Unmasking Freedom: Navigating Web3's Promise with Michael Benzaken


Listen Later

Mike Benzaken is the former Chair & CEO of an SME Multinational Life Sciences Company

and was instantly attracted to blockchain technology for its prospective applications in funding

overseas disaster relief & economic development. Shortly thereafter, he began the startup Citizen

Warrior which focused on a web 3 decentralized media apparatus to reinvigorate integrity in

journalism... having been a victim of institutional censorship himself, Mike sees TradFi,

Corporate Press, and certain regulation as an existential problem preventing wide-scale human

flourishing.

Today, in the wake of multiple lending/custodial platforms filing for Chapter 11, Mike and his

development team has suspended their venture to launch Citizen Warrior Foundation. CWF is

attracting volunteers from experts across Legal, TradFi, DeFi, & blockchain to educate the public

about the root cause of the ~$1.5T crypto market drawdown that resulted in these centralized

digital asset lending/custodial platforms restricting their users from withdrawing their deposits.

In short, Mike believes Alex (principal CN shareholder) & Friends fully intended to drive CN

into Chap 11… and CWF with its affiliates is working tirelessly to respond in proper measure n

favor of the victimized unsecured creditors.

Relative to the Corporate Press, in line with his CWF’s pursuit of integrity and accountability in

DeFi, the brother company Citizen Warrior, Inc. has launched WarriorCast – “Seeking Truth in a

World Seemingly Gone Mad,” where Mike interviews Industry Leaders in emergent tech and

rips the nerd out of freedom-safeguarding tech and shoves the resulting goodness down your

brain-holes.

There’s so much more and ways YOU can get involved. You can learn more about the Citizen

Warrior Enterprise by following CW’s LinkTree, here: https://linktr.ee/citizenwarrior.
