How is Bitcoin Life or Death for Activists? Alex Gladstein

Bitcoin for PEACE - DJ Valerie B LOVE

“5.7 billion people live under an authoritarian regime today around the world. If our goal is to end poverty, why would we be giving money to these insane lunatics?” Alex Gladstein
Check out this week's interview with Alex Gladstein - who is the main reason I am a hardcore Bitcoiner today. Thank you Alex!

• What is energy poverty?
• Can we have a peaceful world without a peaceful money?
• Even if/when we get on a Bitcoin Standard - can we have a peaceful world or will human traits of greed, fear, and battle for power corrupt the process?
• Story of escaping authoritarian regime with seedwords sewed into clothing
• What are self-care practices to stay sane, healthy, and strong as a human rights activist
• OFF - Oslo Freedom Forum and Freedom Money track
