In this special episode of The Free Thought Project Podcast, Jason and Matt sit down with Aaron Day and Quinten van Welzen for a powerful and hopeful discussion about Zano, digital freedom, and the future of decentralized resistance.
This episode avoids the heavy tech jargon and instead explores the human philosophy and mission behind Zano — a cryptocurrency project that’s much more than just a coin. Quinten breaks down how Zano enables private transactions, confidential assets, community marketplaces, and even user-generated coins, making it a full privacy-respecting ecosystem built to empower individuals around the world.
We also dive into Zano’s deflationary economic model, contrasting it with the unchecked inflation and debt-fueled spending of centralized governments — particularly relevant as the U.S. ramps up military budgets and inches closer to CBDC-style control through stablecoins.
Aaron shares insight on the broader battle for financial freedom and privacy, including his advocacy for Roger Ver, who is facing politically motivated prosecution. We end the show with an important update on Roger’s case — and why a recent Department of Justice memo could mean it should be dropped altogether.
If you’re looking for real tools to opt out of the digital control grid — and some much-needed inspiration — this is an episode you don’t want to miss. (Length: 1:04:08) Little Free Thinkers: 'Know Your Rights' Children's book: https://littlefreethinkers.com/
