We were able to participate as a team at the Oslo Freedom Forum this year, as it aligns perfectly with what we are building for here at Foundation. We sponsored this year through giving away 15 Passport’s to attendees who had a clear need for a better way to store and use their Bitcoin as they fight for freedom, and we can’t wait to share their stories with you throughout the year, starting with today’s episode.
