Basecamp for Men E205: Bitcoin vs. CBDC

E205: Bitcoin vs. CBDC

 

E205 Introduction

Hello Basecampers. Today is Season Five’s last episode about Bitcoin. That might be a relief to some of you. Next season it will be on the docket again though. Why do I include these as part of the center of the Basecamp curriculum? Well, because it gives us maximum optionality, to use a concept that my guest is fond of.

Why do I love Bitcoin? It represents everything the state and the Globalists hate: freedom, sovereignty, optionality, self-responsibility, WE THE PEOPLE. They want us to continue to adopt systems with a centralized control structure. WE THE PEOPLE counter with decentralized money and systems that will drastically alter our future and the possibilities that await us.

Oh, it will take awhile to cleanse our souls of the taint of fiat money-its corruption, debasement, its massive wealth inequality, to mention just a few. But the more you study Bitcoin, the more it reveals itself as a great ally to humanity. A quiet warrior who snuck behind enemy lines to detonate a fucking bomb into systems that sought to centralize everything into a system meant to suffocate and suppress all human expression of individuality, joy, and personal freedom.

Did you know that the US Dollar has lost 97 percent of its purchasing power since 1913? Did you know that the dollar has lost 17 percent of its purchasing power in just the last 3 years alone? Something has to give.

Do you still think Bitcoin is a passing fad with no intrinsic value? Well, it has become the fastest asset to reach 1 trillion dollars To put it in perspective, it took Microsoft 44 years to reach 1 trillion in market cap. Apple took 42 years, Amazon 24 years, and Google 21 years. Bitcoin achieved this in just 12 years! And we haven’t even got to the institutional adoption yet that will just get accelerated with the spot ETF approval that looks to be heading our way in early 2024. Bitcoin looks like a loaded spring from where I sit. Do yourself and your family a favor and get off zero bro? Yes I’m talking to you. Don‘t stand around flat-footed wondering what is what. At this point, I think you have all the information you need.

Here are a few memes that relate to today’s show. One from Bitcoiner and visionary author Jeff Booth who says “Imagine watching what happens to other nations and their people as their currencies lost value yet failing to connect the dots to the consequences of it in your own country. Imagine.” 

And one from author Tom Clancy, who says “What the government is good at is collecting taxes, taking away your freedoms, and killing people. It‘s not good at much else.”

And a longer one but illuminating. I don‘t know who posted this, undoubtedly some Libertarian but it says

“125 years ago, you didn‘t have to ask permission form the government to: collect rain water, go fishing, own a property, start a business, build a home, get married, hunt, own a weapon, cut hair, sell a product, protest, sell food.

You can do virtually nothing without being extorted by the government and obtaining their permission first. If you still think you’re free, you‘re deluding yourself. You are just a free-range human living on a tax farm.”

And Jack Dorsey who simply says “Bitcoin changes absolutely everything.”

With these teeing up the episode, let’t get to our interview with Mark. Enjoy.

Basecamp for Men E192: The Bitcoin Signal

E192: The Bitcoin Signal with Special Guest

Connor Dent

 

E192 Introduction

Why Bitcoin? Because it represents truth and freedom and is an absolute game-changer for humanity. Particularly when you juxtapose it next to CBDC, which represent the Globalists attempt at more top down control of humanity.

I want to start by reading an excerpt from an article in Bitcoin Magazine. It’s the intro to an article on Amanda Cavaleri, a wonderful human, visionary, and Bitcoiner.

It says “Bitcoin possesses a unique identity and qualities that are cemented on the foundation of decentralization. Almost everyone who is doing the work to understand Bitcoin will eventually run into the cold, hard fact that, at its core, Bitcoin is about freedom. To those who have enjoyed individual liberties for their entire lives, the concept of freedom may be watered down or underappreciated. For those who live without it, freedom and individual liberty become pursuits of great importance.”

Aho.

Lots of news around Bitcoin with Blackrock‘s application for a BTC ETF and now we have Robert Kennedy Jr. coming out as very pro-Bitcoin candidate and very anti-CBDC. This is the pro-humanity, anti-globalist stance we are looking for in our Presidential candidates and our governors.

Today’s episode is with our Bitcoin friend Connor Dent. Nothing in this episode is meant to be taken as financial advise. Neither Connor nor I are certified as financial advisors. Think of this episode as two friends sitting around the fire, beer in hand, talking about the bright orange possibilities for humanity. Enjoy the episode.

Basecamp for Men E187: Gatekeepers and Bitcoin

E187: Gatekeepers and Bitcoin with Special Guest

Nozomi Hayase

 

E187 Introduction

Let’s see, I thought I would start off with a little overview of some of the next few episodes we have coming up. I have a good interview with Ole Dammegard, one of the most famous of all truthers out there. We will be unpacking what is going on in this spiritual war that we all find ourselves in. I have an upcoming episode with Sophie Maclean, who has a new book coming out. Sophie knows more about the human mind and human heart than just about anyone I know. Both Ole and Sophie are return guests.

And I am working on a July 4th episode, a special solo episode around my love of our great nation. July 4th happens to fall on a Tuesday this year so there is some synchronicity to that one.

