Hermann Vivier - Bitcoin Circular Economies in South Africa & Beyond | Ep. 69
efenigson
My guest today is Hermann Vivier, co-founder of The Surfer Kids nonprofit and Bitcoin Ekasi project. Hermann's journey began in 2010 with the dual goals of creating a tourism business and empowering marginalized youth through surfing. Over time, Bitcoin became a critical tool for his initiatives, particularly when geopolitical challenges forced his business to adopt Bitcoin as a medium of exchange. In this episode, Hermann shares how The Surfer Kids nonprofit uses surfing as a vehicle to teach life skills and foster resilience among South African youth, while Bitcoin Ekasi builds a circular economy, paying salaries in Bitcoin and empowering underserved communities to adopt financial sovereignty. From leveraging Bitcoin to navigate failing state systems to inspiring others through grassroots education, Hermann’s work highlights the transformative potential of Bitcoin as both a medium of exchange and a tool for societal change. Tune in to learn about the unique challenges of operating in underbanked regions, the importance of using Bitcoin as money, and the power of building circular economies.

Eric Stacks - Digital Scarcity Creates Abundance | Ep. 66
efenigson
My guest today is Eric Stacks, a former cannabis producer turned passionate Bitcoin advocate. From his early life shaped by familial challenges to his pivot into Bitcoin after witnessing the inefficiencies of the fiat system, Eric has developed a deep understanding of economic incentives, free markets, and the promise of Bitcoin. Eric shares how his journey began with mistrust of the pharmaceutical industry, leading him to cannabis production and eventually to Bitcoin as a solution to the systemic flaws he observed. His unique insights connect the dots between free-market deflation, economic Darwinism, and Bitcoin’s potential to incentivize ethical behavior while punishing dishonesty. He explains how Bitcoin redefines property rights, empowers individuals, and offers a path to a more sustainable global economy. We also discussed El Salvador’s Bitcoin adoption, governments under a Bitcoin standard, and what a new monetary system would look like. Eric’s vision of an after-Bitcoin world is filled with hope, optimism, and practical strategies for how to navigate the changes ahead. This episode was filmed in El Salvador in Nov. 2024.

Joana Cotar - Fighting for Freedom in German Parliament | Ep. 57
efenigson
My guest today is Joana Cotar, a German politician who has been a member of the Bundestag (the German parliament) since 2017. Originally part of the Alternative for Germany (AfD) party, Joana is now an independent representative promoting Bitcoin and empowering individuals to take control of their financial and personal freedom.
In this episode, Joana shares her unique journey—from growing up in communist Romania to entering German politics, resisting Covid measures and mandates and championing freedom through Bitcoin. We discuss her experiences navigating the Bundestag, where she founded the “Bitcoin in the Bundestag” initiative to educate fellow MPs about Bitcoin's potential to empower individuals and solve real-world challenges. While she unpacks the dangers of Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs), Joana explains how Bitcoin can counteract these risks and why its adoption represents a beacon of hope in the face of increasing state control.

Dennis Porter - Bitcoin Policy & State Adoption | Ep. 55
efenigson
My guest today is Dennis Porter, the co-founder and chairman of the Satoshi Action Fund, a non-profit organization dedicated to educating policymakers about the benefits of Bitcoin and its potential to support broader public policy goals.
In this episode, Dennis shares the progress the Satoshi Action Fund has made - from influencing the recent ban on CBDCs in Louisiana to advancing pro-Bitcoin legislation in over 20 U.S. states. We discuss the growing momentum for Bitcoin at the state level, including Pennsylvania’s passage of House Bill 2481, commonly referred to as the Bitcoin Rights Bill, which aims to protect the rights of residents regarding the self-custody of Bitcoin.
We also talk about how Dennis and his team at the Satoshi Action Fund influence lawmakers, using techniques like “microdosing” the orange pill, as well as borrowing ideas from Ronald Reagan on how to get laws passed. Dennis offers a unique perspective on the political and regulatory landscape shaping Bitcoin’s future.
Tune in for an insightful discussion on grassroots advocacy, state-level Bitcoin adoption, and its role in the future of the USA.

