🎙️ NEW EPISODE: Cash Controls, App-Store Censorship & the Battle for Privacy
My guest today is Lea Petrasova, CEO of nostr:nprofile1qyxhwumn8ghj7mn0wvhxcmmvqyvhwumn8ghj7mn0wd68ytn6v43x2er9v5hxxmr0w4jqqgx62mz5khn8f8t945pccxty0pu5472wf7j6fm7uyz6fnq0ya3txcvkl3f4a — the privacy-first, peer-to-peer Bitcoin app rebuilding true human-scale exchange. Lea is one of Europe’s strongest cypherpunk voices, challenging KYC surveillance and defending Bitcoin’s original purpose as money you can acquire and use without exposing your identity. We dive into tightening cash restrictions, app-store gatekeeping, and how private exchange is becoming the frontline in the fight for financial freedom.
We discussed:
→ Why identity-linked Bitcoin breaks true self-custody
→ How Vexl’s social-graph reputation model builds trust
→ Cash controls & app-store censorship as surveillance tools
→ Why “dirty fiat” is more dangerous than “dirty Bitcoin”
→ Vexl’s evolution into a local marketplace
→ The global drift toward CBDCs & digital IDs
