🌍 Introducing your Gen Z Layer (Z)ero!

This past Sunday, I invited 179 Gen Z Bitcoiners from 29 countries, 57 schools, and 26 companies across 6 continents for the Genesis episode of Sats Chats!

Community isn’t just important — it’s everything. Our peer-to-peer network is everything (h/t @NSmolenski).

Since the moment I noticed it, I’ve loved knowing “network” appears 21 times in the whitepaper. Releasing our first episode, today, on 10/31, celebrates this potentially deeper meaning and focus on the power of community and our network.

Bitcoin is rooted in math & physics, but it’s also rooted in us.

Generation Z, born in the same era as Bitcoin, is uniquely positioned to be part of our Layer (Z)ero, the social and human layer, helping shape a world where humanity’s potential truly flourishes. And the best part? We’re already taking steps toward that vision.

🎧 Tune in bi-weekly on SATurdays!

Together, we’re laying a new foundation, with our peer-to-peer network as its heartbeat.

Meet our Guests!