Knut & Luke - The Inverse of Clown World | Ep. 51
efenigson
My guests today are Knut Svanholm & Luke De Wolf.
Knut is the author of many classic Bitcoin books including the famous “Bitcoin: Everything Divided by 21 Million”.
Luke is the co-author with Knut of Bitcoin: The Inverse of Clown World (see link to purchase below), and together they co-hosts the “Bitcoin Infinity Show” and publish various books.
In this episode, we discuss Knut & Luke’s journeys into Bitcoin and the concept of 'Clown World.' We explore the implications of government actions, the allure of free lunches, and the importance of personal responsibility in navigating today's economic landscape. The conversation emphasizes Bitcoin as a solution for individuals seeking to opt out of the current system and build trustworthy communities. Knut and Luke discuss the transformative potential of Bitcoin, its role in fostering trust and facilitating trade without intermediaries. We discuss the notion of legal tender, Bitcoin ownership, the future of corporations in a Bitcoin economy, and the responsibilities individuals must embrace as they navigate this new financial landscape. We end with the transient nature of stablecoins and CBDCs, and Bitcoin's potential to redistribute wealth and empower individuals.

efenigson
My guest today is Carla, the Creator-in-Chief in a duo called thecryptoc0up1e, with her husband Walker.
With degrees in journalism and business, Carla is a content creator, educator, and a young mum. Had someone educated her sooner, she would have spent less money on degrees, and more on Bitcoin.

We touch on the importance of optimism, handling criticism, and the potential of decentralized platforms like Nostr.

Mike Benz - The (Deep) State of Global Censorship | Ep. 44
efenigson
My guest today is Mike Benz, a free speech & censorship expert, the Executive Director of Foundation for Freedom Online, a nonprofit watchdog dedicated to protecting digital liberties and restoring the free and open Internet. Benz was in charge of the cyber portfolio for the US State Department during the Trump administration, where he served as the Deputy Assistant Secretary for International Communications and Information Technology. That role included formulating and negotiating US policy on Internet diplomacy issues as well as interfacing with private industry and civil society in the Big Tech space. Prior to that, Benz served as a White House speechwriter for President Trump and advised on technology policy.
In this episode we discuss censorship & free speech, U.S. foreign policy including Israel’s role. We dive into the censorship industrial complex, the mechanics behind censorship tactics, and the implications for free speech in the digital age. We also touch on the intersection of technology and free speech, particularly in relation to Bitcoin & Nostr, and end on a message of hope for a future of freedom and digital liberties.

Ed Dowd - Great Reset, Great Awakening | "You're The Voice" Ep. 43
efenigson
My guest today is Ed Dowd, a human I am truly inspired by, who spoke out bravely since Covid started. Ed is a founding partner with Phinance Technologies and a financial analyst. He has worked on Wall Street most of his career for firms such as HSBC and others and most notably at BlackRock as a portfolio manager where he managed a $14 billion Growth equity portfolio for ten years. He’s the author of “Cause Unknown: The Epidemic of Sudden Deaths in 2021 & 2022”.
In this conversation, we discuss the intricate connections between Covid19, the global economy, and the role of central banks. Ed shares insights on the financial implications of Covid, the wealth transfer that occurred, impacts on the middle class, and the challenges facing the banking sector. We expand on Ed’s C19 injections damage report, which includes injuries (adverse reactions), disabilities and deaths and their economic impacts.
Ed bravely shares his personal awakening story - triggered by his physical and mental health conditions. We discuss life and thoughts as energy, the role of evil in today’s reality, and the importance of staying present and individual responsibility in these turbulent times. We touch on the tendency to rely on saviours, while neglecting personal empowerment, sovereignty and community building.

