Join us at PubKey NYC next Wednesday, February 25th for Building the Bitcoin Community in the Privacy-First Digital Age with @Obi πŸ”… and @dread

Featuring:
Obi Nwosu – Fedi
Dread – Flash

Overview
PubKey hosts an in-depth conversation with two builders operating at the frontlines of Bitcoin adoption and privacy tooling. As digital surveillance expands and centralized platforms consolidate power, Bitcoin’s community must evolve -- not just in size, but in resilience, self-sovereignty, and privacy standards.

This program will explore how we scale grassroots Bitcoin communities while preserving the principles that made the movement powerful in the first place.

Bitcoin adoption without privacy erodes long-term sovereignty. Community growth without principled infrastructure leads to fragility. This event confronts both realities directly -- and equips attendees with clarity and tools to build stronger, more private systems.

Core Themes:
Community Infrastructure: What it takes to build durable, local-first Bitcoin ecosystems.

Privacy as a Foundation: Why privacy is not optional -- and how tools like federated custody and next-gen wallets are raising the bar.

Funding the Builders: The role of mission-aligned capital in advancing open-source development.

Practical Adoption: How everyday users can meaningfully upgrade their privacy posture today.

This event is FREE and PUBLIC.

Join us on Thursday, February 19th for Keeping up with Bitcoin!

Bitcoin has entered a period of heightened volatility. With price drawdowns and shifting mining dynamics playing out across the network, market structure and operator behavior are adjusting in real time.

If the past few weeks at PubKey are any signal... the questions are changing. Less β€œnumber go up” more β€œwhat actually matters right now?”

The macro backdrop remains anything but stable. Liquidity conditions, policy uncertainty, and shifting market risk tolerance continue to shape financial markets -- influencing everything from institutional positioning to capital flows across digital assets.

Join Blockspace Media cofounder Will Foxley on Thursday, February 19 for a fireside chat breaking down the most relevant signals across markets, mining, and macro.

Not a conversation to be missed. Be sure to come out.

This event is FREE and PUBLIC.

Join us on Wednesday, February 18th for @HRF x PubKey AI That Respects your Privacy w/ @Marks at PubKey NYC

In this fireside chat, CEO of Maple AI Marks will share how artificial intelligence can be used more privately around the world with Maple AI. Maple AI is an end-to-end encrypted AI chat tool that uses open-source models to ensure greater security and privacy when using large language models (like ChatGPT - but privacy-protecting). Together with HRF’s Freedom Tech Grant Lead @Harrison Friedes, this conversation will explore how political dissidents and human rights defenders leverage tools like Maple in their work to resist authoritarian regimes.

Don’t miss this opportunity to learn how open source AI can support human rights, and participate in a live audience Q&A with the speakers!

As always, this is a FREE and PUBLIC event.
