In this episode of the Once Bitten podcast, Daniel Prince interviews Teruko, a key organizer for BTC Japan and a translator of the Bitcoin Standard, about her work in promoting Bitcoin adoption in Japan, her involvement with Folga Ventures, and ANAP, a Japanese clothing brand integrating Bitcoin into its business model.

Summary:

In this episode of the Once Bitten podcast, Daniel Prince interviews Teruko, a key organizer for BTC Japan and a translator of the Bitcoin Standard. Teruko recounts her entry into Bitcoin in 2017, initially driven by a market crash following her purchase, leading her to research and discover the transformative potential of Bitcoin through resources like Vijay Boyapati's "The Bullish Case for Bitcoin" and Saifedean Ammous's "The Bitcoin Standard."

Teruko shares the story of translating "The Bitcoin Standard" into Japanese, a task initiated by Wids, who saw the book's potential impact on Japan. Despite lacking prior translation experience, Teruko undertook the project, dedicating significant time daily for six months. She faced challenges in accurately conveying Austrian economics terminology and cross-referencing footnotes with Japanese translations, often requiring visits to Japan's largest library. She also spoke about working with Safeadean, and having to exclude the part about transgenderism from the book, as it would be poorly received in Japanese society.

Teruko discusses her work with Folga Ventures Japan, a venture capital firm investing exclusively in Bitcoin projects, with a focus on lightning technology, sidechains, and open-source projects. She highlights the challenge of finding Bitcoin companies in Japan and the importance of education to foster interest in Bitcoin and related businesses. Furthermore, Teruko elaborates on her involvement with ANAP, a Japanese clothing brand aiming to revive its business by integrating Bitcoin into its operations. ANAP is launching a new lifestyle brand inspired by Bitcoin's ethos, with subtle designs intended to pique customer curiosity about Bitcoin.

The discussion shifts to the upcoming BTC Japan conference in Tokyo, organized by Teruko, emphasizing its aim to educate and provide hands-on Bitcoin experiences. The conference will feature speakers like Grant from the Bitcoin Policy Institute and Roger from "Will Mao Buy Bitcoin," along with Luke Dash Jr. and possibly Shinobi. Teruko also highlights the development of Tokyo Bitcoin Base, a co-working and co-living space aimed at creating a Bitcoin circular economy in Tokyo, including the acquisition of hotel properties to accommodate Bitcoin enthusiasts.

Teruko emphasizes the importance of external influence in Japan's Bitcoin adoption, inviting individuals from Western countries to work at Tokyo Bitcoin Base and inspire local engagement with Bitcoin. She highlights efforts to legitimize Bitcoin within the neighborhood by hosting community-friendly events and educating residents about Bitcoin's potential. The episode concludes with a discussion on the need to approach Bitcoin in a sustainable way, especially in light of current distractions such as Bitcoin treasury companies and loan product offerings. Daniel encourages listeners to stack sats, take self-custody seriously, and draw inspiration from individuals like Teruko who are building and promoting Bitcoin adoption through education, conferences, and community engagement. He also promotes upcoming Bitcoin conferences like BitFest in Manchester and encourages listeners to check out resources and services for stacking sats and taking self-custody.

AI SUMMARY:

Summary:

Felix from WAVE.space discusses their innovative Visa debit card, WAVE card, which allows users to spend Bitcoin anywhere Visa is accepted. Launched in February as a virtual card, they're working towards a physical card, facing delays due to partnerships with various entities, including banks and Visa/MasterCard. These partnerships are essential as WAVE.space outsources regulatory licenses to focus on product development. A key hurdle is getting card designs approved by Visa and MasterCard, who are cautious about brand association. WAVE.space is transitioning from Visa to MasterCard for better control over card settings within their platform.

The card currently supports euros, with plans to expand to other currencies by partnering with entities in different regions, such as Estonia, to handle regulatory aspects. Users can create an account on the WAVE.space web app, complete KYC verification, and deposit Bitcoin to start using the card. Users can also connect self-custodial wallets via NostriWallet Connect to spend Bitcoin directly.

WAVE.space aims to enable users to live on a Bitcoin standard, offering an instant swap feature for buying and selling Bitcoin between wallets and bank accounts. This service is facilitated through a partnership with a virtual assets service provider, which is also applying for MiCA licensing. Felix highlights that the company is using other Bitcoin focused companies to leverage themselves off of. The company charges a 1% fee on conversions, whether buying, selling, or spending Bitcoin.