Prof. Steven Koonin - Climate Realism: A Sane Approach | Ep. 42 with Tom Nelson & Efrat Fenigson
efenigson
My guest today is Prof. Steven Koonin, co-hosted with Tom Nelson - host of The Tom Nelson Podcast. Prof. Koonin is an American theoretical physicist and former director of the Center for Urban Science and Progress at NYU, as well as a professor in the Department of Civil and Urban Engineering at NYU School of Engineering. In the past he was the Chief Scientist of BP’s oil and gas division, served as Under Secretary for Science in the Department of Energy, in the Obama administration, and was the vice-president of Caltech, one of the most prestigious scientific institutes in the world.
Steven is the author of the book “Unsettled: What Climate Science Tells Us, What It Doesn’t, and Why It Matters”, where he argues that while there are some basic facts about climate change that experts agree upon, the meaning of those facts is not so settled, and mainstream scientific studies do not support the notion that there is any kind of climate crisis at all.
This conversation discusses Climate Realism - the sane approach to the “Climate Change” alarmism, and the role of media in shaping public perception. We touched on topics such as the use of the term 'climate denier,' bias in the energy industry, the challenges faced by young scientists who question the climate narrative, the role of journalists in spreading misinformation, and the influence of organizations like the UN and Covering Climate Now. We talked about the viral documentary 'Climate the Movie' and censorship attempts. Lastly we touched on the funding dynamic in climate research, and geoengineering / chemtrails. Steven emphasizes the need for open scientific discussion and the importance of prudence in considering these interventions. We end with the challenges & optimism in maintaining integrity and truth-telling in a corrupted world.

Decentralized Communication: Nostr, Bitcoin & Attack on Telegram [Hearts of Oak Podcast] | Ep. 41
efenigson
This is a guest episode - Peter McIlvenna interviewed me on his “Hearts of Oak” podcast, and I am sharing it with you on “You’re The Voice”.
Peter wrote:
“Efrat Fenigson, a marketing expert and Bitcoin maximalist, shares insights from her encounter with Michael Saylor at a Bitcoin conference, discussing the risks of advocating for cryptocurrency amid economic instability. She addresses rising threats to free speech and government control over digital platforms, highlighting decentralized solutions like Nostr that preserve user data and social connections. Efrat advocates for financial sovereignty through Bitcoin and micropayments, linking these innovations to broader themes of freedom and personal rights, while also reflecting on Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s support for Bitcoin as a pivotal stance in today's socio-political climate.”

Isabella Santos - The Unique Voice of Education, Entertainment & Empowerment | Ep. 40
efenigson
My guest today is Isabella Santos, content creator & educator, co-founder of GetBased - a media company, and the founder of BTC Isla in Isla Mujeres, an initiative to create a Bitcoin circular economy with the vision to empower locals to utilize Bitcoin as a tool for freedom.
In this episode Isabella shares her upbringing, career journey and her work around bringing financial literacy and Bitcoin circular economy to Peru, Mexico and the world. She discusses the corrupt political situation in Peru and the lack of basic needs for many communities, and hence the importance of teaching them about Bitcoin in simple terms and breaking down the barriers to entry. We also touch on the corrupt nature of the media landscape, control and censorship of social media platforms and the importance of mindset change, critical thinking and personal responsibility in navigating today's society. .

Freedom, Technology & Sovereignty [Efrat on Robin Seyr’s Podcast] | You're The Voice Ep. 39
efenigson
This is a guest episode - Robin Seyr interviewed me on his podcast, and I decided to share it on “You’re The Voice”.
Our conversation explores the relationship between fiat currency and wars, with a focus on the situation in Israel. It is suggested that fiat currency enables wars and that the modern society's incentive structure encourages negative behavior. The conversation also delves into the potential impact of a Bitcoin standard on wars, with the belief that it could change the incentive structure and promote fairness. The importance of humility and kindness in the Bitcoin industry is highlighted, as well as the potential for the industry to inspire positive change. Efrat Fenigson discusses the importance of spirituality and reconnecting with oneself, the need for women to promote themselves and take initiative, and the value of teaching children about inflation and the flaws of the fiat system.

Dr. Lia Naor - A New Mental Health System | You're The Voice Ep. 38
efenigson
My guest today is Dr. Lia Naor, a visionary for a new mental health system, who founded the “Healing Space” after Oct. 7th as a life-saving, nature-based trauma-healing ER for survivors. Lia has a PhD in Human Development and Counselling, she researches positive transformation and has a private practice as a nature based therapist. Lia trains therapists and educators through “ways of knowing” - her center for nature based therapy, as well as programs centered on the process of human development through initiation toward fulfilling potential and deepening our humanity.
In this episode, we discuss the importance of creating healing centers that focus on holistic well-being and support individuals. Lia’s vision is of a new mental health system that values connection, acceptance, and personal growth out of the breakdown, through embracing pain, and choosing life.
2 parts to this episode:
- Part 1 - we discuss the process of healing traumas based on Lia’s approach and work;
- Part 2 (timecode 00:34) - we go back to Dec. 2023 where I filmed Lia’s work in the Healing Space - a special center in Israel for trauma work and healing - for the Oct. 7th massacre & Nova party survivors.
* Donations I received during Oct. 7th went towards the production of this episode and the episode with Dror Ashuah.

