What an excellent team you two make.

Really nice job getting the word out and helping halt the chaos attempting to surround us.

Best

Great to see two of my favourite intelligent souls on one podcast with relevant topics in such a great exchange.

Efrat, good on you to have sent your son abroad to keep him safe. It must be very difficult to separate yourself from him; but, it is a selfless act of love by a wonderful and thoughtful mother. He is blessed to have you as his mom.

Finally finished listening to this Live episode! I was so bummed I couldn't join you live as I usually do, but I have to say I really enjoyed this! I've said this before, but you literally have the most interesting guests! I had not head of Alex before this, but really liked him and he had a ton of fascinating perspectives. One that stood out early, (although a bit unsettling), was his comment that "they have to destroy the economy and make the population miserable first (make unemployment high, etc. ) so people are more prone to supporting violence. Unfortunately, he is spot on here. That is, when the economy is strong, and things are going well (not much division in society), people are not inclined to support going to war. Very true. So his premise that they aren't planning for war "now" but perhaps in 2029/2030 timeframe was certainly disturbing, and hopefully this can be averted somehow. I was actually encouraged by his take that he thought that CBDCs were so difficult to implement that he wasn't sure if Europe could pull it off any time soon or perhaps not at all. Another cause for hope was his comment that "there are many signs that we are winning and the only way we can lose is to give up and surrender). Overall, a really fascinating episode, that I highly recommend listening to in it's entirety. It's one those discussions that I wish we could make "Mandatory" for the entire planet. Clearly, I need to give Alex a follow and listen to more of his content and thoughts. BTW, the two of you are quite a powerful duo in a discussion like that, and would think you two would crush anyone in a debate about any of these topics, lol. And finally, he is spot on with his final comment about your contagious smile :)

I agree with your assessment of the UX Efrat. Definitely still work to do there.

However, Substack now rolled out livestreaming via RTMP as a Beta feature and it seems to work pretty well.

I have it available in my dashboard so you probably have it too.

since i’m one person, and this is live, without help from any producer, I wouldn’t take the risk… when the UX improves I may use it. but it’s great that they’re offering it

Your conversation with Alex was great! I follow Alex for sometime now, he's great, and I'm happy to have met you now. Bitcoin does indeed have a finit supply, tha's one of the reasons why it's flawed imo. Maybe that's a discussin for another time. Happy to follow and subscribe.

Nice to meet you too!

It’s bitcoin’s greatest super powers!! Learn more about fiat infinite supply and all the mess it causes in the world, to understand why the antidote to that is a finite supply, scarce asset.

Sound decentralised and private money is Monero!

For privacy yes. For soundness, finite supply, disinflationary - Bitcoin.

Beware Jeffrey Sachs...in Europe promoting Global Governance to control biolabs for example. A wolf in sheep's clothing.

I find it hard to accept the notion that Forrest Trump is playing some sort of 5-D Chess with the Russians. Seriously? The guy is a cretin. He proves this every time he opens his mouth.

I see no evidence that the Russians are supporting him in any way. They just seem to be shrugging their shoulders and going about continuing winning their war, bit by bit.

I talked to an 80yr old lady today in Germany. She told me her relative was 18.5 years old 1941, he got drafted and 1947 was released from being prisoner of war. That kid wasted 7.5 yrs of his life for a Bankers war. Got no education and was lucky not to be killed in Hitler and fascist Bankers war against Russia. Her parents lost their villa in Stettin (now Poland). Say no to war!