Customer feedback reveals unexpected use cases, including Bitcoin beginners using the card to understand Bitcoin better and buying Bitcoin with euros to spend via the card. Some users leverage the platform for reliable and private Bitcoin sales, as WAVE.space issues IBANs in the user's name, ensuring that transfers to their bank accounts appear as internal transfers, avoiding scrutiny from banks. Felix shares a story of someone in the UK struggling to buy a house after selling Bitcoin and recommends people use WAVE.space in Europe to avoid those issues. Felix says the company has a thousand users and is growing 70-80% each month. The company was bootstrapped by three co-founders and then had investment from angels, one of which was one of the first angel investors in Relay. Felix is looking for investors who understand the goals of the company. There are plans for loyalty and rewards programs, potentially integrating with platforms like Satsback, and expanding partnerships with airlines like EasyJet and accommodation providers like Airbnb. Felix shares that the company has a blog post talking about people shorting Bitcoin without realizing it.

The WAVE card lowers people's time preference because it causes them to ask the question, "Is this worth 30,000 sats?" Felix recommends people check out the Telegram group, website, and Twitter account for the latest information. He plans to be at Bitcoin Forum in Bavaria and Lugano's Plan B conference. Felix jokes that if he had one orange pill left, he would give it to Christine Lagarde.

Spoiler alert: Bitcoin is not boiling the oceans.

Today's guest on the show is Daniel Batten who joins me to discuss his work concerning Bitcoin mining.

How did Daniel find himself on a mission to start fighting the fudsters, such as Greenpeace and many other paid shills who are hell bent on trying to label Bitcoin as bad for the environment?

What was the response to his first-ever post about his research and how did that make him feel?

Why has he moved to Costa Rica and what does he hope to do with vast piles of rotting garbage?

A huge thank you to Daniel for all his work in the Bitcoin space and for fighting the endless stream of complete nonsense!

In this podcast episode, Daniel Batten discusses the environmental impacts of Bitcoin mining, his journey into Bitcoin, the IMF's influence on Bitcoin adoption, and his current projects in Latin America.

Key Topics:

Summary:

Daniel Batten debunks the common misconception that Bitcoin is bad for the environment by comparing it to the early days of solar technology, which also faced similar criticisms. He explains that Bitcoin mining, when powered by renewable energy sources, can be emission-reducing. He emphasizes that negative headlines about Bitcoin's environmental impact often overshadow positive stories, such as its role in mitigating methane emissions, stabilizing the grid, and accelerating the renewable energy transition. Daniel criticizes the media for disproportionately reporting negative aspects of Bitcoin mining while ignoring positive externalities. He uses the example of wasted wind energy in the UK, where wind farms are often built in remote locations without adequate infrastructure to transport the electricity to consumers. He explains that Bitcoin mining can utilize this wasted energy, turning a problem into an economic opportunity.

Daniel shares his journey into Bitcoin, which began with his work in impact investing. He invested in climate tech companies focused on reducing CO2 emissions, but he wanted to have a more immediate and significant impact, particularly on methane emissions. His research led him to landfills, a major source of methane emissions, and he realized that Bitcoin mining could provide an economic incentive to capture and utilize landfill gas for energy. Daniel explains the concept of modern sanitary landfills that are lined to prevent leakage into the soil. However, these landfills create a compacted environment that causes the waste to rot without air, producing methane. Most of the landfills in the world release methane into the air, which is harmful to the environment.

Daniel talks about the cost to build landfills, which can be hundreds of millions of dollars. He said waste management will always be one of the biggest single line items on your local government bill. He discusses the potential for Bitcoin mining to utilize wasted energy from hydro dams, as demonstrated by Bhutan. Bhutan used wasted energy from the hydro dams to mine Bitcoin, which helped them avoid an IMF bailout. Now Bitcoin mining is 40% of their entire GDP. There are now 10 nation states that are mining bitcoin. According to Daniel, the predominant method has been to mine bitcoin as a nation state and to acquire Bitcoin that way.

Daniel discusses the IMF's concerns about Bitcoin adoption in countries like El Salvador, Argentina, Pakistan, and the Central African Republic. He suggests that the IMF's concerns are not genuine but are driven by the fear of losing customers and geopolitical influence. He discusses John Perkins's work on economic hitmen and how the IMF and World Bank can trap countries in debt cycles, extracting resources and influencing their economies.

