Timothy Allen speaks with Patrick Hiebert & Alex Voss.

Patrick gives updates on Veritas Villages’ expansion into Nicaragua, Panama, and Costa Rica. He highlights their network model, allowing members to share amenities across locations.

Alex discusses Autris’ acquisition of BitCorp to build a Bitcoin treasury company that pairs real business operations with Bitcoin holdings. They explain the concept of MNAV and stress that Autris focuses on tangible development, not just Bitcoin accumulation.

The discussion covers integrating Bitcoin into Veritas Villages through payments, mining, and governance. Patrick and Alex also explore decentralized governance, including special economic zones and quadratic voting for fairer HOA decisions.

The conversation concludes with plans for Autris to expand its communities and deepen Bitcoin integration.
