BCB137_BTC SESSIONS: UTXOs, Human Rights & Self Custody
Blue Collar Bitcoin
Bitcoin and Personal Concern About Financial Armageddon
The chapter discusses the lack of concern shown by people towards financial Armageddon and government surveillance unless it directly affects them. The speaker reflects on the case of Snowden's revelations and how initially people were expected to care, but the interest faded away with time. They mention that people only take such issues seriously when they personally face the consequences, which often happens too late. However, the speaker also highlights that Bitcoin has brought together a globally distributed community of individuals who genuinely care about digital freedom and sovereignty, hoping that Bitcoin will bring about a more holistic perspective and concern about surveillance and control in the digital age.
