The year is 2140, and the last new bitcoin has just been mined.
Humanity now lives entirely within the contours of digital scarcity. What began as an experiment on a mailing list has become the foundation of civilization.
But, in a world transformed by Bitcoin, what truly changes, and what remains eternal?
This is the horizon
@Bitstein n, president of the
@Satoshi Nakamoto Institute and whose writings have carved out the cultural and intellectual bedrock of Bitcoin’s philosophy, invites us to examine.
Across from him sits
@Adam Back s, CEO of
@Blockstream , whose invention of Hashcash informed Bitcoin itself. Back has spent decades building infrastructure to advance the cypherpunk vision.
Together, they will explore the possibilities of Bitcoin’s endgame: a protocol fixed in code, yet endlessly evolving in human meaning. What does a civilization look like when trust is no longer enforced by institutions, but by mathematics? Which traditions will Bitcoin render obsolete, and which timeless truths will it preserve?
Alan Watts once remarked, “the only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.”
This fireside chat is that invitation. A chance to step into the dance of time, scarcity, and freedom, guided by two of Bitcoin’s most enduring voices.