Dror Ashuah: Awakening 101 | You're The Voice Ep. 37
efenigson
My guest today is Dror Ashuah, an internationally recognized inspirational speaker, author and founder of retreat centers in the US, Mexico and Italy. His book series “Conversation with Angels” is a collection of messages on spiritual awakening received by Dror from the Angelic spiritual realm in preparation for this unprecedented time of global change. Dror has a Master’s degree from Harvard University in Human Development and Psychology. His worldwide travels combined with studies in mysticism, astrology, Reiki, crystals, and Shamanism have all contributed to his personal understanding of the messages about human consciousness. Dror relays a non-linear worldview about the nature of life on Earth and our greater purpose in the Universe: awakening to our divinity and understanding our spiritual role on this earthly journey.
This episode has 2 parts:
- Part 1 - we discuss the process of awakening in depth;
- Part 2 (timecode 1:00:38) - we go back to Dec. 2023 where I filmed Dror’s work in the Healing Center - a special center in Israel for trauma work and healing - for the Oct. 7th massacre & Nova party survivors.
In this episode, we discuss the evolution of consciousness, and spiritual awakening. Dror emphasizes that awakening is a process that involves moving through fear, letting go of old patterns, and playing one's true self. We touch on the current time period as a unique opportunity for humanity's awakening and the battle between dark and light, while exploring the battle for human attention and consciousness. We discuss how different forces and areas of life manipulate and harvest our energy, and the importance of taking responsibility for our reality. We also touch on the dangers of consuming fear-based content and the power of choice in disconnecting from systems that do not serve us. We conclude with a reminder to find the gift in fear and to embrace the process of spiritual death and rebirth. We then move to part 2 which details the work Dror has been doing with the caregivers of the Healing Center in the weeks following Oct. 7th, to support survivors dealing with shock and trauma.

Aleks Svetski: Reclaim Your Powers | You're The Voice Ep. 36
efenigson
My guest today is Aleks Svetski, an entrepreneur, co-author of the best selling book, the “UnCommunist Manifesto” and the upcoming "Bushido of Bitcoin” book, as well as the founder of Satlantis - a travel & community social network built on Nostr. In 2018, he founded the #1 Collectible-Publication called “the bitcoin times”, and the world’s first Bitcoin-only savings app: Amber. Svetski is also building open source Bitcoin & AI tools with the Spirit of Satoshi project.
This episode covers Svetski’s background, his journey into Bitcoin, his views on authoritarianism and totalitarianism, and the virtues that are important for a thriving society. Svetski breaks the status quo, and believes in authoritative hierarchies and strong leadership, while criticizing the flattening of society and equality. He argues that Bitcoin will bring back feudalism and that elitism is necessary for a functioning society. The conversation explores individual empowerment, the limitations of the masses and the importance of beauty. Svetski critiques the hype around AI, highlighting its limitations and the potential dangers of regulation. We conclude with the connection between beauty and the rejection of communism.

Matej Zak: Self-Custody & Self-Sovereignty | You're The Voice Ep. 35
efenigson
My guest today is Matej Zak, the CEO of Trezor, a Bitcoin & Crypto hardware wallet company. We discussed the importance of self-custody of Bitcoin and the new products and services that Trezor has launched: The Trezor Safe 5 and “Trezor Expert''. We talked about Trezor’s company culture and open positions. Matej explains the key differences between holding an ETF and self-custody, highlighting the benefits of using a hardware wallet. We touched on the challenges of regulation and the attack on privacy, the challenges of operating a hardware business, and Trezor’s business cycles that correlate with Bitcoin’s bull & bear cycles. We also discussed governments and politicians reactions to Bitcoin, and ended with Bitcoin startups created as an antidote to Communism: Matej believes the Czech Republic has a high number of Bitcoin startups due to the people’s spirit and appreciation of freedom and sovereignty in light of its past communist oppressive regime.

