The how and - importantly - why of living on a Bitcoin standard


Ben de Waal has been living on a Bitcoin standard since 2017. What does that mean, how does he do it, and perhaps most importantly, why does he do it?

Discovered Bitcoin in 2010. "Bitcoiner" since around 2013. Exclusively working in the Bitcoin space since 2018. With a background ranging through software development, neuroscience, linguistics, and private investigations, Ben brings with him a wealth of experience from different areas of Bitcoin from the philosophical to the technical. For the last few years, he's been focused primarily on real world Bitcoin adoption and what that means for different people in all walks of life, cultures, and backgrounds.
