it's not of regulation. and so you end up with a casino so you have people plugged into their electronic devices playing virtual casinos all day being obedient not questioning authority and then like any casino they'll win an occasional virtual dona crumb and little fill their heart with joy and they'll think about having you know some kind of ritualistic ceremony to celebrate their great fortune in the obedience coin world i think you have to obey the time go to break here we think of obedience we've got to take a break when we come back the legendary amir talk don't go away. in the last days of the soviet union people were full of hope and anticipation of the upcoming changes underground music by young musicians of the time captured the

mood perfectly what was it like to live and make music in that atmosphere. how can other. love. not out of the not of the money that that exhibit. this was a good time to. try to move. them one thing that was not why not. why it turning the whole people we believe to be here. but over. because i don't want them up

aside john hardy of the moment out of motherhood a little accuser is a lot a lot of them and i'm a little like a mad build a little out of the pimp i don't want to put out a love to my worst party without all the other bloodletting. the corruption is everywhere in our gov in our society we still have a high rate of unemployment and we still have a lot of bitterness you know especially in the hinterlands so i would say that our success story is a hoss exist or it wants to be in because we have achieved the political game the political agenda but we didn't do that we didn't succeed in which even if the economy goes.

welcome back to the kaiser report i'm max keyser time now to go to a mere talking a bit coy legend i may welcome back to the kaiser report thank you for having me you know you were one of the very first people we met that was back in two thousand and eleven and you were already a veteran and bitcoin you started when it was in the pennies just recap briefly at that period you got involved in what year what time and what was happening that was there was a time. because you just saw it. and we were in this for the long day we thought that we saw the big. huge potential inside of it and we're willing to devote ourselves to the op ok you say we were in it for the long game when you say we era for into a pretty small group of folks like

a handful of people recruiting you guys including us you're the first to report on bitcoin yes because of the facts to guys like you who we found to be a newsworthy and then when we talk to you we found that there is tremendous intellectual depth to what's happening there with big going and so one of my questions i want to ask you is that in the beginning back in the two thousand and nine ten eleven period it was very difficult to describe what it client is and here we are twenty eighteen and i think it's safe to say that it's still very difficult to describe what bitcoin is i hear people on c n b c and other mainstream outlets talk about bitcoin they don't really seem to understand it any better than people are trying to understand it back and twenty eleven what do you think of that statement yet because it is nor some investment scheme it's not a more convenient way to trade money online because when as he said on the original website is the pits appear form of money cannot be controlled by governments and

central banks is really important don't. so that with what big queen can truly a chief of humanity which is liberation from this financial system in slave i should becomes realized. what do you think about this lambo crowd i mean i go to north america because in conference for a couple years down the road to thousands of participants in the early meet ups or maybe five or six year you're in the first big conference ever of prague there were a couple you know developers there maybe twenty or thirty people or a hundred people total but now you've got this idea that it's led by everybody and is seems like that's far removed from the original vision they talked about the suppose you white paper there but they also mention it's a get rich quick scheme summerset it's a get rich quick scheme disguised really to get people to accept money that it isn't controlled by third parties that is a controlled by governments as kind of like seduce people into accepting something

that's highly subversive you don't get me wrong it's great that we have some much capital in this community and in all of the cryptocurrency communities of people really putting into a lot of projects to think about how can we not just construct financial systems but new form of law governance called me all of the social life and thus fantastic because as technologists we've been trying with putting our energies into these things for literally the last two hundred years and for the first time in a period we have access to huge amounts of cup is to realize all visions the same time you have to realize it is not just capital that will automatically create value that is a core of people not core of people is driven through a vision for an idea of the wild did ok that's interesting idea that capital is not necessarily going to create the value yeah that's a very interesting statement so the value is resides somewhere else in the network

it's in this rabbit hole we call it coin that people can get lost in very quickly and the value proposition is not obvious and so then we come to the idea of why do. these measure because i'm is like nouriel roubini or paul krugman at the new york times why they get it so wrong wired what are they missing they they turn to just totally misunderstand is happening here where you think what we're experiencing now in the west also with the rise of right wing nationalist groups and religious fundamentalists is a clash of two fundamental worldview is that there is like an old viewpoint of the world we just sees the world in terms of like what we can see what we can touch most and it's something fundamentally see that the all of the questions all of the life problems of humanity can be reduced to economic questions but what we're

experiencing in the west is something deeper is is is like a loss of humanity is a lot of meaning and purpose that people work their entire lives jobs that they know is completely meaningless and has no value whatsoever for money which is literally printed by a central bank and there is now a growing desire that people want to. they want to have lives not just they don't just want to be. objects of mechanical parts in a giant a process is managed by an elite this is trying to keep the capital flowing to keep the system stable that the people are seeing more and more that there's a there's not a lack of a spray sharon bishan and this is and what bitcoin represent is is a way for us to break free of this system of financial or economic inscription of a vast labor force of of people it seems that economics evolved over the past

