What is sound money? Money that is scarce, durable, trusted, and difficult to manipulate. The quality of our money affects savings, investment, prices, and long-term planning. It's one of the most important conversations of our time. #SoundMoney #Bitcoin #SovereigntySummit

Our lineup is on fire 🔥🔥
Speaker Announcement: Efrat Fenigson What happens when someone inside the system begins asking difficult questions? We're excited to welcome @efenigson to Sovereignty Summit 2027. A former Chief Marketing Officer and one of Israel's top tech leaders, Efrat's journey took an unexpected turn during Covid as she witnessed government overreach and the erosion of personal freedoms. Today, Efrat is an independent journalist, public speaker, and host of the "You're The Voice" podcast. She writes and speaks on freedom, sovereignty, Bitcoin, CBDCs, propaganda, censorship, and the growing concentration of power shaping our world. Known for her willingness to challenge mainstream narratives and speak openly on controversial issues, Efrat brings a unique perspective shaped by both her corporate leadership background and her personal journey toward sovereignty. Join us in Queenstown, New Zealand, on 2–3 April 2027 to hear Efrat's insights on navigating a rapidly changing world and reclaiming individual agency. 🎟️ Tickets releasing soon. 🌐 sovereigntysummit.nz @thebitcoinbasin #SovereigntySummit #Bitcoin #Freedom #Sovereignty

Our local Educators from The Basin Francisco and Luli will be connecting with other educators from around the world. What a representation we have!
Very exciting days ahead! In just a few days we will attend the @OsloFF organized by the @HRF and hear firsthand from freedom fighters around the world. We will then take part in the Bitcoin Educators Unconference in Prague, hosted by @MyFirstBitcoin_ and @AmityAge where we will have the great opportunity to meet, connect, and learn from educators from all over the world, while sharing how we are helping build the @TheBitcoinBasin circular economy in Queenstown, NZ.

Testing a new @stacked_bitcoin feature this week. The concept isn't new, but the execution is, because doing this non-custodially from bank to bitcoin in 10s has never been done. Until now. Can you guess what it is?

🚨 The South African government is attempting to OUTLAW FINANCIAL FREEDOM. 🚫 Under the guise of "capital flow management," new draft regulations will effectively destroy self-custody and Bitcoin's promise of financial inclusion in our country. 🇿🇦 These aren't just rules for exchanges. They are a direct attack on EVERY South African. Here’s what they do: ‼️ BAN SELF-CUSTODY: By targeting transactions that touch global network infrastructure, they make self-custody illegal. ‼️ FORCE LIQUIDATION: They grant the state the power to force the sale of Bitcoin to the National Treasury. This is expropriation. ‼️ OUTLAW CIRCULAR ECONOMIES: Peer-to-peer transactions for goods and services will be deemed "black market" activity if they exceed an unspecified threshold. ‼️ GIVE THE STATE ARBITRARY POWER: The Minister can decide the "threshold" for illegality at any time, creating uncertainty for everyone. ✊ This is a war on open, permissionless money. It's a war on the unbanked. It's a war on your right to control your own wealth. 📜 And they're trying to do it WITHOUT A VOTE IN PARLIAMENT. ⏳ The deadline for public objection is either May 18 or June 10, depending on which government source is consulted. We have no time to waste. 👀SEE DRAFT HERE: treasury.gov.za/public com… 👇 SUBMIT YOUR OBJECTION HERE: ag.bitcoinzar.co.za/ 🔖 READ THE CRITICAL ANALYSIS: capecrypto.com/south-africa-… 📢 SHARE THIS POST. The world needs to see what is happening.
