Ep. 54: Samson Mow - Why CBDCs Will Fail & Bitcoin Wins

Season 1 Episode 54

My guest today is Samson Mow, a Bitcoin OG, entrepreneur, and the CEO of JAN3 - a company focused on accelerating Bitcoin adoption worldwide, predominantly via nation states. Samson has played a pivotal role in advising governments like El Salvador on integrating Bitcoin into their economies.

In this episode, Samson shares his insights on the progress and impact of the Aqua wallet and its growing adoption in Latin America. We talk about the importance of engaging with politicians to push Bitcoin forward and the challenges of driving meaningful change at a national level. Samson talks about Tether’s role in emerging markets, the complexities of CBDCs and national stablecoins, and why they’ll most probably fail. We also dive into market trends, the dynamics behind adoption, and the next Bitcoin bull run. From wallets to nation-state adoption, Samson brings a unique perspective on the tools and strategies shaping Bitcoin’s global impact.

Tune in for a conversation about innovation, adoption, and how Bitcoin is laying the foundation for global financial freedom.