hundred years sense or are so the industrial revolution which brought in an era of specialization and specialization to degree where you have people really and slow. factories in china assembling products like i phones and is mind numbingly repetitious and so the rise of technology is like search engines which for people the ability to cope completely forget what's in their heads they have they don't need a brain essentially because it's being outsourced to a third party this platform called a search engine but it seems like bricklayers reversing that trend it's bringing back a consciousness fusion in that all of our thoughts are being timestamp every ten minutes to validate this value proposition and i wanted to ask if you think that the current technology which is processing forty quintillion

transactions a second that's forty thousand quadrillion transactions a second is the leading to something that maybe we haven't even imagined to get some kind of consciousness fusion on the horizon i don't mean to get too esoteric air but we have had many conversations about this technology and i haven't talked to you in a while and had any new thoughts along these lines the i think if in technology it doesn't go in a straight line you can go in many different directions the danger is is the technology is now who are building these technologies they they do side of light what is the end goal where are we heading towards and like so many of the technology movements before them by development of the computer is development of insulin that development of many different technologies the end up just to. become taken over for example if we don't as technology is now

come together to organize to formulate like a sense of direction it could very well be some big bank or big corporation. this block chain technology and and really make it something this is made. stream and we lose the opportunity that we had to really put some thinking place that was able to change the society around us is to think there's an attack vectors open from dystopian elements big banks i don't think it's a technical problem is this a social problem because certainly within the community there's so much splintering going on would you point kassian all these other all kinds of all that focus was attention more just on bitcoin and for example second layer development with lightning networks how do you think lighting networks how do you how would you see that going just this last week i was in a really big technology conference in berlin and the whole thing whole thing just felt really fake and it was this is this incredible to see all these people coming

and talking about block chain and technology and it was like a. form of like mass brainwashing really but then i went also that same week to a lightning of that it was a much smaller event like less than a hundred people or bruce it was inspiring years so it was probably one of the best events i went through this year everybody was there was a lot of energy a lot of sense of drive to think ok how can we make this thing and that's the point i'm trying to get is that the technology half of potential inside of it is there waiting for us to take it to use it on the world to change the world in some way we have to be conscious of that and it is not something is going to happen automatically and this is what big one is experiencing now is this is this kind of . is this kind of sense of we don't need to do anything we just need to tweak the technology we just need to fix a few bucks here and there and it's eventually just going to spread like wildfire

and say noise not going to be like that we need to go to africa we need to go to asia we need to go to latin america we need to underlies different regions geopolitically we need to build the tools we need to organize and we need to spread these technologies and that's going to it's going to take a huge radical transformation inside of a community ok so imagine politics their year because i travel so i've taken a deep into politics you want after syria to join. what is it. ridge of for a job or economic advisor and enter a fighting isis now we've got about a minute i have left can't you can't just give us an update on what or how that all happened if there is a group of guerrillas now in the middle east they crossed over into syria and so it's organized the local population and this is

a force that really has the potential to transform the entire makeup of the middle east and is one biggest opportunities the have had in the. one hundred years and now in rich off they started a technology program and every interesting crypto currencies and also the tools for digital governance and economic resource management so that's a place of a huge amount of potential but there's a lot of what needs to be done to buy she built the technologies to enable big point another crypto currency to scale to a national level right so here you are taking this crypto. new top in the one could call it and introducing it in one of the most politically hot spots in the world and what how was the reaction locally a lot of the piece yeah in ridge offer have full support of the administration i'm of the people understand crypto currencies and the potential of it is just the big

point and all these technologies we're building they're not ready yet to serve on a national scale all of the people developing these products are not developing different visuals there's a huge amount of work that needs to be done in tons of telecommunications in terms of infrastructure. different software technologies hardware is a huge body of development the need to be done now you know around the world governments deal with the legacy u.s. dollar imperialism the us empire is based on the dollar based on debt and one way to deal dollar rise is to move it out of the dollar and into because it but that's a message that most governments are not able to intellectually leap in that direction how it's wave observed as well in other they recognize cryptocurrency is a very important thought for their economic political program which is about decentralized ation of the economy if i just quickly explain they used to be

a group that was fighting for independence but then as kurds they realized they couldn't become independent because they were split over forty from. states said they changed their program actually organizing the civil society to become so create their own self course. misadministration as a power structure outside of the state so things tools like digital tools allow them to govern to. manage their economy without needing a state on a local level in a decentralized way is something that is in line with their political program and they recognize the potential power there is a matter of survival as well all right i mean you're talking thanks so much for being on the kaiser report thank you well that's going to do it for this edition of the kaiser report with me max kaiser and stacey i would like to thank our guest i mean they're tacky if you want to reach us on twitter it's kaiser report until next time.