Erik Cason: The Dawn Of A New Free Humanity | You're The Voice Ep. 33
efenigson
My guest today is Erik Cason, a Crypto-anarchist, cypherpunk, and iconoclast, who believes in sovereignty through cryptography. He’s a Bitcoin educator and the author of “Cryptosovereignty: The Encrypted Political Philosophy of Bitcoin”.
In this episode we explore the themes of resistance, courage, and questioning, while highlighting the awakening of consciousness and the pursuit of truth. We delve into the concept of anarchism and its relationship to Bitcoin and cryptography, the importance of anonymity and sovereignty in the digital age and the potential for a new political paradigm. Erik touches on the limitations of academia and the need for open dialogue and exploration of forbidden thinkers and ideas. We explore the importance of critical thinking, the dangers of complacency, and the probable potential for a dystopian future. We observe the phenomena of waking up from societal conditioning and reclaiming sovereignty, and use examples such as Covid & Climate.
Erik believes that Bitcoin provides a pathway to freedom and empowerment, but warns against the financialization of Bitcoin. He encourages the development of circular economies and the utilization of Bitcoin for direct peer-to-peer transactions. Despite the challenges ahead, he’s hopeful for a present and future where individuals break free from systems of power and control.

My guest today is David Bailey, an evangelist for the decentralized future, CEO and co-founder of BTC Inc., which includes the Bitcoin conferences and Bitcoin Magazine.
In this episode we discuss Capitalism, Freedom & Bitcoin. David shares his journey into the world of Bitcoin and the founding of BTC Inc. He discusses the ups and downs of the Bitcoin market and the evolution of the Bitcoin conference. Bailey emphasizes the power of Bitcoin as the hope for a new world order, an equalizer and antidote to centralized power, with a potential to bring about a financial collapse and rebuild a more effective financial system and a better future. We also discuss the big picture agenda behind the control of the financial system and the dilution of the dollar. David believes war with China and BRICS nations is inevitable as the US tries to protect its hegemony. Lastly, we discuss the significance of bringing dissident voices like Snowden, Assange and others to the forefront to expose truths, and David shares his prediction for central bank digital currencies (CBDCs). Ultimately, he believes Bitcoin cannot be stopped and will lead to the triumph of freedom and capitalism.

Accelerating Fair Money & Sovereignty with Samson Mow (& Bitcoin to $1M!) - You're The Voice Ep. 29
efenigson
"What do you predict that's going to happen with the fiat price of #Bitcoin?
I think we're going to see a million this year."
My guest today is Samson Mow, CEO of JAN3, a Bitcoin technology company focused on accelerating hyperbitcoinization. Samson is best known for his work with El Salvador’s Bitcoin initiatives, and his efforts in nation-state Bitcoin adoption around the world. In this episode we discuss hyperbitcoinization and the role of nation-states in accelerating Bitcoin adoption, as well as the importance of grassroots initiatives and aligning incentives with governments to promote adoption. Samson provides examples from Germany, Portugal, Switzerland, Argentina, Indonesia, Suriname and El Salvador.
Samson believes hyperbitcoinization is inevitable and that the transition from the fiat system to a Bitcoin standard will happen rapidly within the next five to ten years. He highlights the flaws of the current monetary system and the potential for Bitcoin to restore balance and empower individuals. We touch on the weaponization of money by governments, the trend of freezing bank accounts, and the need for Bitcoin to separate money from the state. Samson emphasizes that Bitcoin can fix these issues by changing people's mindset and making them less fearful. Samson also talks about the differences between stablecoins and Bitcoin, the launch of Aqua wallet and his price prediction for Bitcoin - $1M in 2024!

