What if Bitcoin had existed for people forced to flee with nothing? In this episode of Bitcoin for Everyone, we explore how a censorship-resistant, portable form of money could have changed everything for those who lost it all. You’ll hear the story of a Jewish woman in 1930s Germany whose family department store was confiscated, a Ugandan businessman with five Mercedes trucks stripped of everything by Idi Amin, and a young Christian accountant in Iraq robbed by ISIS fighters as he fled Mosul. These weren’t elites—they were regular, middle-class people whose life savings vanished in days.

Bitcoin offers a different outcome. With a 12-word recovery phrase, people today can cross borders with their wealth intact—beyond the reach of tyrants, inflation, or confiscation. This episode makes the case that Bitcoin isn’t just a hedge against economic instability—it’s a lifeline in a world where the unthinkable still happens.
