Access Tribe's Bitcoin Podcast

“I don’t pretend to understand the wider, spiritual or extra-dimensional overtones of what’s happening. I just experience them, mainly as mind-bogglingly and statistically impossible synchronicities that reassert themselves over long waves rippling throughout my lifetime.” - Mark JeftovicMark Jeftovic and I met at the “Thank God for Bitcoin” conference in Miami, May 2023, where we were introduced by the legendary Greg Foss. The genesis of this 100th episode of the Access Tribe Podcast was an article that Mark published October 2024. It was captivating, and I have been pestering him for an interview ever since.This episode is called “Revelation” because we unpick a series of synchronicities Mark experienced related to the “Mark of the Beast” spoken about in the book of Revelation.Mark believes that the following verses in the Book of Revelation reflect may reflect the developments we have seen in Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDC - The Mark of the Beast) and Bitcoin (the white stone).Revelation 13:16-18 (Central Bank Digital Currencies or CBDC)“And he causes all, the small and the great, and the rich and the poor, and the free men and the slaves, to be given a mark on their right hand, or on their forehead,And he provides that no one should be able to buy or to sell, except the one who has the mark, either the name of the beast or the number of his name.Here is wisdom. Let him who hath understanding calculate the number of the beast, for the number is that of a man; and his number is six hundred and sixty-six.”Revelation 2:17 (Bitcoin Seed Phrase)“To the one who overcomes, I will give some of the hidden manna. I will also give him a white stone, with a new name written on the stone that no one knows except the one who receives it”Read Mark’s related articles here:* The Spirituality Behind Bitcoin* Bitcoin vs CBDCs & The Spiritual Battle for the Soul of HumanityYou may also be interested in these articles:* Money Messiah: God, Bitcoin, and The Evolution of Consciousness by John Vallis* Why People Wonder if Bitcoin is Alien Technology by Tomer Strolight This is a public episode.

It was awesome to have the opportunity to interview the engineer for one of the coolest platforms in the bitcoin ecosystem - Peach Bitcoin.It’s rare that one gets to interview the people actually building stuff, so we were grateful to have Alex Brou, developer at Peach Bitcoin on the show.We took a dive into how the platform works, how it differentiates itself, and why you should use it!Highlights from our conversation:* Peach has released a new version called Peach 69, which unlocks a lot of volume and is 100% backwards compatible with users that don’t update the app.* Peach is an extremely small female-founded company: just 5 people* Peach is growing, currently on an investment round, to scale massively.* Peach has never been hacked, has a great reputation, and we are working to become even more pleasant to our users (smaller fees, more anonymity, etc).* Startups in the BTC world are not like startups in the Fiat or AltCoin world: results are mandatory, they cannot fail!Some cool videos and info about Peach:Check out their website HERE This is a public episode.

This week, Canadians headed to the polls for a federal election. In the lead-up, many anticipated a decisive victory for the Conservative Party of Canada, under the leadership of Pierre Poilievre. The Liberal Party, previously led by Justin Trudeau, had overseen significant economic challenges, stagnant GDP growth, an impressive list of ethics violations and a 90% increase in food bank usage since 2019, leaving Canadians eager, even desperate, for change.Rather than call an election, Justin Trudeau stepped down as party leader and Mark Carney, the former governor of the Bank of England, UK and Irish passport holder and long-time UK resident, was appointed interim Prime Minister just weeks before calling an election. Despite Carney’s checkered fiscal record at the Bank of England, limited time spent in Canada, and ties to the outgoing Trudeau administration as their economic advisor, Carney secured a victory that caught the international community off guard.This unexpected outcome has sparked a series of events that will very likely see the break-up of the country currently known as Canada.To make sense of this political earthquake, we spoke with Albertan Dave Bradley to understand how we arrived at this juncture and what the future may hold.About DaveDave is the host of the Bitcoin Rodeo conference in Calgary, AB as well as a founder and advisor to several bitcoin companies. He is also allegedly the strongest and best looking entrepreneur in Canada.Follow Dave here:* X - https://x.com/BitcoinBrains* X - https://x.com/TheBitcoinRodeo📺 Watch the full episode here: This is a public episode.

In recent years, a growing consensus has emerged about an impending 'Great Shift' - a fundamental transformation in humanity's collective consciousness. Our tolerance for authoritarian overreach, mass surveillance, and the erosion of personal freedoms has reached a tipping point, signaling deep societal metamorphosis.This concept of radical transformation resonates across spiritual traditions, with astrologers and faith leaders from Christianity to Islam noting extraordinary planetary alignments and energy convergences occurring this very March. These phenomena coincide with what historians might recognize as the climax of epochal cycles.In our latest podcast episode, we're joined by Holly - a former Wall Street professional who has dedicated years to researching this paradigm shift.

It all began with Billi’s childhood trip to San Francisco, where the billboards of vibrant artistry stretched across the cityscape. As a young teen, Billi stood mesmerized beneath their glow—a moment of epiphany under the Californian sun and smog—this was where Billi’s future lay, in crafting designs that didn’t just exist but spoke, transforming ordinary spaces into realms of experiential imagination.Growing up with entrepreneurial parents who pivoted to emergency response after Hurricane Katrina, Billi inherited a legacy of resilience and innovation. Billi’s family roots in Southern Louisiana, coupled with firsthand experiences of rebuilding and providing emergency aid, instilled in them a profound understanding of impact and purpose. By the time Billi started driving, they knew they wanted more than a career; they wanted a calling—something that would blend personal passion with meaningful change, something they could build alongside a partner, mirroring their parents’ unique partnership.At Voss Alan & 202Ware, where Billi is a Co-Founder, their designs are more than visual—they are experiences crafted through the lens of someone who navigated the world partially unseen until middle school. Billi’s early years, blurred without proper glasses, taught them the power of color, pattern, and light over clarity. Today, these elements are foundational to their human-centered design approach, ensuring their creations are accessible and impactful, reaching out to touch everyone, even those who view the world through different eyes.These experiences have crystallized Billi’s commitment to cultivating a workspace not just for achieving but for thriving, ensuring that those who journey with them find a balance that fuels both their inner and outer worlds.This is more than Billi’s career; it’s their story—one of vision, resilience, and boundless creativity.Join the waitlist for the Web3 Designer apprentice program:Apprenticeship Waitlist FormSubscribe to the Magazine here:Purchase MagazinesFollow Billi here:https://www.linkedin.com/in/billirogers/https://x.com/BitsOfBilli📺 Watch the full episode here: This is a public episode.

Eighteen months ago, we interviewed Alana Mediavilla, the Director and Producer of the award-winning documentary Dirty Coin. At that time, she was approximately six months into a project that would become not only one of the defining documentaries on Bitcoin mining, but also a film capturing an era that stretches from the creation of the internet to the advent of sound money. Alana Mediavilla founded her production company ‘Filmkik’ over 10 years ago and has been producing videos for Silicon Valley companies throughout this time. She has had an interest in bitcoin since 2017, but increasingly she came to realise the importance of bitcoin in protecting individual and societal freedoms throughout the world. Having observed some of the rhetoric around the environmental damage that bitcoin mining was allegedly causing, she decided to investigate further. The result is the documentary ‘Dirty Coin’ which held its premiere at the Bitcoin Film Festival in Warsaw, 20th April 2024, where it won the award for best movie. The film explores bitcoin mining, one of its underlying technologies of bitcoin's ‘proof-of-work’, and grid financing.
