broker on Maui, who tells us his story of how he got into Bitcoin, why it
is interesting to him, the parallels of Bitcoin to his personal journey
and also my journey, his real life use cases with Bitcoin and why Bitcoin is
real. Bitcoin can allow person to person generosity over the entire planet. I
think that's an incredible thing. You're taking these charitable organizations
out of the middle and you're just saying, I feel like being generous, here's
somebody who needs something and in 10 minutes they have it and it's going right
there. I think that's amazing. - Liam Ball I do like some of the the ethical
changes or ideological changes that one tends to feel when you dive into the
Bitcoin space. Things like responsibility and not entrusting third parties or
governments. I like that aspect of encouraging humans to take responsibility for
their situations in a self sovereign way but also in a community way. I think at
the community level, where you live and helping people around you is really the
best way to offer that kind of help. - Liam Ball Topics: Bitcoin and
Buddhism Being a Bitcoiner and coming out of the closet Use cases: supporting
