I had the honor to interview María Corina Machado, the leader of the Venezuelan opposition, about how fiat money was weaponized against the Venezuelan people by the Chávez and Maduro regimes
She says Bitcoin is a "lifeline" and "vital means of resistance" and said that a future democratic Venezuelan government will use Bitcoin to rebuild the national reserves that the Chávistas stole and put Venezuela back on a path to peace and prosperity
I've put out a lot of content in the past few years but I think this is the most important thing I've done -- the implications are vast considering a) Venezuela is one of the world's largest energy exporters with some of the world's largest oil reserves and b) María Corina Machado is not some rogue leader or dictator but a US ally
I hope you can watch 🇻🇪

While I have mixed feelings about this presentation, I'm quoting and sharing it for awareness of the struggles the people of Venezuela are going through and for awareness of the evils of government-fostered inflation.

I believe there are better solutions to these problems than regime change. Please feel free to browse my libraries (below) to get the gist of what I have in mind.

Thanks for all your work @gladstein. The humanitarian importance of bitcoin is a no-brainer, it’s astonishing to think about what good it can do (and does already) for people: Enabling the freedom of money and freedom of monetary/value transactions for everyone.
Maria is ful of good itentions, but with dictatorships, the only thing that work is the use of brute force.
OMG 14 0's. I didn't know it was that bad.
$1= 100,000,000,000,000

How does the main opposition leader "being a US ally" help the people of Venezuela?
You literally wrote a book about how latin leaders under western influence wholesale their country to the West under IMF and World Bank. Or is it different this time ??
good question, thought the same ...
Certainly, some of us used Bitcoin as a monetary lifeline to the ill-fated hyperinflation of years ago. Unfortunately, not everyone entered this world. The smoke that chavismo sold with its cryptocurrency somewhat tarnished the term. Coupled with poor electric power services and stable internet access, this complicates things for the most novice user.
The fact that it will be used at some point by the State, as she suggests, may encourage curiosity. And to think that with the amount of energy dammed under the ground (oil) would be an incentive for a large mining industry, has been very interesting for many. But all that for now are dreams as long as the Chavista scum are in power.
For now few of us can use Bitcoin as an anti-State tool and not have the risk of inflation (which these days is becoming high again). Besides having out of Venezuelan banks our Money. And that this is blocked for thinking differently by these banks that may be an appendix of the state.
