The Bitcoin Public Initiative is a direct democratic effort by Luzius Meisser and Yves Bennaïm for the Swiss National Bank (SNB) to include bitcoin in its reserves. Luzius is a board member of Bitcoin Suisse and Bitcoin Association of Switzerland as well as founder of Meisser Economics and Frankencoin. Yves is founder of 2B4CH, a think tank on bitcoin's impact on society, and part of the Swiss representation to ISO on standards for blockchain and DLT. Both guests lead The Bitcoin Public Initiative, embodying direct democracy in action and prompting discussion on the role of bitcoin as a global reserve asset, the actual energy consumption of bitcoin mining and a comparative look at monetary policy worldwide. This discussion was recorded before any details were released about the US Strategic Bitcoin Reserve and Digital Asset Stockpile. This is a uniquely relevant conversation in light of recent chatter about bitcoin as a reserve asset and not to be missed!
