Ivan Makedonski discusses how digit addiction shapes our financial reality, comparing our relationship with digital numbers to substance abuse. He explains how digit lords—those who create money out of nothing—maintain control through our addiction to seeing numbers rise while purchasing power falls. Ivan shares his personal tragedy that led him to Bitcoin, and why measuring life in Bitcoin rather than fiat is crucial for breaking free. The conversation explores Lightning Network developments, Breeze wallet's innovations, and why experiencing Bitcoin is more powerful than theoretical arguments.
