The two discuss Zelenar’s journey into crypto, how he came about to writing his book, why the right to transact is as important if not more important than other rights in the Constitution, will people wake up when CBDCs arrive and how bad does it have to get for people to understand that the right to transact is important? They also talk about different governments around the world trying to implement CBDCs and which regions have a higher risk of implementing it. They then discuss Monero vs Bitcoin in terms of censorship resistance and why the tech behind Monero is better at resisting state censorship and surveillance. ⏱Timestamps: 00:00:00 Intro 00:03:00 Zelinar XY (ZXY): Introduction and Background 00:07:30 Introduction to the Concept of "The Right to Transact" 00:13:50 Technological Advances and Impacts on Privacy 00:17:50 References to the Right to Transact in History 00:28:00 ZXY's Proposition for Building Unstoppable Tech 00:40:50 The Potential Dystopian Future: CBDCs as Tools for Social Control 00:55:30 Technocracy, Tyranny, and the Centralization of Power 01:02:05 Speculations on the Adoption of CBDCs in the United States 01:10:20 The Biggest Power Forces and Interest Groups Behind CBDCs 01:17:05 High Modernism and Its Effects 01:24:00 Monero and Bitcoin as Solutions 01:29:30 Bitcoin's Vulnerabilities and Trust in the Crypto Ecosystem 01:40:20 Conclusion and Closing Remarks 01:44:35 Outro 🔗Links: Purchase Cafe & tip the farmers w/ XMR! https://gratuitas.org/ Guest➡️: https://zelinarxy.com/ https://twitter.com/focaballena Article: https://www.coindesk.com/consensus-magazine/2023/09/07/reject-cbdcs-embrace-the-right-to-transact/ ➡️Join XMRtopia TELEGRAM: https://t.me/monerotopia ➡️ Join XMRtopia MATRIX: https://matrix.to/#/%23monerotopia%3Amonero.social 🚨SPONSORS: Monero.com wallet by Cake Wallet 🍰, the first open-source Monero wallet for iOS.
