It is in line with what the founding fathers fought for, the same sort of principles.
I have no doubt that if they were alive today, they would be Bitcoiners.
America is really the only place that Bitcoin has a true chance of success.
And it's because of the powerful constitutional protections that we have
and the ability of the sovereignty of individual states to counteract a rogue federal government.
And using those powers to balance against one another,
we feel like there's a very, very powerful apparatus to be able to resist state overreach.
Show notes & resources
On this episode of THE Bitcoin Podcast , Erik Cason and Jesse Posner, founders of Vora , join Walker to discuss Bitcoin self-sovereignty, privacy, and security in the age of hyperbitcoinization. They explore how Vora’s decentralized cryptographic key storage and advanced privacy tools—like zero-knowledge proofs and trusted execution environments—are designed to empower Bitcoiners with true custody, physical protection, and credible deterrence from $5 wrench attacks to 6102 events. The conversation ties American constitutional values and the castle doctrine to Bitcoin’s rise, critiques fiat systems and TradFi narratives, and envisions a future where Bitcoiners own their safety, privacy, and freedom in a post-fiat world.
