Conflicted about staying in America to fight for freedoms with Bitcoiners or to cut ties to live abroad.

Be on the grounds of the home front or try to salvage by rebuilding with other Bitcoiners elsewhere.

The ramifications feel dire, especially these last few weeks.

I feel you, but where would you go?

No clue, but my intuition is saying a country in Africa or Latin/South America. #[3]​ was actually just talking about this on today’s (4/4/2023) podcast of “Bitcoin And…” episode 697.

With the potential growth their economy and network adoption of Bitcoin, seems like one country (or multiple) could be a safe haven. In my head, which country is balanced between influence from the West and from BRICS?

I have no idea and that’s the problem.

Yes, and with how quickly things can change in an instant, I feel like diversifying your living/work arrangements may be best.

Yeah, but the cartels there worry me 😅

This is the BIG question of the day for those who have the means to consider it seriously…

I think it’s good for bitcoin either way. Bitcoin’s human network must be dispersed as means of both fault tolerance and self-propagation.

If you take the expat route just be sure to go deep with language and culture and awareness of local politics - most don’t and it shows (and makes them easy marks…)

And who would take someone who bounces out when it gets tough?