You're The Voice - Ep. 28: Senator Malcolm Roberts - Control vs. Freedom
efenigson
🎙️ My guest today is Senator Malcolm Roberts, an Australian politician from Queensland and a member of the Australian Senate. With a background in engineering, mining, business and economics, Senator Roberts is a climate realist, challenging mainstream climate science and exposing lies in this field. Unlike most politicians these days, Senator Roberts is a Truth teller and does not shy away from any topic: public health, Covid, immigration, finance, economics, sexual education for children and more.
In this episode we talk about the anti-human globalist agenda and how it manifested in Australia over the past few years. We cover the Senator’s fight against climate fraud, his efforts to help Covid-19 jabs injured, to expose excess deaths and more, while holding politicians accountable, encouraging people to reclaim their power. The Senator criticizes the centralization of government and the media by globalists, introducing new levels of censorship on Australians. The conversation concludes with monetary and economic changes in Australia, including the move to a cashless society, CBDC, digital IDs, 15-minute cities and more.
The senator highlights the importance of simplicity and the power of individual responsibility in creating positive change and waking people up to the truth. He concludes with a message of hope, urging individuals to be proud of their humanity and to share information to help others become informed.
► I’m aware this episode is almost 2 hours long, enjoy listening or watching it in parts!
► Due to censorship, I won’t be adding the full episode to YouTube.

You're The Voice - Ep. 27: Natalie Brunell - Breaking Barriers: Women, Bitcoin, & Financial Literacy
efenigson
My guest today is Natalie Brunell, a journalist, podcaster, Bitcoin educator, and business and financial media commentator. Natalie is also one of the most prominent female figures in Bitcoin today, leading the industry with grace and professionalism, and as such she’s an inspiration to many. In this episode Natalie takes us back to her roots which led her career to Media and into the world of Bitcoin. She discusses her upbringing in a family that valued hard work and openly shared the challenges they faced in Poland, in the US after immigrating and during the financial crisis. Natalie explains how Bitcoin transformed her perspective on money and gave her hope for a future of prosperity and abundance. We talked about a topic we’re both passionate about: the importance of women speaking up, expressing themselves, and claiming authority in their fields. We then discussed the importance of financial literacy and the role of Bitcoin in education, and lastly we touched on podcasting, censorship and independent journalism. Natalie prefers focusing on solutions rather than problems, and highlights the importance of learning, being humble and valuable to others. This is an episode you don’t want to miss!
"Financial literacy needs to spread. I just want to help people with the education of Bitcoin and I want the general public to find it approachable."

CBDCs, Stablecoins & Zoom In on Israel [Guest Podcast] - Ep. 26
efenigson
Recently I had the pleasure of being interviewed by Jeffrey Peel for The New Era Podcast, about my latest article “The Digitalization of Money” and beyond. We discussed globalists, governments & central banks’ plan to digitize money, using CBDCs and stablecoins, and the role of Bitcoin in the changing financial landscape. I emphasized the importance of understanding the monetary system and how it is tied to various global events and agendas. The conversation zoomed in on Ripple’s role as a CBDC leader, on Israel’s progress with CBDCs, and more broadly Israel’s role as “The World’s Lab”. I ended with the need for individuals to take control of their own financial sovereignty.

You're The Voice - Ep. 23 - Dr. Ahmad Malik - Being Comfortable in the Uncomfortable
efenigson
My guest today is Dr. Ahmad Malik, an Orthopaedic Surgeon turned podcaster in light of censorship, silencing & sanctions he underwent in the past few years. This episode is a conversation between two friends about the meaning and essence of life, more than it is a ‘podcast episode’. And yet, in this emotional, yet fun episode, Ahmad shares his personal story and his awakening journey. We deeply explore the phenomena of cancel culture and silencing during Covid, especially amongst the medical profession. Ahmad bravely shares the consequences he faced for speaking out, including suspension and losing his job. We also touched on podcasting, building physical and mental resilience, bitcoin, mindset of change adaptation and uncertainty acceptance, finding strength in the face of fear and embracing failure. I think you’ll feel that theme of this episode is the power of love and connection, choosing humanity and unity over division.

