Today’s conversation is not about theory or hype—it’s about wherewe actually are right now.

In this episode, Daniel is joined by Mark Matheson,founder of the eCERT® program, to provide a clear, grounded update on thecurrent state of eCERT®. Together, they discuss what has been built, what isactively in motion, and what still needs to happen.

This conversation explores the growing gap between disastersand readiness—operationally, financially, and at the community level—and howeCERT® is positioning itself to address that gap through deployable NGO-basedresponse teams and separate financial resilience tools.

Important clarification:
eCERT® Memberships and Digital Currency owners are two separate markets.
One is operational—teams on the ground.
The other is financial—individuals and investors preparing resources beforedisaster strikes.
They are distinct, but they support the same mission: readiness beforeresponse.
