Timothy Allen talks with Pavol Lupták.

Pavol is someone who I’ve been trying to talk to for quite a while… so many people have mentioned his name to me but he had thus far proved to be a pretty elusive guy on account of the fact that he is (amongst other things) a perpetual traveller.  Fortunately for me I bumped into him at BTC Prague where his company Liberation Travel had a stand next to the Free Cities Bureau, and I managed to sit down with him for a couple of hours to delve a bit deeper into his fascinating life.

Pavol has been involved in the crypto anarchy scene in Prague for many years.  As the founder of both an ethical hacking IT security company and Prague’s Paralelni Polis, arguably one of the world’s most infamous Bitcoin and crypto anarchy hubs, he has a unique perspective on the ins and outs of creating parallel systems and opting out of mainstream structures.

In fact Liberation Travel’s sole purpose is to help freedom minded people to leave oppressive situations and relocate to a better jurisdiction or become what Pavol calls a ‘Global opportunist’.

Interestingly, something I didn’t know before this conversation was that Pavol has been visiting intentional communities and Free Cities projects for quite some time already, conducting personal research on different  governance models.    Look out for a couple of interesting projects mentioned in this conversation that I’d never heard of before and don’t forget that you can meet Pavol and all our other speakers in person in Prague in few weeks time at 'Liberty in Our Lifetime'.

Enjoy the conversation
