  • I’m joined by Nick Wilson who has spent over two decades working in energy and sustainability policy internationally, most recently at Mercury in New Zealand helping lead the company's energy transition strategy.

    We ask: How does the energy market work and what are the political and market forces at play? Who is deciding what the sustainability goals are and what are the real-world challenges? What is the connection between renewable energy and the need for flexible demand, and how can Bitcoin mining fit into all of this?

  • I’m joined again by James Viggiano.

    We ask: How do smaller currencies like the Kiwi Dollar (New Zealand Dollar) survive in a US Dollar dominant world? Is there a deeper geopolitical reason for the push for Central Bank Digital Currencies? Is the fight for physical cash a red herring when most transactions are already digital? And what is the role of Bitcoin in all of this?

  • Dr. Anthony Jefferies is co-author of the book "Decrypting Money: A Comprehensive Introduction to Bitcoin", which gives an excellent technical overview of Bitcoin and includes a foreword by world chess champion and chairman of the Human Rights Foundation, Garry Kasparov.

    We talk about Anthony's background in automotive R&D and how a system’s design approach translates over into Bitcoin Thinking.

    We also explore the interesting interplay between the different participants in the Bitcoin network: Cypherpunks, libertarians, and speculators, and how together push pull of these groups leads to Bitcoin becoming more antifragile.

  • I am joined by Alex Martynov, a leadership coach based in Prague originally from Ukraine. Alex founded the first website in Ukraine dedicated to Austrian economics and libertarianism and he also has an interest in Bitcoin and Freedom technology.

    We discuss the big questions of purpose, self-actualisation, and meaning making as well as explore the nature of liberty, and what is meant by the idea of the good life.

    We also talk about how psychology can be applied not only to individuals but to states and societies and the complex relationship people may have with the idea of freedom.

    But really for me this is a moment with a friend and incredible person and I do hope you enjoy this conversation.

  • I talk with Sovereign Origin about his concept FITS (Financially Independent, Time Sovereign) a new alternative to the traditional FIRE movement (Financially Independent, Retire Early).

    While both approaches aim to escape the “rat race,” FITS redefines the pursuit of financial independence through the lens of Bitcoin, focusing on sovereignty over one’s time with a unique perspective towards wealth, work, and life.

    We had a great talk about the FITS concept, exploring some of the technical aspects, as well as some of the challenges inherent in the traditional FIRE approach which is built on the premise of the ongoing growth of the stock market and ultimately is not truely independent because the state can always come and turn off or confiscate your retirement fund – Something they can’t do with Bitcoin.

  • Bayani Mills is the Secretary & Acting CEO at the Australian Bitcoin Industry Body, providing advocacy on behalf of their Bitcoin industry members and advancing the adoption and understanding of Bitcoin in Australia.

    We take a deep dive into Bayani’s work with the industry body: educating politicians, making submissions on bills before parliament, and trying to carve out a clear space for Bitcoin in the minds of the public and politicians.

    Not everybody agrees with the idea of engaging the political leviathan, but as Bayani outlines there can be real consequences to inaction and though Bitcoin functions fine regardless, regressive policy can make life hard for everyday Australians to get started with Bitcoin.

  • I talk with Hubertus Hofkirchner, an economist and entrepreneur from Austria.

    Hubertus hosts the monthly Austrian Economics Salon at Vienna's Hayek Institute and he shares some fascinating insight into the nature of base money and credit money, how we can understand these from a Bitcoin and Austrian economics perspective as well as what he sees as the next step for growing the Bitcoin circular economy.

    Hubertus is a key figure in developing the Bitcredit Protocol, an open-source initiative focussed on building a flexible credit money layer on top of Bitcoin for enabling businesses to finance working capital needs, using bills of exchange, e-cash, and the proof of the work of the real economy.

  • I talk with Win Ko Ko Aung, a refugee from Myanmar formerly known as Burma, Human Rights fellow at the Bitcoin policy institute, as well as associate at the Human Rights Foundation.

    Win shares the story of the ongoing civil war in Myanmar under the control of the military junta and the crackdowns and human rights abuses that are taking place.

    Win also talks about how Bitcoin helped him escape Myanmar, what it can mean for the people, as well as some of the real infrastructure and tech challenges people face trying to get their money out of the country.

  • Samson Mow is the former Chief Strategy Officer at Blockstream and current CEO at Jan3, focussed on Nation-state Bitcoin adoption as well as developing the Aqua Bitcoin wallet.

    Samson is well known for advising various governments and heads of state about Bitcoin adoption, including in El Salvador with their plan to issue Bitcoin Bonds.

    We discuss the game theory and approaches to nation-state Bitcoin Adoption, including the Bitcoin mining and energy story and how smaller countries like New Zealand can approach Bitcoin at both a grass-roots and state level.

  • Andrew M. Bailey is a Professor and co-author of Resistance Money: A Philosophical case for Bitcoin.

    We discuss the book’s approach to communicating the idea of Bitcoin from a global perspective, providing strong arguments for Bitcoin’s value as a net good for the world.

    We also talk about the history of political philosophy and how ideas spread as well as the new interdisciplinary Bitcoin Research Institute at the University of Wyoming where Andrew will be taking on a role as Professor of Philosophy.
