You're The Voice - Episode 18: Prince Filip Karađorđević of Serbia

My guest today is Prince Filip Karađorđević of Serbia , Chief Strategy Officer at JAN3, a global financial technology company. Having previously worked 15 years in traditional finance, Prince Filip joined JAN3 because he believes in Bitcoin's potential to bring freedom and sovereignty to billions around the world. As the CSO, Prince Filip champions the cause of financial freedom through digital assets like Bitcoin and stablecoins, while promoting legal frameworks that support economic empowerment for the unbanked. Prince Filip is a frequent speaker at international conferences and interacts with heads of state, congresspeople, and C-suite executives. He believes in freedom and the new Renaissance that Bitcoin enables.

In this episode we discuss the history of the monarchy in Serbia, including its benefits, such as protection of individual property rights and religious freedom. Filip shares his personal journey to working in the Bitcoin industry with JAN3. He explains the importance of top-down approach to Bitcoin adoption, and we end with how Bitcoin can solve issues like wars and violence by changing the incentive structure of money.

This episode is the third of 5 special episodes filmed at the Bitcoin Conference in Amsterdam, recorded 9 weeks ago, and aired in delay due to the War in Israel; Thanks for your support & understanding.
