My guest today is Aleks Svetski, an entrepreneur, co-author of the best selling book, the “UnCommunist Manifesto” and the upcoming "Bushido of Bitcoin” book, as well as the founder of Satlantis - a travel & community social network built on Nostr. In 2018, he founded the #1 Collectible-Publication called “the bitcoin times”, and the world’s first Bitcoin-only savings app: Amber. Svetski is also building open source Bitcoin & AI tools with the Spirit of Satoshi project.

This episode covers Svetski’s background, his journey into Bitcoin, his views on authoritarianism and totalitarianism, and the virtues that are important for a thriving society. Svetski breaks the status quo, and believes in authoritative hierarchies and strong leadership, while criticizing the flattening of society and equality. He argues that Bitcoin will bring back feudalism and that elitism is necessary for a functioning society. The conversation explores individual empowerment, the limitations of the masses and the importance of beauty. Svetski critiques the hype around AI, highlighting its limitations and the potential dangers of regulation. We conclude with the connection between beauty and the rejection of communism.
