I am joined by Alex Martynov, a leadership coach based in Prague originally from Ukraine. Alex founded the first website in Ukraine dedicated to Austrian economics and libertarianism and he also has an interest in Bitcoin and Freedom technology. We discuss the big questions of purpose, self-actualisation, and meaning making as well as explore the nature of liberty, and what is meant by the idea of the good life. We also talk about how psychology can be applied not only to individuals but to states and societies and the complex relationship people may have with the idea of freedom.

I talk with Sovereign Origin about his concept FITS (Financially Independent, Time Sovereign) a new alternative to the traditional FIRE movement (Financially Independent, Retire Early). While both approaches aim to escape the “rat race,” FITS redefines the pursuit of financial independence through the lens of Bitcoin, focusing on sovereignty over one's time with a unique perspective towards wealth, work, and life. We had a great talk about the FITS concept, exploring some of the technical aspects, as well as some of the challenges inherent in the traditional FIRE approach which is built on the premise of the ongoing growth of the stock market and ultimately is not truely independent because the state can always come and turn off or confiscate your retirement fund – Something they can't do with Bitcoin. --- Links: Bitcoin.fits.money - https://bitcoin.fits.money/ Sovereign Origin on X - https://x.com/sovereignorigin Sovereign Origin on Nostr - https://njump.me/npub15tkakfjtkcmg4aaa2hatapj2gsjslr587nvga8q8t49nhc5x32qq3fnhq4 The Price of Tomorrow: Why Deflation is the Key to an Abundant Future by Jeff Booth - https://amzn.to/4hyfasq --- Connect with The Transformation of Value X: https://x.com/TTOVpodcast Nostr at: https://njump.me/npub1uth29ygt090fe640skhc8l34d9s7xlwj4frxs2esezt7n6d64nwsqcmmmu Or send an email to hello@thetransformationofvalue.com and I will get back to you!

Bayani Mills is the Secretary & Acting CEO at the Australian Bitcoin Industry Body, providing advocacy on behalf of their Bitcoin industry members and advancing the adoption and understanding of Bitcoin in Australia. We take a deep dive into Bayani's work with the industry body: educating politicians, making submissions on bills before parliament, and trying to carve out a clear space for Bitcoin in the minds of the public and politicians. Not everybody agrees with the idea of engaging the political leviathan, but as Bayani outlines there can be real consequences to inaction and though Bitcoin functions fine regardless, regressive policy can make life hard for everyday Australians to get started with Bitcoin. --- Connect with The Transformation of Value X: https://x.com/TTOVpodcast Nostr at: npub1uth29ygt090fe640skhc8l34d9s7xlwj4frxs2esezt7n6d64nwsqcmmmu Or send an email to hello@thetransformationofvalue.com and I will get back to you! --- Support The Transformation of Value: Bitcoin tip address: bc1qlfcr2v73tntt6wvyp2yu064egvyeery6xtwy8t Lightning tip address: codyellingham@fountain.fm If you send a tip please email or DM me so I can thank you! --- Credits: Music by Simon James French - https://www.simonjamesfrench.com/ --- Links: Australian Bitcoin Industry Body - https://bitcoinindustrybody.org.au/ Bayani Mills on X - https://x.com/bayanimills

Hubertus hosts the monthly Austrian Economics Salon at Vienna's Hayek Institute and he shares some fascinating insight into the nature of base money and credit money, how we can understand these from a Bitcoin and Austrian economics perspective as well as what he sees as the next step for growing the Bitcoin circular economy. Hubertus is a key figure in developing the Bitcredit Protocol, an open-source initiative focussed on building a flexible credit money layer on top of Bitcoin for enabling businesses to finance working capital needs, using bills of exchange, e-cash, and the proof of the work of the real economy. --- Connect with The Transformation of Value X: https://x.com/TTOVpodcast Nostr at: npub1uth29ygt090fe640skhc8l34d9s7xlwj4frxs2esezt7n6d64nwsqcmmmu Or send an email to hello@thetransformationofvalue.com and I will get back to you! --- Support The Transformation of Value: Bitcoin tip address: bc1qlfcr2v73tntt6wvyp2yu064egvyeery6xtwy8t Lightning tip address: codyellingham@fountain.fm If you send a tip please email or DM me so I can thank you! --- Credits: Music by Simon James French - https://www.simonjamesfrench.com/ --- Links: Bitcredit Protocol - https://www.bit.cr/ Hubertus on X - https://x.com/HubertusVIE The Theory of Money and Credit by Ludwig von Mises - https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/154246.The_Theory_of_Money_and_Credit Denationalisation of Money by Friedrich A.
