Bitcoin Prophecy: What Argentina Can Teach You About Your Money
684 John Wesley Dobbs Ave NE suite a1, Atlanta, GA, USJoin us for a conversation with Ariel Aguilar, author of Bitcoin Prophecy: What Argentina Can Teach You About Your Money, who draws on lived experience of one of the world's highest inflation rates—devaluations, deposit confiscations, and exchange controls—to argue for Bitcoin as a way out of broken monetary systems. A tireless evangelist, Ariel has driven two Bitcoin vans 🚌 (the "Bitcoinetas") across Argentina and 20 European countries, organizing meetups and conferences over 60,000+ miles—two laps around the Earth. We'll dig into Argentina's century-long rise and fall, the libertarian turn it sparked, and whether a Bitcoin-driven "Renaissance 2.0" is genuinely on the horizon.
