Mark Goodwin: BTC, USDT, & the Rise of the Global Algorithm Ghetto


Listen Later

Mark Goodwin discusses the intersection of cryptocurrency (e.g. bitcoin and the Tether stablecoin) and globalist technocracy. Goodwin argues that while Bitcoin may have origins linked to intelligence agencies and serves as a tool for the digital dollarization of the internet, it still offers a permissionless way to preserve wealth outside of traditional banking. The discussion explores the rise of the algorithm ghetto, a concept describing how digital IDs, biometric surveillance, and centralized platforms are creating a modern panopticon that restricts freedom of movement and thought. By examining the roles of figures like Peter Thiel and entities like BlackRock, the speakers highlight a convergence model where Western and Eastern powers adopt similar high-tech control systems. Ultimately, Goodwin emphasizes the importance of physical assets, self-custody of assets, and independent media as essential strategies for surviving an encroaching technocratic dystopia.
