible articles via his Think Bitcoin substack and Bitcoin Magazine In this episode we explore the relationship between Bitcoin and progressive politics. We discuss whether Bitcoin aligns with progressive values, if it can address issues like wealth inequality and climate change, and how it may force an evolution in progressive politics. Key topics include the differences between "Capital P" Progressive politics/politicians and and "lowercase p" progressives, focusing on values over politicians and political power-structures. We discuss whether Bitcoin's market-based solutions conflict with typical progressive reliance on government funded initiatives, and whether Bitcoin can slow wealth inequality over generations even if it doesn't completely fix it. The conversation also covers the national debt crisis and why both major political parties avoid seriously addressing it. Link in bio image

Have we been kicked off “Team Blue” with this clip?? 🤔😅 Tomorrow, my conversation with @Logan drops. We discuss the conflicting reality many #progressives in #Bitcoin  feel and the ways #Bitcoin  is, and perhaps is not, “Progressive.” Tune in! #progressivebitcoiner

"Here in the middle of war, innocent people are cut off from the rest of the world, and we have the opportunity to help them through mutual aid and direct action." In an upcoming TPB episode, @Margot Paez / jyn urso and I discuss Yusef's @Geyser campaign, raising money through #Bitcoin for families in #Gaza. This is going directly to families in need for basic food and provisions, and showing one of #Bitcoin's most important use cases, if not the most important use-case--censorship resistant, global money, for those who need it most in times of crisis. Please consider donating to this campaign today:

As a community, #progressives and those that care about climate change and #ESG, are actually much more relevant to the narrative shift than any other group. That's why we're so keen on presenting conversations like this with @Daniel Batten to progressives! TPB65 out now (link in bio)

We need to be using a whole lot more energy that is stranded, carbon neutral, or better yet, carbon negative. #Bitcoin  is the single best technology to do this! Wait, what? Flipping the narrative, with one of the best to do it, @Daniel Batten in this week’s TPB episode👇 View quoted note →

“We need to be using less energy, which is coming from these forms, which is contributing to carbon emissions, but a whole lot more of forms which are flexible, which are stranded, which are carbon neutral or better even greenhouse negative." My guest today is Daniel Batten. @Daniel Batten is an entrepreneur, author, cleantech investor and co-founder of CH4 capital, a climate tech fund whose mission is to accelerate humanity's response to removing methane from our atmosphere, with methane being one of the worst greenhouse gas emitters for how it traps heat in our atmosphere. In this episode we discuss effective communication techniques for progressives seeking to educate peers about Bitcoin's climate benefits. Daniel advocates for bold, data-driven claims backed by scientific consensus to convey Bitcoin's potential to environmentalists and ESG investors. We discuss bitcoin as a source of hope for progressives that can reignite passion from the progressive and environmentalist movements, and how to have open, thoughtful discussions with folks that still have yet to understand bitcoin's potential and benefits. We discuss Bitcoin's evolving environmental narrative, quantifying and using data to avoid vague speech that sounds like greenwashing, increasing mainstream media coverage of bitcoin in a positive light, and the work still needed to be done to show why Bitcoin is the greatest ESG asset and tool of our time.

BREAKING 🚨: #Bitcoin mining could be used to power our transition to #GreenEnergy, says German Physicist Sabine Hossenfelder, citing Cornell researchers. So about that narrative shift I was talking about… 👀🌱⚡️🔌 Her YouTube channel has over 1 million subscribers.