Daniel shares that he is currently located in Costa Rica, where he is working on projects to capture landfill gas and use it for Bitcoin mining. He's working on establishing the infrastructure needed to capture and utilize landfill gas for Bitcoin mining. He highlights the challenges of finding suitable sites for Bitcoin mining, regardless of the energy source. He discusses CH4 Capital, a company he operates where people can get a non-exceptional return. CH4 capital is a vehicle where people can get a combination of money coming in through the loan repayments, but also through the carbon credits without the conditions that the IMF have attached.

Finally, Daniel shares who he would give his last orange pill to: the head of the United Nations, because the story of Bitcoin's social utility is so untold. He says that if the head of the UN knew that 300,000 refugees have used Bitcoin to flee their homeland and set up from scratch, then those sorts of stories would just find their way through into popular consciousness much more.

Today's guest on the show is Josh from the Consensus21 educational project.

Why was he inspired to join another Bitcoiner on a mission to redefine education?

What challenges have they faced in setting up a 'school' in Melbourne, Australia, and what do they hope to teach the kids?

Why do they want to inspire you to set up your own schools around the world, and how can they help you replicate their model?

Is the education system broken, or is it working perfectly as designed?

A huge thank you to Josh and Kirean for everything they are doing in order to help educate as many people about bitcoin as they can.

In this episode, Josh talks about Consensus 21, a school he's building in Australia with Kieran, focusing on Bitcoin principles and future-oriented skills, aiming to revolutionize education.

Key Topics:

Summary:

Josh discusses the concept of Consensus 21, a school he is developing with Kieran in Australia, rooted in Bitcoin principles and designed to prepare children for the future. His inspiration came from his personal experience with his children's education and a desire to create a community-focused learning environment that aligns with the values of decentralization and financial literacy.

Josh shares his journey from traditional schooling to exploring alternatives like homeschooling and world schooling, noting the challenges and limitations of current educational systems. He emphasizes the importance of incorporating Bitcoin principles into education, believing that a Bitcoiner's mindset is essential to fixing the broken educational system.

The school aims to provide an environment where kids can learn about AI, entrepreneurship, finance, and technology in a way that is relevant and engaging. The school will be run on a Bitcoin standard, with tuition being put into a time lock and redistributed to the students when they graduate or have a viable business idea. The curriculum will focus on child-led learning, where kids are encouraged to pursue their interests and passions, fostering a love for learning.

Josh mentions that Consensus 21 plans to implement a "School Improvement Protocol" (SIP) where students can propose new courses or activities, promoting student agency and communication skills.

The school will have a main campus in Australia, with plans to expand and offer the Consensus 21 protocol to other schools and communities. The goal is to create an open-source platform that anyone can use to implement a similar educational model. Despite considering a completely private, self-funded model, they realized the potential to scale more quickly by leveraging government funding in Australia, where private schools are funded without heavy curriculum restrictions.

Josh expresses his excitement about the project and his eagerness to provide this unique educational experience for his own children. He emphasizes the importance of creating an environment where kids can thrive, learn valuable skills, and develop a strong understanding of Bitcoin and Austrian economics. He also acknowledges the challenges of getting a school up and running, but remains optimistic and determined to bring this vision to life. He concludes by highlighting the generosity and support of the Bitcoin community, which has already contributed equipment and expertise to the school. He also mentions that the the most important orange pill should go to Elon Musk.

Today's guest on the show is Peter Kirby, the author of the book Chemtrails Exposed- The New Manhattan Project.

Are you sceptical as to whether 'man' can control the weather? I was, until I started digging and what I found was not only shocking but deeply concerning.

The rabbit hole is deep and very dark.

Finding Peter's work was the key that unlocked the why and the how.

Follow the rabbit with me and Peter as we take a closer look at the incentives at play here and the people who have been linked to the New Manhattan Project.

Today's guest on the show is Author Neal Flesher, who joins me to talk about how every one of us has been enslaved against our knowledge.

Neal's book Modern Chains guides you through the history and definition of slavery. It is not hyperbole to label us all slaves; it is philosophically and literally true.

First, you have to understand how and why, before you can conclude for yourself how you have been coerced with debasement and usury and how to escape it.
