Panel discussion
Practicing Cypherpunk: Privacy, Peer-to-Peer, and Staying Free with Bitcoin
Bitcoin was born from cypherpunk ideals: privacy, decentralization, and peer-to-peer freedom. But as nation-states and institutions start stacking sats, many are asking—is the original vision slipping away?
This panel brings together early builders and privacy advocates to explore what cypherpunk philosophy still means in 2025—and how it can be preserved in a world of KYC, surveillance, and corporate co-option.
Led by OG cypherpunk Juraj Bednár, the conversation features:
Is Bitcoin more a social or technological revolution?
Why P2P, non-KYC Bitcoin still matters
How individuals can take practical steps to protect privacy, sovereignty, and signal in an increasingly centralized world
This isn’t nostalgia—it’s a reminder of why we’re here, how to use the tools, and what’s at stake if we forget.

Hodling is just the beginning. Bitcoin is a weapon, not a savings account. In this fireside chat with two Bitcoin ninjas, we’ll dive into the practical use of Bitcoin - payments, loans against BTC, and a community without a central authority. Bitcoin as a lifestyle. Use it - or you’ll lose it all.
