Season 1 Episode 22
🎙️You're The Voice - Ep. 22: Christian Keroles - Bitcoin is Changing the Game
My guest today is Christian Keroles (aka CK), Director of Financial Freedom at the Human Rights Foundation (HRF), a passionate and dedicated advocate for Bitcoin and a speaker at industry events. In his role at HRF, he’s focusing on advancing open-source Bitcoin development and global Bitcoin adoption. Formerly as Chief Operating Officer at BTC Inc, CK was instrumental in shaping Bitcoin Magazine into the foremost publication it is today, and he has played a pivotal role in establishing one of the world's most influential conferences in the Bitcoin & fintech industries—the Bitcoin Conference.
In this episode CK shares his journey into the Bitcoin world and his views on central bank digital currencies (CBDCs), while outlining the advantages of Bitcoin's open and neutral nature compared to CBDCs. He dives into Bitcoin’s competitive edges, adoption status, and the potential to revolutionize the way we measure and communicate value. CK encourages people, especially the younger generation, to stay hopeful and open-minded about the possibilities that Bitcoin offers for a better future.
(This episode was filmed at the Bitcoin Amsterdam Conference in Oct. 2023 and is still highly relevant).
