"Bitcoin shouldn't operate like fiat. I see Bitcoin as a tool for freedom." - Anna Chekhovich
My guest today is Anna Chekhovich. Anna is the Director of Finance at the Anti-Corruption Foundation, a nonprofit founded in 2011 by Russian opposition leader Alexei Nevalny seeking to educate and fight corruption and authoritarianism in Russia and beyond. She also teaches Bitcoin and financial freedom with the Human Rights Foundation.
In this episode we discuss how Bitcoin empowers activists and freedom fighters worldwide. Anna shares her experience using Bitcoin to support human rights causes, highlighting its importance for financial privacy and circumventing government oppression. The conversation explores the challenges faced by organizations like hers and the crucial role of privacy tools in the fight for democracy and against authoritarians.
Please support the work of the Anna and the Anti-Corruption Foundation today. Anna has stated that paying with Bitcoin, using the āgenerate addressā option is preferred for privacy. You can donate here.
