“What if you could have a say on every issue individually…now in the era of digital communication, you could do that.”
Exploring progressive paradigms, direct democracy, and more in our latest episode with Ahmed Gatnash (link in bio)
Test
"I don't think by default [Bitcoin] is going to fix much, especially if it continues the path we're on now, in which I feel like people's focus has turned entirely towards adoption by large financial institutions, rather than the fundamental promise that it offers. We need to be self-critical if we're to actually get anywhere." - Ahmed
What are your thoughts on adoption by large institutions, ETFs, etc? Is mainstream adoption via this mechanism losing sight of the freedom promoting qualities of #Bitcoin? Our latest 🔽

“The West was built with looted funds. The way the world is today with the inequalities it contains is not because the world is inherently this way. We’re seeing a slow correction of countries back toward a more neutral baseline” - Ahmed

"The more people that use and adopt #Bitcoin, the more useful as a tool it is for everyone...to say that #Bitcoin is a libertairian, Austrian economic project is insanity. Bitcoin is just money, an alternative to fiat money that works." - @erik
More and more ideologies will continue to come into and interact with Bitcoin as the tent expands. Bitcoin is for anyone and everyone and does not belong to one ideological camp.
"I think the biggest benefit immediately is privacy...and another one is in order to onboard people with zero fees."
#cashu is a game-changer for privacy and onboarding people to #Bitcoin. This and more in our latest TPB ep (link in bio)
“Bitcoin is most useful if more people use it.” - Erik
My guest today is @erik . Erik is a UX designer and has worked on many bitcoin projects including Hoseki and eNuts, a cashu wallet for android and iOS. Cashu is a free and open-source Chaumian ecash system built for Bitcoin that offers near-perfect privacy for users of custodial Bitcoin applications.
We discuss Bitcoin design, usability, cashu and the privacy benefits and importance, scaling bitcoin both at a protocol and cultural layer, political ideologies, freedom of speech, hope for reform, and more.
