Bitcoin & The Future in a Fragmenting World - (a panel discussion) from Pacific Bitcoin 2023
TL;DR: Live at Pacific Bitcoin Festival 2023, Shane Hazel moderates a panel discussing a world of declining trust in institutions, geopolitical re-alignments, rapid de-globalization and CBDCs.
Hey Bitcoiners,
At the Pacific Bitcoin Festival 2023, a panel led by Shane Hazel featuring experts Alex Gladstein, Matthew Pines, and Mike Brock discussed Bitcoin's role in a world grappling with declining trust in traditional institutions, shifting geopolitics, de-globalization, and the emergence of Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs).
They emphasized Bitcoin's potential to empower individuals in an era of institutional mistrust, hedge in uncertain geopolitical times, facilitate international transactions in a de-globalizing world, and provide privacy and financial sovereignty in the face of growing digital authoritarianism via CBDCs. The panel underscored Bitcoin's unique attributes in navigating these complex global challenges.
Enjoy!
