A Progressive's Case for Bitcoin (w/ HRF & Jason Maier) | PubKey Spaces

⁠Jason Maier⁠ (author of A Progressive's Case for Bitcoin) and ⁠Zac Guignard⁠⁠ (Human Rights Foundation Research Associate) join The Daniel for a live-streamed chat in the PubKey Parlor, where they dive deep into:

- How a single $20 purchase (and a wave of paranoia) sparked Jason’s obsession
- The moment Jason knew Bitcoin's optics had a long way to go
- Why progressives misunderstand Bitcoin, and how Jason is working to bridge that gap
- The risk of Bitcoin becoming a single-party issue, and the fight to keep it politically independent
- Why Bitcoin adoption will be won by reaching people who don’t know they need it yet
- How Jason’s own wife became a Bitcoin advocate
- A clear-eyed take on the Trump-era Bitcoin pump, and why Bitcoiners need to keep their long-term vision sharp