You're The Voice - Ep. 19: Robert Breedlove - The Truth about Money
efenigson
My guest today is Robert Breedlove, the host of “What is Money show”, with 400+ episodes to date.
Robert is a freedom maximalist and philosopher in the Bitcoin space. To him, Bitcoin is fundamentally a humanitarian movement exposing the greatest con in human history: central banking. Robert covers the connection between honest money, entrepreneurship, and civilization, to renew hope for the future of humanity. Robert's mission is to restore freedom, truth, and virtue in our world by tenaciously asking the question: "What is Money?"
A conversation about money may not sound exciting, but if you’re like me, a freedom and truth advocate - money is the most important rabbit hole to explore, as it directly impacts our daily lives, and more importantly, has the potential of building a different future than the ‘powers that be’ plan for us. This is why this conversation is very significant for me.
In this episode we discuss money, censorship, the corruption of fiat currency, gold and bitcoin. Robert explains the impact of wokeism on society, the link between fiat currency and warfare and the importance of Bitcoin as incorruptible, perfect money.

You're The Voice - Ep. 20: Max Keiser & Stacy Herbert - Bitcoin, Liberty & Hope
efenigson
My guests today are Max Keiser & Stacy Herbert, Bitcoin OGs and advisors to president Nayib Bukele in El Salvador, leading various initiatives.
Stacy is also known as the “Fairy godmother”, she’s a broadcaster, writer, and producer, and co-hosting, with lots of grace, wit and sharpness, the “Orange Pill” podcast with Max and formerly co-hosting "The Keiser Report".
Max is a broadcaster, filmmaker, and financial analyst, Wikipedia has: “known for his outspoken views on economics and finance”, and I’ll translate that to “badass, funny and sharp human”. Max began his career on Wall Street before transitioning to media.
In this episode we discuss the Bitcoin movement and its impact on El Salvador and the world. Max & Stacey share what life in El Salvador is like these days with Bukele’s new policies, economic growth, and the organic growth of the Bitcoin community. We touched on Bitcoin, Gold, and CBDCs, and how Bitcoin is a true instrument of freedom and sovereignty. We also explored the risks of institutional involvement in Bitcoin, ETFs, and possible price manipulations.
My takeaways
► Bitcoin has the potential to empower individuals in totalitarian regimes and Western democracies alike.
► Bitcoin's value goes beyond its price and technology, offering a new way of thinking about money and human potential.
► The organic growth of the Bitcoin community and its resistance to manipulation are amongst its key strengths.
► El Salvador is leading the way in adopting Bitcoin as a national currency and building projects and initiatives around it.

efenigson
My guest today is Eva Vlaardingerbroek, a Dutch lawyer and political commentator on a mission to fight the eradication of our freedom and fundamental rights. Eva is an activist, and an important dissident voice of totalitarianism.
Eva and I discuss the challenges of being dissident voices and the personal cost of speaking out against the mainstream narrative. We also explore types of Bitcoiners and the importance of understanding the principles behind Bitcoin. We then delve into the farmers' movement in the Netherlands, and the dangers of CBDCs and the dystopian future that may unfold. Despite the challenges, we find hope in higher truths and connections with like-minded individuals.

You're The Voice - Episode 17: Mark Moss
efenigson
My guest today is Mark Moss, an investor, entrepreneur, content creator, an expert in economics, finance, and a teacher and mentor for navigating the world through the lens of money. Mark is one of my main sources of knowledge and wisdom in the past couple of years and thanks to him I entered the world of Gold and Bitcoin, while understanding the fiat currency system failures. Mark has a sensible, evidence based approach, and he’s also a compassionate, humble soul.
In this episode we discuss the cycles of history, specifically Europe's fourth turning. Mark highlights the impact of the broken money system, the concepts of communism and Marxism, the World Economic Forum’s (WEF) vision and the rise of technocracy. He emphasizes the importance of Bitcoin in obtaining financial freedom and Bitcoin’s role in fixing the broken monetary system. We then discuss control and permission in society, the rise of parallel markets, and the energy crisis in California as an example of excessive regulation. We end with the importance of speaking up and taking action to build the world we want.
This episode is the second of 5 special episodes filmed at @TheBitcoinConf in Amsterdam, recorded about 8 weeks ago, and aired in delay due to the War in Israel; Thanks for your support & understanding.

