Tell me about your vision.
Yeah, so I envision a free, more fair economy.
And I think both the projects I'm working on,
they help go to that.
So I think as a human collective,
I think of everything in terms of energy, frequency,
and vibration.
And I think as a collective, we're slowly raising.
And I think there are tools that we can use to get there.
So I envision a free, more fair economy that's
based on where value creation is incentivized versus value
extraction.
And once value creation is incentivized,
that's where people's energy is going.
More people are creating value for more other people.
And then at that point, that's when
people can leave the scarcity mindset
and then start operating from the mindset of abundance.
And when you're in that mindset of abundance,
that's where you can really help other people.
And then it just becomes a snowballing effect
where we create a much better society.
That's interesting.
Tell me more about that.
Yeah, so in terms of value creation and value,
value extraction versus value creation,
this is actually why I got into cryptocurrency.
This is what drew me to cryptocurrency.
So my overall goal was to live a nice, peaceful life.
I found that to be difficult to do
if I felt the money system was corrupt,
a.k.a. stealing from me, stealing from you every second
of every single day, funding god knows what.
So that's where I felt the money system was.
That led me to physical gold and physical silver
as a potential solution to that.
And then Bitcoin was just the next evolution of that.
So that's where that Bitcoin found me.
And ChopX, one of my companies, is a way
to onboard people into that ecosystem at scale.
So what I mean by value creation versus value extraction,
I think of money as neutral.
So I think of money as energy.
So I think if people make money in bad ways,
I think karma is a real thing.
It'll come back to bite you in the ass
all the time.
But you can make money in good ways
and add more value to people's lives.
I think that's good.
So right now, if I wanted to become as rich as possible
without producing any value for anyone else,
how would I do that?
I would place myself right next to the money printer,
extract as much money as I can from there,
steal from me, steal from you, steal from everyone,
to enrich myself.
And then I will give that money to my friends
in the form of government contracts, political deals,
and all that bad stuff.
So let's say I'm next to the money printer.
I have access to limited money.
I get a position in power because I have limited money.
I get two of my friends who are also corrupt.
Now the three of us are three corrupt people
in a position of power with access to limited money.
We're gonna beat the people, the good people,
who wanna do good because they don't have access
to the amount of money.
So that's how corruption spreads from the top.
So when I mean value creation,
I think cryptocurrency solves that
because in a Bitcoin world, or at least a gold world
for that matter, but Bitcoin is just a better version
of that, how would I get your,
let's say I want your Bitcoin and I do want your Bitcoin.
If I wanted to get your Bitcoin,
how would I get your Bitcoin?
The only way for me to get your Bitcoin
is for me to produce something of value for you
and then you voluntarily give that to me.
So in a value creation society,
imagine if everyone has that mindset of like,
well, I wanna become rich, how do I become rich?
The only thing I can do is create as much value
for as many people as possible.
I think that has very positive effects in our generation.
But if you think of generations on the line,
I think that's gonna be compounding effect.
And then AI plays in that as a tool
that people can leverage so they can better create companies
based on their skills.
Like for example, I could be a,
I'm Filipino, so I just say examples
against racism, but let's say 50 years ago,
I was born in the Filipino slums.
That's where I'm likely gonna die, that's usually my path.
But let's say with AI and cryptocurrency,
now I'm born in the Filipino slums,
I have this down-line, it's like e-commerce is my jam.
I wanna do e-commerce, how do I do this?
I use AI to create graphics, create a website,
create a copy, create a content flow,
and then now I can produce a company much faster
than I could earlier.
And earlier that would cost a bunch of money,
I'd have to hire people, I don't have that money.
I created my company, great.
I can now use cryptocurrency to access
a free global marketplace, great.
Those are two things.
And let's say that company fails.
Well, okay, it failed, so what?
I learned from something, at least I was able to do it,
and now my next attempt is usually better.
So me as a Filipino slum kid,
I could actually try stuff now
so it's a more even playing field.
And then I'm operating from a sense of authenticity,
which obviously is a good thing.
