Privacy is no longer a niche topic. It’s becoming essential for individuals, communities, and the future of open technologies like Bitcoin. This panel explores why privacy is rising as a global priority, and why Bitcoin cannot fulfill its potential without it.
We’ll look at the real risks of a world without privacy, from financial surveillance to targeted harm, and highlight powerful use cases where privacy protections make a meaningful difference in people’s lives.
We’ll also address the big question: Is achieving privacy too difficult today? What can be done to access it in a simple way?