You're The Voice - Ep. 14: Lino Hermesh, brother of Omer Hermesh, murdered on Oct. 7th
efenigson
My guest today is Lino Hermesh. Lino is the brother of Omer Hermesh, who was murdered on Oct. 7th in the village of Kfar Aza, where the rest of his family miraculously survived. Lino is an inspiration, and so was Omer.
This is a very tough episode to release. It’s also one of the most important conversations I ever had. Lino and I created a space in which we courageously stare in Evil’s eyes, unravelling the blanket of pain, grief and sorrow, while wrapping ourselves in its sadness, to discover we can always choose who we are in the face of darkness. Who we are in the face of anger and sorrow. How can we hold very complex situations and keep an open heart.
I hope you’ll get value from this episode. If you did, please let us know in the comments, it reinforces my guests when I show them your supportive feedback.

Levi's $1M Offer to Self-Censor - "You're The Voice" Ep. 4: Jennifer Sey
efenigson
🎙️Episode 4: Jennifer Sey
My guest today is Jennifer Sey, an American author, filmmaker, business executive and a retired artistic gymnast, who was the 1986 USA National Champion. Jennifer began working at Levi’s in 1999, rising to Chief Marketing Officer and then Global Brand President.
She was fired from Levi's last year after speaking out against the lockdowns and specifically the harms caused to children in San Francisco; Public schools were closed for 19 months during Covid in San Francisco for 50,000+ children: the longest closure in the world, while (privileged) private schools opened up in 2020. Most of the affected children are underprivileged, and for them Jennifer fought while exposing the hypocrisy of the "Liberal Democrats" who pretend to advocate for equality & equity, and exposing the woke culture, both of Levis and the public. Jennifer refused an exit grant of 1 million dollars (!!!) in exchange for her silence, because her story and her mission are more important than money. Her recent book, “Levi’s Unbuttoned,” tells the inspirational story of her corporate career, search for authenticity, and ultimate refusal to bow to the woke mob.
We talked about:
* Career path at Levis, their response to Jennifer’s views
* Levi’s $1M offer to self-censor
* California’s Covid restrictions, public schools closures
* Democrats hypocrisy in the US
* Free speech, media manipulation
* Labeling & damaging one’s reputation
* “Viewpoint discrimination”
* Twitter’s new CEO
* “Woke washing”: Diversity & Inclusion, ESG
* Predictions for the US Corporate America workforce
* Bud Light & Target failed marketing campaigns

A new world is coming? [guest podcast]
efenigson
Last night I had the pleasure of chatting with my friend Alex Krainer, and the brilliant Tom Luongo, hosted by Rich on his podcast.
Our conversation delved into the geopolitical implications of recent events in the Middle East, including the presence of the head of the Russian central bank in the region. We discussed the potential establishment of a new financial architecture and the rejection of the US dollar for oil trade. The historical context of the Yom Kippur War was presented, along with Russia's strategy in the Middle East. We also touched on the impact of oil price manipulation on inflation and interest rates, as well as intentions behind the Israel-Gaza conflict. We concluded with the murky nature of American politics, and a bit of climate agenda. Hope you get value out of our discussion. If so, please leave a review and rate the podcast.

You're The Voice - Ep. 21: André Loja - A New Reality & Bitcoin Atlantis
efenigson
My guest today is André Loja, the visionary behind the upcoming Bitcoin Atlantis conference and the Free Madeira initiative. We discussed the amazing Bitcoin Atlantis festival coming up in Madeira in 2 weeks, Andre’s journey into Bitcoin, Bitcoin adoption in Madeira and the risk of CBDCs. André revealed some of the conference’s program, surprises, and the many satellite events. We also discussed the supportive nature of the Bitcoin community, and how to create a better, different reality these days, amidst degradation of principles and morals in society. We touched on the educational gap in understanding the bigger picture and the root cause of societal problems.

-- MY TAKEAWAYS --
► Bitcoin adoption in Madeira is driven by a grassroots movement and the support of the local government.
► CBDCs may not pose a significant competition to Bitcoin, as Bitcoin's decentralized nature and global reach cannot be easily replicated.
► The Bitcoin Atlantis conference offers a comprehensive program with multiple stages, workshops, and satellite events, providing a platform for education, networking, and celebration of Bitcoin.
► The Bitcoin community is known for its friendliness, helpfulness, and willingness to collaborate, creating a unique and supportive environment.
