In this collaboration with the Human Rights Foundation, Frank Corva (political correspondent at Bitcoin Magazine) sits down with Venezuelan opposition leader Leopoldo López for a fireside chat and open Q&A about:
How the Venezuelan government used the central bank to silently tax citizens through hyperinflation
Why López believes Bitcoin could have prevented the worst parts of Venezuela’s economic collapse
What it took to build a resistance movement under constant surveillance, censorship, and arrest
Why authoritarian regimes fear Signal, Tor, and Nostr
What López learned from organizing protests from a prison cell and a safe house while being hunted by intelligence services
How financial surveillance became a weapon, making privacy-preserving tools essential for political organizing
Why the World Liberty Congress is building infrastructure to connect dissidents across 60+ countries
Why U.S. and EU-based developers need to stop underestimating the real-world stakes of open-source tech
