Tenang, tetap dibawa santai dan nggak bikin kening berkerut. 😄 Di sesi ini, kita bakal makin dalam memahami bagaimana Ekonomi Austria melihat dunia—mulai dari cara manusia mengambil keputusan, bagaimana nilai terbentuk, sampai kenapa pasar bisa bergerak seperti yang kita lihat sekarang. Kedengarannya teoritis, tapi sebenarnya dekat banget dengan kehidupan sehari-hari. 💭 Yang menarik, semakin kita masuk ke dalam, biasanya mulai terlihat benang merah antara konsep ekonomi ini dengan Bitcoin. Kenapa banyak Bitcoiner tertarik dengan Ekonomi Austria? Apa yang membuat keduanya terasa “nyambung”? Nah, di sini kita mulai pelan-pelan menyusunnya. ⚡ Nggak harus ikut dari Part 1 atau Part 2 untuk bisa gabung. Justru ini jadi kesempatan buat masuk di tengah dan mulai melihat gambaran besarnya. Diskusinya terbuka, jadi kamu bisa langsung tanya atau ikut berbagi perspektif juga. 🧩 Buat kamu yang penasaran ingin memahami Bitcoin dari sisi yang lebih “dalam”, bukan cuma teknologinya tapi juga cara berpikir di baliknya—meetup ini bakal jadi ruang yang pas. ✨ Seperti biasa, suasananya santai dan tanpa tekanan. Mau aktif diskusi atau sekadar menyimak juga sama-sama oke. Yang penting, kita sama-sama belajar dengan cara yang lebih ringan. 🤝 Yuk lanjutkan perjalanan belajar ini bareng komunitas. Siapa tahu, dari sesi ini kamu mulai melihat ekonomi dan Bitcoin dengan cara yang benar-benar baru. 🚀⚡ Sampai jumpa di meetup! ​ 📌 **Info Penting:** 🔸 *Gratis* (beli makan/minum sendiri) 🔸 No altcoin, no token, no bullshit 🔸 **100% Bitcoin.** 🔗 **Tentang Kami**🟠[Bitcoin Indonesia ](https://x.com/bitcoinindo21)adalah inisiatif nirlaba yang bertujuan untuk: 🕊️ Menyebarkan pemahaman soal **Bitcoin** sebagai alat pembebasan individu ⚖️ Mendorong **kedaulatan finansial** lewat edukasi netral dan jujur 📚 Menyediakan konten edukasi **open-source & gratis** untuk semua **📲 Telegram: [https://t.me/+OIIRyKQmvJY0MWFk](https://t.me/+OIIRyKQmvJY0MWFk)** **📸 Instagram: [https://instagram.com/bitcoinforindonesia](https://www.instagram.com/bitcoinforindonesia)** **🌐 Website: [https://bitcoinindonesia.xyz](https://bitcoinindonesia.xyz/)**

**The Behavior Gap: Where Products Win or Lose** Teams today have more data than ever, and yet many still struggle to understand why customers adopt, engage with, or abandon their products. Teams sprint, ship faster, and chase more signals… all while metrics stall and confidence drops. The missing piece isn’t more data. It’s often the behavioral insight between the metrics, explaining why the numbers move in the first place. Dashboards can tell you what customers did, but understanding why they did it (and how to influence what they do next) requires a deeper blend of insights. This session is about closing that gap. Drawing from real-world experience designing and scaling products as [ZoCo Design](https://zocodesign.com/)’s CEO, [Lacey](https://www.linkedin.com/in/laceypicazo/) will share how to cut through the noise and identify the insights that actually change behavior—moving people, and moving metrics. You’ll learn: * Why understanding customer behavior is a quant and qual challenge * How to spot the signals that actually predict behavior change * Where AI accelerates insight, and where it creates distraction * How to get meaningfully closer to customers, without adding more tools This talk reframes how to evaluate performance and identify what levers actually improve it, helping your team to make smarter bets with greater confidence. Every meaningful outcome is driven by behavior change. And when you know how to design for behavior, you stop guessing, and start building things that work. **About Our Speaker** [Lacey Picazo](https://www.linkedin.com/in/laceypicazo/) is the Founder and CEO of ZoCo, a healthcare product studio that turns complex, high-stakes ideas into products that drive real-world adoption. She partners with healthcare organizations to uncover critical care delivery insights, focus product strategy through behavior design, and build solutions that patients and providers actually use.
