Stefan Molyneux, Bitcoin: The Psychology of Money

Posted on by

“What does psychological research reveal about people’s perception of money and value? What mental barriers do Bitcoin adoptees need to overcome to help others welcome the new paradigm? Stefan Molyneux, host of Freedomain Radio, brings the latest scientific insights into the psychology of money and value to bear on the challenges of evangelizing Bitcoin to the masses!”

Ukraine Protestors Turn to Bitcoin to Ease Cash Crisis

Posted on by

“Field surgeries and hospitals treat the wounded, kitchens feed the crowds, blankets and clothing are distributed to those who need them, and people with vehicles shuttle everything around.  Not only is this a major logistical and people-management feat to co-ordinate, but it must all be paid for somehow. So, expatriate Ukrainians around the world have joined the fight to campaign and raise funds to assist the struggle back home.  PayPal only allows money to be sent out of Ukraine, while international bank transfers can take days to complete. Much of the time, transfers happen through friends and trust networks.  This week sees a new campaign to raise funds directly via bitcoin.”

Liberty: A Muslim-American Perspective

Posted on by

“It is true that we don’t really appreciate and truly understand what we have until we lose it and liberty for me started its slow but steady descent into oblivion on Sept. 11 2001, a day that went down in infamy not just for America but for the entire world. In the days and weeks following, it became apparent to me that nothing would stay the same and slowly but surely and all in the name of ‘security’ and ‘freedom’ the days and years following the horrid events of Sept.11 paved the way for a barrage of infringements on my rights as a human being and as a citizen.”

An Armed People in Mexico and Their Threat to the State

Posted on by

“The self-defense groups have been organizing themselves–and have seized towns throughout Mexico in over 11 states–to fight against cartels like the Knights Templar in Michoacan under the umbrella of the Consejo de Autodefensas Unidas de Michoacan (Council ofUnited Self-Defense Groups of Michoacan). The Mexican government just sent their military to disarm them in Parácuaro , according to reports shooting 7-12 and killing 4 people, including an 11 year old girl, only to later return their weapons due to public pressure. People from Parácuaro came out to the main road to confront the military with sticks and stones, which forced them to return the weapons.”

Residents, politicians push to shut Satoshi Forest homeless camp

Posted on by

“Local homeless outreach group Sean’s Outpost acquired the property in July and since October has let homeless people camp there without charge.  Sean’s Outpost founder Jason King said he plans for the property to become a sustainable refuge for the homeless.  But a permanent homeless camp is the last thing the residents of Mayfair want in their community.  So Escambia County will hold a Special Magistrate Hearing on Tuesday to decide whether Satoshi Forest will be allowed to continue to operate.  Buried among oak trees and plentiful bamboo, the camp is a sporadic collection of about a dozen tents and shelters that range from the basic dome tent to elaborate tarp constructions.”

Jeffrey Tucker: The Freedom of Rose Wilder Lane

Posted on by

“Her love of America has nothing to do with the jingoism we know all too well. It is a love of individualism, experimentation, risk, entrepreneurship, creativity, reward, and the inspiration that comes with building a new civilization itself. What a hymn to our history she writes!  And note the date. This was written in wartime. There were censorship rules at the time, things you could and couldn’t say. What might she have written about war authoritarianism that she did not dare to write? I think we can imagine. In fact, you can read between the lines. She saw America betraying its history, principles, and destiny.  And what would she write today?”

Escape From Political Control

Posted on by

“Frustrated with their political prospects, many libertarians are coming to the conclusion that instead of trying to change government, a better strategy might be to simply sidestep it entirely. Even self-described Democrats and Obama supporters, like startup founder and venture capitalist Balaji Srinivasan, seem to be concluding that in order to get space to experiment and innovate in today’s political climate, an ‘exit’ might be in order.  Srinivasan expanded on his vision in a couple of essays in which he proposed what he calls ‘inverse Amish’ spaces. Quite opposite to the Amish the point would be to push the envelope of what’s allowed.”

Bitcoin paradise

Posted on by

“Set in a secluded valley 17 kilometres from Curacavi, Chile, on the road between Santiago and the luxurious beach resort of Viña del Mar, Galt’s Gulch is a mere forty-five minutes by car from the Santiago airport, but, as Mr Johnson says, ‘it feels like you’re at the end of the Earth.’ Yet his goal is not isolationist, he adds. ‘We’re not trying to hide from the world. In fact we want people to find us.’  Lots are priced in both dollars and Bitcoin, with big discounts for buyers who pay in that crypto-currency. Many early adopters of Bitcoin find themselves sitting on small fortunes, and Mr Johnson hopes to tempt them to diversify into real estate.”
