Show Notes

"Bitcoin’s security guarantee comes from the direct conversion of unforgeable energy into a fixed supply unit on an incorruptible monetary network. There is no alternative that exists that is more sound, efficient, effective and rooted in the physical laws of the very universe itself." - Aleks Svetski

What is the true nature of our government systems and what are the consequences of collectivism. These are not only fundamental questions to understanding the problems of society today, but their exploration also enlightens how these very fallacies & failed systems are propped up by the nature of fiat money itself.
