"We can't pick and choose people that get gravity and people that don't get gravity. Everyone just gets gravity... Bitcoin is like gravity where it's just everyone gets free and open source money. Everyone gets programmable money, programmed and designed to maintain its purchasing power. And that's a rule."
On this Bitcoin Talk episode of THE Bitcoin Podcast, Walker talks with Adam O'Brien, the founder & CEO of Bitcoin Well. We talk about Adam’s experience getting debanked by every bank in Canada, why fiat absolutely sucks, financial censorship, short-term fiat thinking vs long term bitcoin thinking, the political implications of separating money from state, the Bitcoiner ethos, family, why you need Bitcoin, and a whole lot more.
