BTCHEL is back in Helsinki this week and I’m speaking on two panels:

- Will Bitcoin break the EU?
- Who’s writing Europe’s Bitcoin policy?

We will be discussing capital controls, financial freedom, privacy, self-custody, MiCA and the digital euro.

We’ll also be considering what we actually want from policymakers when Bitcoin was designed to work without intermediaries.

Last year was excellent and I can’t wait to be back!

If you’re in Helsinki, come and say hello.

BTCHEL in Helsinki was the first major Bitcoin event in the Nordics.

Across the panels there were discussions on mining, decentralisation, regulation, energy, and the growing role of Nostr in building a censorship resistant future.

Moments like this show the growing global momentum for Bitcoin as money, a network, a technology and a movement.

Jeff Booth said the change that is happening now is so profound it can’t be measured in our current reality.

One of the closing remarks by Knut on the future of Bitcoin summed it up best:

“Let’s hope Bitcoin changes you more than you can change Bitcoin. Let’s hope that’s also true for politicians too.”

BTCHEL will be back next year and I highly recommend it. ⚡️

Special thanks to Luke, Knut and the whole team for making BTCHEL such a huge success.
