Whitney is joined by Bitcoin Magazine’s Mark Goodwin to discuss how bitcoin is being used by some to dollarize the world and entrench the very same financial power structures, particularly in the developing world, that bitcoin was ostensibly created to challenge. Also discussed are suspect stablecoins and the roles of some in crypto in building out the global digital surveillance panopticon and testing those technologies on vulnerable populationrfis.
