Why do people obey authority even when they know something is wrong?

In this podcast, I spoke with @nprofile1q... about obedience, fear, conditioning, and why silence and compliance are still choices. At a time when governments are increasingly expanding systems of surveillance and control, we sheould keep speaking up when it matters.

Thank you for your courage and for the work you do, Efrat. It was a real pleasure to have this conversation.

If I’m wrong about Bitcoin…’ there is a lot at stake.

I had the chance to catch up with Samuel Kullmann at Bitcoin Amsterdam.

He’s one of the first politicians in Europe to openly support Bitcoin, and he was debanked twice this year in Switzerland, without any explanation.

If anything, his debanking experience handed him a very strong personal argument that Bitcoin has a real use case.

What happens when Bitcoin enters the polarizing political environment?

At Bitcoin Amsterdam, I spoke with Thierry Baudet
of the Dutch party Forum voor Democratie about the challenges of bringing Bitcoin into Dutch politics. He said that Dutch citizens are far ahead in adoption, while the government still largely ignores the topic.

We also discussed “Bitcoin and Crypto” vs “Bitcoin vs Crypto”🙃

Baudet explained that, as a politician addressing issues like unlimited money printing, CBDCs and privacy, it can be necessary not to pick sides too explicitly. This can quickly be misunderstood, and carries the risk of alienating certain voters. So I’m still curious where he personally stands on the “Bitcoin vs crypto” questio 😅

Germany’s Federal Minister of the Interior’s proposed “reversal of the burden of proof” isn’t about fighting crime, it’s about expanding state control.

When the state no longer has to prove your guilt before seizing your assets, the rule of law becomes a formality.
