“Bitcoin is most useful if more people use it.” – Erik
My guest today is Erik. Erik is a UX designer and has worked on many bitcoin projects including Hoseki and eNuts, a cashu wallet for android and iOS. Cashu is a free and open-source Chaumian ecash system built for Bitcoin that offers near-perfect privacy for users of custodial Bitcoin applications.
We discuss Bitcoin design, usability, cashu and the privacy benefits and importance, scaling bitcoin both at a protocol and cultural layer, political ideologies, freedom of speech, hope for reform, and more.
Follow Erik on X.
