"Women are the driving force behind purchase & economic decisions. They are more risk averse, their DNA is built to preserve life, to preserve everything that supports life. So the role of a woman in the home finances is irreplaceable." -- @alenasatoshi on @You’re The Voice.

"Inflation is just a kicker. Now you can print paper... it's a great business for the state" -- @Max Hillebrand explains on @You’re The Voice.

"How do you see the role of stablecoins evolving? And what's your opinion about the latest US legislation of stablecoins, especially your take on people calling it CBDCs?" -- @npub1s5yq...6q7z answers on @You’re The Voice.

This week I participated in a panel about the changing monetary order & Bitcoin's potential. I sat next to Oded Salomy, formerly Head of Payments at Israel's Central Bank, who wrote on LinkedIn that my take in the panel was "puckish": "Efrat Fenigson offered a puckish take — that Bitcoin’s decentralization makes it “the solution,” what she sees as a powerful response to centralized central banking, and that massive retail payments will ultimately flow through it." I answered him: "It was a pleasure meeting you and hearing your serious takes, Oded, unlike my "puckish" ones :) I hope to witness in my lifetime the puckish changes I was referring to, hopefully in a reality that separates money and state, and gives back citizens some of the powers taken from them by central banks and their money printer, and governments and their reckless fiscal policies. Both are debasing people's fiat currencies and making them poorer, while offering them the overrated and at times non-existent "trust and safety". Bitcoin has the potential to revolutionise the monetary order, let's wait and see." >> More of my "puckish" take in my new op-ed, link below.

Next gen cbdc. Worldcoin.

“The state is not your friend” - I urged. “We are in a race to change the global monetary system. In the long run, Bitcoin will win. In the short term, stablecoins will help us get there, and CBDCs will teach people a lesson along the way.” Earlier this week on stage at ‘Blockchain Expert’ conference, Israel.

I kid you not, this was the WiFi list at the Bali airport yesterday. Balinese must have a good sense of humour 😅😬

GM The sandflies in the Island of Sumba killed me. I never knew it can be that itchy… all over the body. Damn.

I was interviewed for “Bitcoin Archive” @Bitcoin Archive! 🔗 link below. Archie writes: “Governments are tightening their grip on money through surveillance. I talk to Efrat who explains the BIG picture with CBDCs, media propaganda, & how Bitcoin breaks the matrix of control.”

GM - from today’s best office in Sumba Island. Got up at sunrise, had a swim, fruit, coffee, grounding and work. I’m full of sand flies bites. Life is good. Life is complicated. Life is life. Make the most of it.
