Pizza Day Prague 2023 | Vlad Costea - Breaking FUD

This year's BTCTKVR magazine is here to break the FUD, as it tackles 10 of the most popular misconceptions about Bitcoin.
On a personal level, it marks 10 years since I first read about Bitcoin, and explains how and why it took me 4 years to break the FUD.
At the technical level, it's a battle between man and AI: ChatGPT writes the FUD, and then the man uses his lesser time-efficient writing skills to manually debunk all the bad takes and unjustified fear-mongering.
And in the grand scheme of things, it's the bear market reading material that you should give to your parents and no-coiner friends in order to help them understand why Bitcoin is here to stay.
Vlad records the Bitcoin Takeover podcast, writes the open-source BTCTKVR magazine, eats, sleeps, dreams of Toyota Supras, and prays for girlfriends.

Paralelní Polis is a one-­of-­a-­kind nonprofit organization that brings together art, social sciences, and modern technologies. The ideas of liberty, independence innovative thinking, and the development of society are the main underlying foundations the whole project is built upon.
The project intends to remain state-free as it operates entirely without support from the government, and most of the funds come from voluntary contributions of our donors and partly from commercial activities such as running a unique co­working space and the world’s first bitcoin-­only cafe.
It was founded by members of a contemporary group Ztohoven, and Slovak and Czech hacker­spaces. Its main goal is to promote economic, social, and digital freedom. We try to be a vocal voice of freedom in order to shape the public discourse and ultimately work towards a freer future.
