Fix the Money - a Bitcoin Podcast Niko Jilch ⚡️

Today I got the chance to sit down with Luc Froehlich, global head of digital assets at Fidelity International. The US Investment giant is one of the most important mainstream players who got into Bitcoin early - and so did Luc himself. We talk about institutional adoption of Bitcoin and the dominating narratives that drive the market.
Luc also compares Bitcoin to gold and asks: “Where is all the gold stored? You are putting yourself into a position where you have to put trust in someone.”
We debate the role of altcoins and “digital assets” - from tokenisation of assets like art and real estate to DeFi and other topics. We also cover the question of Bitcoin as a reserve asset and ponder if central banks will buy Bitcoin any time soon.

Hardware signing devices (hardware wallets) are the key to self-custody in the world of Bitcoin. How do they work, and who are they for? For today’s episode, I speak with Douglas Bakkum, co-founder & CEO at Shift Crypto, maker of the Bitbox02.
We discuss the Swiss advantage, why hardware wallets matter, how the US will play a role in advancing Bitcoin worldwide, and how self-custody will continue to evolve in the future to be a key part of Bitcoin life.
Best, Niko

This podcast is a message to those who still believe in Life, Liberty and the pursuit of happiness. A message from a European who calls on America to lead the Bitcoin revolution - if nothing else because it is in the interest of the United States and its people.
This is not about making money. It’s not about getting more fiat. It’s about fixing the money by getting out of fiat. About getting away from inflation and centralized control.
The Bitcoin revolution has only started.
Best, Niko

The plans are ambitious, the schedules are jam-packed, and the Czech flavor of freedom money is strong and intoxicating. Today we speak with Matyáš Kuchař, co-founder and organizer of BTC Prague, a yearly Bitcoin conference that will take place June 8-10 in Czechia.
We discuss some high-level aspects of the event, the genesis of Bitcoin life for Czechs and Slovaks, how to best travel with Bitcoin, and why it’s vital to have a Bitcoin community near you.
Both Niko and I will be there in person, and we’re stoked to be a part of it.

Niko and Yael talk about the surprising push by French President Emmanuel Macron to move Europe away from the US and the Dollar and towards China (and Russia). Can Europe really be a "third superpower"? What role does the Euro still play? Is it all just a way for Macron to distract from Problems at home?
Plus: The rise of "Value-4-Value. The rise of Ijoma Mangold. The rise of Bitcoin.
Best, Niko
