Nik Oraevsky: Bitcoin Predictions, CBDCs & Global Citizenship
“Right now we’ve been living in a society of debt on debt on debt on debt. This is something that cannot be sustained. The current financial system as it is currently constructed, cannot survive in the long term on this type of methodology. So there needs to be a shift and a move to a new type of system for any type of global commerce to continue to exist.”
Today on the podcast I had a fascinating discussion about monetary and personal sovereignty with Bitcoin Reserve CEO, Nik Oraevsky.
Nik wasn’t always a Bitcoin OG but his background in traditional finance has helped him to navigate the perilous regulatory environment surrounding the foundation and running of a Bitcoin company. As a result, he has excellent insights into the emerging world of cryptocurrency and freedom tech and indeed how to best protect yourself from the barriers to freedom that he sees coming.
In this conversation, we discuss Bitcoin regulation, the war on cash, the impending bifurcated economy, carbon scores and CBDCs, universal basic income, A.I., prepping, digital nomadism, global citizenship, and emerging governance models. I also get to ask an expert in the field: ”Is Bitcoin necessary for a Free City to thrive?”
Spoiler alert: Nik’s answer might not be what you expect.
Enjoy the conversation.
