TODAY'S SHOW: In this episode Douglas Tuman hosts a Twitter Spaces session with the community concerning Monero, its current challenges, and the upcoming MoneroTopia24 conference in Mexico City!

Doug emphasizes the importance of digital cash, the MoneroTopia event, and the need for the Monero community to unite in response to an "adversarial environment," notably referencing Monero's delisting from Kraken in Europe.

Vlad Costea, an early Bitcoiner, discusses Monero's importance in preserving privacy and draws parallels with other privacy technologies, while Aaron Day talks about his experiences promoting Monero and privacy coins in workshops across the U.S. We also had Tatiana, singer-songwriter who is a peace and liberty activist join us in addition to many more guests!

Various privacy tech projects and philosophical concerns about privacy, regulation, and technology are explored throughout the spaces!
