So the question is: is there a liberal democracy that fills this need?

The current Argentinian government’s ploy to abolish income tax and prevent Milei from being elected president just accelerates the failure of the legacy system. If they can abolish it in an instant, they can reinstate in an instant. I hope the people of Argentina see through it. It’s all a game. If you can make “ultrasound money,” you can undo it just as easily.

Buckle up and hodl, anon! We may be witnessing the collapse of the fiat system as we know it. A hyperbitcoinized future awaits us.

The JAN3 team regularly talks with politicians and entrepreneurs from all over the world. Whether it's in [REDACTED] or [REDACTED], even when they're not too familiar with #Bitcoin, they believe remittances back home need some fixing.

This is especially true in Latin America.

The most FOMO I ever had for a conference was not going to Oslo this year. Had too much stuff clustered around this time to make it easily workable.

Most bitcoin conferences are great, but there's different energy in Oslo. Feels more like the essence of what this is all about.

I've also found, when talking to some (generally wealthy) American media personalities and so forth, is that the inflationary/authoritarian country use-case for bitcoin is generally off their radar until someone really gives them examples. They just think, "Visa works fine, why do I need the BitCoins?" and when you explain, "Well look at the underbanked percentage in this country" or "Look at how these democracy advocates had their bank accounts frozen" or "You're not a fan of Putin, eh? Well let me tell you about how Nalvany's organization used bitcoin to circumvent Putin's bank freezes for quite a while." or "Imagine you're in a small country with hyperinflation and decide to leave. You can't bring a lot of cash or gold with you. What asset do you bring to get more of your wealth out? And when getting that asset, wouldn't it have been better to hold some as a permanent part of your savings before you need it, rather than try to get some after things fall apart and capital controls are more firmly in place?"

Alex Gladstein's books, Check Your Financial Privilege and Hidden Repression, or his associated talks/presentations on those topics, are I think really powerful to showcase to normal people who don't think about this stuff too often why this technology is important.

Doing finishing touches for my book, which is now past all external editing. I'm doing the author's final edit/checkup, cover, getting it into the right format for publication, etc.

Some questions for the community:

-Do you prefer hardcover, paperback, or ebook?

-For hardcover or paperback, do you care about the physical dimensions of a book? eg do you prefer a 5.5"x8.5" thicc book or a 7"x10" thinner book?

-For those that like audio books, would you prefer to read the book physically or electronically rather than listen to it, if it had a lot of images?

I have a question for Canadian nostriches, especially those who live in Quebec. Is there a legal obligation to declare any of the following:

1. the purchase of bitcoins?

2. the purchase of goods with bitcoins?

3. the sale of bitcoins?

Thanks!

Great bitcoin advertising.
