The cypherpunks didn't stop at money. LoRa mesh networks are the same idea applied to communication — decentralized, permissionless, no kill switch. When governments shut down the internet or disasters knock out the infrastructure, mesh keeps working. This talk bridges what you already have in your pocket —Bluetooth via Bitchat— with long-range radio via MeshCore. Censorship-resistant communication. Infrastructure you own.

Discover the tools and mindsets needed to move your family from a fixed location to a global presence.

Your 101 guide on how to prep for times of uncertainty. Our panel discusses solutions for different risk factors affecting individuals and family life.

Juraj Bednár focuses on parallel society and freedom, while Jaroslav Lachký works on quantum biology, light and mitochondria. At first glance different topics, yet they lead to the same conclusion: we live in an era where we have a real opportunity to take full control of our lives and our health. Juraj will talk about money as energy — about proof of work, about why working in the "fiat mine" steals time and attention, and what a Bitcoin "orange summer" looks like in practice.

Jaroslav will explain why light is both a source of information and energy, and how light's "proof of work" can improve mitochondria, the body's energy levels, and one's focus.

Both speak about the same thing: power comes from within. Our decisions — about money, about light, about where and how we spend our time — determine the quality of our lives. For the first time in history we have the tools that make this genuinely possible, not merely theoretical.

Beyond the bubble of developed countries, how is Bitcoin actually used around the world? This panel will offer insights into real-world use cases from various corners of the globe, where Bitcoin solves specific problems: inflation, limited access to banking services, payment censorship, and remittances. We’ll hear about experiences from the field and the broader context of why Bitcoin makes the most sense in these particular places. A practical discussion about where Bitcoin is no longer an alternative, but a necessity.

What does it truly mean to live on a Bitcoin standard — without a bank, Visa or Mastercard? This panel brings authentic experiences from people who use Bitcoin every day: from income and payments to savings. Openly discussed: what works brilliantly today, where reality hits its limits, and what compromises must be made. No idealisation, no hype — just a raw look at life with Bitcoin in practice.
