My pleasure to have an interview with nostr:npub1cndrh68pp75xz2znpzzarrj9tyqvenlnn4azf39x4sftq2z0v2esntxq6k to talk about Bitcoin and why it is matter for wealth preservation. I think this is a good timing to think about Bitcoin’s application when the geopolitical situation is escalating.

What does #Bitcoin offer Taiwan, caught between the ambitions of the US and China?
Recently had the privilege of interviewing Louis Liu, CEO of Mimesis Capital, a Taiwan-based family fund. The conversation went in an unexpected but thought-provoking and prescient direction, covering questions like:
- How is investing with a Bitcoin mindset different from a fiat mindset or crypto mindset?
- How does investing in Bitcoin companies stack up against just investing in Bitcoin?
- How is Bitcoin a middle path between two empires, the US and China?
- What does Bitcoin have in common with Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC)?
- How can Taiwanese protect their wealth as war looms? (Louis' family has a very personal connection to this question)
- Is it unpatriotic to protect your wealth from your country going to war?
All in all a great conversation that I highly recommend.
Cool, it's working. Now I can write out the long thing

Who's going to Indonesia Bitcoin Conference in Bali on Oct 26-27?
I interviewed organizer Dea Rezkitha ( nostr:npub1h88z7vfm7mnaz94gn2p2a5psaduzkphrf2pndtxa4xvsd6zpzg8qajhqta ) about what we can expect from the event, what #Bitcoin offers Indonesians amid soaring inflation, and even how nostr:npub1uq70uqgas9pyhds2zt57kr9se8rg3s68ztphjnq82ts8rzeknmeql7u0c2 will be not only a payment option at the conference, but the conference app itself! How far we've come.
There's even a discount code for tickets so don't miss it! nostr:npub1ftw5mdhk9c2zcsc7fzs0vxydxtdqs8jfj2va5egz05hemsm50saqgr8wjt

It’s rarely my place to offer parenting advice, but technically this is pre-parenting advice so here goes:
Don’t assign your beliefs to your unborn children.
I see this a lot in religious communities (“Christian babies”, “Muslim babies”, etc.) but now I’m seeing Bitcoiners do it too.
By all means, teach your children your beliefs, but don’t act like it’s a given they’ll embrace them forever. That only sets up a situation where they start to wonder (and you have to decide) if your love for them is conditional on them believing everything you do.
Raise your children to think critically and be prepared for them to not agree with you on everything, even your strongest convictions.

New episode of Beyond The Price out now!
Mark ( nostr:npub10wq4ve3zh0m4ldnnp6tyzvdq5vsamn89d7gd67emzlm4rlw4e88qfsvuqe ) and I spoke with ego death capital's Nico Lechuga about #Bitcoin VC vs crypto VC vs tradfi VC, why Bitcoin-only, why builders should build on Bitcoin, and how portfolio companies like nostr:npub1uq70uqgas9pyhds2zt57kr9se8rg3s68ztphjnq82ts8rzeknmeql7u0c2 and Synota are bringing Bitcoin to companies and communities, especially in the global South (as opposed to the majority of crypto which only serves the global North). Even a bit of energy talk to follow on from last episode on Bitcoin and the environment.
We actually recorded this a few months ago but it's as timely as ever!
Let me know what you think.
First full episode of Beyond The Price is out!
Daniel Batten ( nostr:npub13lkyycj8s3da6fhndtj0wd6s3s2ahmq86s7wrruvzd4tnc66cgfqn4lpsy ) is one of my favorite writers in the Bitcoin space - passionate for the environmental cause, devastatingly thorough in his research but gentle in his delivery.
Honored to speak with him about how Bitcoin mining, contrary to the "boiling the oceans" propaganda, actually promotes renewable energy buildout, stabilizes grids, and reduces methane emissions (84x worse than CO2!).
I have a lot to improve as a host and producer, but give it a listen and let me know what you think!