Today is a bit of a hybrid episode. The topic is Bitcoin and my guest is Bitcoiner and writer Nozomi Hayase. But I wanted to read you a short piece by thought leader Jimmy Song first. This article first appeared in Bitcoin Magazine and the topic of this article and the latest issue of Bitcoin Magazine is gatekeepers. Enjoy Basecampers.

Nozomi Hayase Bio

Nozomi Hayase, Ph.D., is a prolific writer in the Bitcoin space with a background in psychology and human development. She is a contributing writer for Bitcoin Magazine. She focuses on Bitcoin’s incentives and its psychological and philosophical implications.

Basecamp for Men E167: Bitcoin and Our Future

E167: Bitcoin and Our Future with Special Guest Connor Dent

 

E167 Introduction

When I sketched out season five, I basically made a 4 quadrant grid with the topics we would be covering in the coming year. We will continue to seek Truth in each one of our quadrants. Recognizing that we are in an unconventional war pitting the Globalists on one side and humanity on the other and the enemy of humanity is using lies, deception, and propaganda to keep us confused, divided , and in the dark. Our most powerful weapon is Truth.

Truth about the Covid origins. Truth about Big Pharma. Truth about the WEF and the Globalist agenda. And Truth about money, both fiat and Bitcoin. Truth is how we win. There is a saying that you need to hear something interesting about Bitcoin THREE TIMES before you dive in and properly educate yourself. Our aim here on Basecamp, is to provide you with one, two, or all three of the insights about Bitcoin that will bring you properly over the bridge and on to new possibilities and new horizons for you.

There is sure to be many shocking revelations for humanity in the coming months. Our belief here at Basecamp and a belief we share with my guest today, is that BTC will emerge as a shining beacon of hope, a proper light at the end of the tunnel, as humanity starts to cut its way out of the confines of a monetary stranglehold that is built on lies, deception, and manipulation. What a time to be alive!

Connor Dent Bio

My guest today is Connor Dent. Connor is a Bitcoiner and a Director of Client Services at Unchained Capital. A company introducing new solutions to self-custody and new resources in the Bitcoin space. Connor is a lover of freedom and an eternal optimist. Here is my interview w Connor Dent. 

E167 Final Thoughts 

To find out more about Unchained Capital, go to unchained.com and click around. I worked with Connor and his team to onboard recently and I can’t recommend it enough. I believe this company will be a thought leader and resource for humanity for decades to come.

I love what Connor said about BTC being a source of Truth. It resonates. The Globalists and unelected leaders at the WEF will be pushing CBDC and pushing HARD. Just wait and see.

Want to read about CBDC, go to Newsweek and click on the link to Aubrey Strobels article titled “CBDC’s Will be the End of American Freedom.” I’m going to see if I can get her on Basecamp.

The word I was looking for when I was riffing with Connor was PARADOX. As in it is a paradox that there is, on one hand, only 21M BTC AND there is abundance for the whole planet because it increasingly is worth more and more over time. There is a collision of old paradigm and new paradigm in that statement. How can something with a finite amount ALSO AT THE SAME TIME offer abundance and freedom for the planet? That is the truth we are all coming to. Enjoy the learning Basecampers. Stack some Satoshis and we’ll see you around the fire next week.

 

 

 

 

Basecamp for Men E151: Around the Campfire Part 2

E151: Around the Campfire Part 2 w Matthew Marnitz

 

E151 Introduction

Hello Basecampers, I hope you are all well. Here is part 2 of my interview with futurist and mystic Matthew Marnitz.The Great Awakening is barreling along, isn’t it? You have humanity expanding its consciousness in a bunch of obvious ways. And you have these powerful new inputs that are vying for our attention.

Corruption has been laid bare in broad daylight for all to see. The old illusory, egoic structures are dissolving. How do we make space for the truth? It seems we need to make a LOT of room as what held everything together prior to this awakening was lies and deception. Now we all know. What happens next?

It‘s good to think of the esoteric topics like you would music. Don’t try to jam it into any of your known categories. Instead, let the download of new information settle in and see how it works its inner alchemy, transforming every assumption and illusion that came before it.

E151 Final Thoughts

I hope you enjoyed that far-reaching conversation. The ET conversation is being had all over the planet and, in fact, next week I have a woman on whom I just love. I can’t wait to introduce you to her.

There was some good resources that I would like to remind you. These will be part of your own inquiry and investigative journalism. It is always best to arrive at truth from your own curiousity and research.

Dr. Michael Salla‘s books on the secret space programs are absolutely essential to understanding this topic. I have four of them and they are all excellent. The four I have are US Air Force Secret Space Program, US Navy Secret Space Program, a third book just called Space Force, and the most recent one I read called Galactic Federations and Councils which gives you an overview of who is out there, what they are about, and how they are collaborating with our military and certain corporations. Really interesting and insightful reading.

The book Matthew and I were talking about is Bringers of the Dawn by Barbara Marciniak. It is a classic and passed around by those in the know.

Thank you Basecampers, I look forward to sitting around the fire next week with you.
