John Vallis is a Bitcoin podcaster who hosts Bitcoin Rapid Fire. In this interview, we discuss what freedom means, parallels between Bitcoin and religious values, living a meaningful life, psychedelics and their importance, and a new civilisation centred on truth. - - - - Bitcoin provides freedom. Financial freedom; freedom from coercion; freedom of movement. But how should those who benefit from Bitcoin use this freedom? Should they use it to fulfil their own desires? Or are there higher values that Bitcoiners should strive to attain? Should Bitcoiners draw back into their citadels? Or, should they actively engage in trying to shape a better world? Such decisions will be influenced by the values such individuals hold. In our fiat economy, self-interest is deemed to be the principle that supports a functioning and prosperous society. Institutionally driven moral codes have been supplemented by the needs of the market. Religion has been replaced; prayer and faith have given way to data and patterns. It is assumed that science and rejection of the divine have driven a more advanced society. And yet, ephemeral pursuits of money and power seem to be the root of a lot of the problems we face today. Some feel that more sophisticated behaviours were displayed by previous civilisations: humans have previously been more in tune with nature. Psychedelics is thought to have played a part in this process. Many cultures throughout history used psychedelic practices to enable them to break away from their ego. This gave them a wider perspective - a more holistic view of the world around them. Bitcoin shows that current values in a fiat world are misaligned: selfish short term pursuits are failing us; we have lost sight of the truth. Could psychedelics hold the key to helping more people to make that shift to see the fallacy of our current systems? Is the loss of ego needed to determine how best to mould this new world evolving around us?
“I think we're at the precipice of really next-level civilizational change, and it's probably going to be messy a little bit in the transitionary period. But on the other side of this, or as we move forward, I think more good is coming than bad, and that's something to be hopeful for.”— John VallisJohn Vallis is a Bitcoin podcaster who hosts Bitcoin Rapid Fire.

The annual Bitcoin conference is the place to be and to learn about the impact that crypto is having. Bitcoin 2022 in Miami carried that tradition by being much bigger than anything done before. John Vallis was MC for some of the discussions and joins us this episode with an analysis of the event. Not only was the attendance nearly double of last year, but the key note speaker was non other than Jordan Peterson which shows how Bitcoin is moving into the mainstream and is no longer niche, but a financial tool that is being widely adopted. With countries adopting it as an official currency, is it time to jump onboard? John Vallis is a proud Canadian, a passionate bitcoin advocate and an enthusiastic explorer of the profound implications it represents and is also one of the highest-quality podcasters in the Bitcoin space with his show “Bitcoin Rapid Fire.” He has interviewed Bitcoiners of all ages and from all walks of life like developers, sovereign individuals and more, including Jordan Peterson and Michael Saylor, the CEO of MicroStrategy. He has also been using his platform in these recent times to question the tyranny being implemented in his home country, the leadership of Trudeau and the eroding freedoms of the Canadian citizens.

The financial crackdown on the Freedom Convoy in Canada will have shocked everyone. When a liberal, democrat government has the legal right to cut off your access to finance, it spells the end of any cordial relationship between the people and its politicians. John Vallis joins us to discuss the current situation and how Bitcoin could be the solution to this new tyranny. Hearts of Oak interviewed John last year and his deep understanding and passion for cryptocurrency struck a chord with us, and when we witnessed Trudeau's latest crackdown on Freedom, we knew that he was just the person to help us understand it.
