An OG Bitcoiner Explains Why He Left America | Ep. 213 — No. 16 Myles

What happens when an OG Bitcoiner looks at America’s debt, taxes, insurance, and rising cost of living and decides to leave the blast radius entirely? In this episode, Miles returns to Sat Chats to share why he moved to Mexico, why he still believes Bitcoin is hope, and why stacking sats may be the clearest path to freedom in a system that feels increasingly impossible to escape In this conversation, Miles talks with Sat Chats about why Bitcoin is more than an investment — it’s hope, sovereignty, and a way to escape the financial hamster wheel. They get into why he left America’s debt-and-expense “blast radius” for Mexico, how Bitcoin removes counterparties through self-custody and peer-to-peer exchange, and why consistently stacking sats can help ordinary people reclaim freedom and long-term purchasing power - and why it matters for people trying to understand Bitcoin more deeply.
