2026-01-30 , Machankura

If you've ever felt powerless watching your savings erode, your voice silenced and your privacy infringed, this session shows you there's an exit - and how to take it.


Anita's talk explores how centralized institutions increasingly fail ordinary people through inflation, surveillance, and censorship. Opting out isn't just philosophical resistance - it's a technical reality. From sovereign money to censorship-resistant communication and privacy-preserving AI, learn how these tools restore individual agency in an age of institutional decline.

Anita is a Change Maker and Freedom Tech advocate, renowned Bitcoin educator, author, founder of the online academy Crack the Orange as well as founder of Bitcoin for Fairness, a non-profit initiative that has a strong focus on Bitcoin adoption in the Global South through education, knowledge sharing and capacity building on the ground.

Anita's focus is on promoting Freedom Tech like Bitcoin and Nostr, which empower individuals and the civil society in achieving financial freedom, digital privacy, self-sovereignty and protection from governmental and corporate surveillance.
