Is Bitcoin the Soil for Regeneration? - General Kenobi
In this episode, I sit down with Kenobi to explore one of the most surprising and transformative forces I’ve encountered in the past year: Bitcoin.
Kenobi shares his unique journey into the world of Bitcoin, shaped by a multicultural upbringing and a deep curiosity about systems, money, and human behavior. Together, we explore the roots and architecture of Bitcoin, from its philosophical foundations to the technical mechanics of mining, consensus, and decentralization.
We ask: what if Bitcoin isn’t just digital money but a foundational layer for rethinking energy, value, and human coordination? We look at Bitcoin’s potential as a tool for regeneration, long-term thinking, and sovereignty in an age of automation, surveillance, and systemic breakdown.
Whether you’re new to Bitcoin or looking to deepen your understanding, this episode is a rich, layered entry point into one of the most important paradigm shifts of our time.