for a world cup twenty eight team coverage and we've signed one of the greatest goalkeepers of alternative but there was one more question and by the way who's going to be our coach. guys i know you are nervous is a huge tournaments and a huge amount of pressure you have to go meet the center of the beach but how would you go all the great the great if you are the rock at the back nobody gets past you we need you to get down there we left go. alone. and i'm really happy to join the fall of two thousand and three in the world cup in russia meet the special one there was also appreciate me to just read the review p.r.t. teams latest edition to make up as we go i need to look at. ministries

police forces and city administrations of many countries depend on one corporation . that's why mike was hoping when the boy got thrown from the eyes of god i'm stumped on this the dumbest of the guns not the woods as if he did the dog on him to see if that must also apply been proprietary software you don't know the source code isn't that a such a security risk when you have a black box operating in the public eye to microsoft dependency puts governments under a cyber threat and not only that some seem to think put us in more of. the softness of the offensive is a selling point one. thing to almost. all . of the that's being cynical this is the i still post i didn't miss the old vision stopping there was a student who was a front is up in his cards on the phone.

in a world of big partisan group lot and conspiracy it's time to wake up to dig deeper to hit the stories that made stream media refuses to tell more than ever we need to be smarter we need to stop slamming the door on the shouting past each other it's taught for critical thinking it's time to fight for the middle for the truth the time is now for washing clothes for watching the hawks.

croatia edges host russia four three in a thrilling penalty shootout to set up a world cup semifinal against england. while england beat sweden two nil in normal time to reach the last four for the first time in twenty eight years. this is art international coming to live from the russian capital with me jacqueline welcome to the program after two more nail biting matches we now know

all four semifinalists at the two thousand and eighteen world cup and with all the day's action let's cross to neil harvey and peter schmeichel in sochi to kick start our special football coverage. let me just say about courage and i've said this right from the beginning this is a proper focus is this got really good players in every position becomes play is who. should be and so against and so on in the group for making play if they have three game six in place and make it through through that players like suited who just before the end of buying say minutes really look in some discomfort susan of tennis hamstring when he carried on and played thirty minutes with what we don't

know what i'm hearing him thirty minutes late absolutely fantastic he makes three really big saves this shitty shift really ran out of legs the game continued but really the principle is with the finish that is quite remarkable is the second spectacular goal is fulfill the tournament well outside the area killed it shaped it into the top corner of the keep but one of the revocation it seems that chad mentioned and you saw it and now and again this could be persistent if you think yes the now you have the upper hand but then you still got an hour to play it is and i keep saying the part of the world cup the other team has played probably some of the best support in the tournament to get to the quarter final she know they've got something to bring to the game so you have to concentrate they have to fall but you have to be on top of everything and once you've gone up in russia it simply wasn't untroubled by anything in the thirty ninth minute that it was in the

business of films when you would so hard to get a spectacular goal to lead to give it away to be successful defending it because it's a lack of concentration and you don't leave. someone like comrie. with five men five rushing fighters around in the park to go meet him on my soul for died that was obviously something that. you know it was not a great moment for russia. and again i think on the third goal that video scored the both of the goals of my soft goals set is to you you kept saying no no no this start over this is not over and i kept saying because he just can see russia come back in this but that fight a spear it's five minutes to go freaking descents out the area alan's are going to substitute the film on it was personally placed freek'n another three hadn't been on the spot top breaking about the shoot out for none does a fantastic game feed the fullback three had to put it away said the home crowd and

perhaps may consider its scenes of ace this a it was such a thrilling phenomenally circus that i'm. sure it's this which i think you have everything out of everything to. think they've created a couple of new world cup stuff people know about the russian team now i think that journey individual journey ends in this world cup from maybe we go two years since a. stop in the earth. i haven't played any competitive matches for two years which is difficult really really difficult because competitive matches and friendly matches two different things and the way they picked it up the the first game it was just. it was just an incredible journey to to follow and they've got to say everything to be counted and we now have names like cherice if. then scarce it

means it's going to be really interesting to see what's going to happen over the next you know we can sue because he's hot property this is a guy. who can run a plane and all of these things you expect from a player but he can still follow scalia fundus my probably my favorite player in this shit for the. super and we haven't even mentioned super something honestly distorting strike the final game scored on this very very first charge in saudi arabia and just kept going when you have this big. guy really big guy in terms of you know how to play well for the players are these technical very good. he's physically very good i didn't see him as tired today but i think it's what managers do they have planned this up so you just want me to go off and i think in many ways his years of would regret taking off because he would have been gold in that except

for the half an hour but he's another one who has just shown himself to the world that's bringing a mound he maybe didn't take offense in this looks like college field on to film it was. the stadium watching not much worse than he was just going to one and then you faced their entry and i can tell that you've been on the same emotional journey so we've been on to everybody who's watching this game is it the no way shape or form was he going to be in the midst of the front of the road coast of i'd like. to say that the stuff was set in russia on a mountain to climb and they were on top right minutes when they go about incredible i mean go and i was at least making the getting the full and the atmosphere in that he put it in fight like what's going on our shots and take on the thing i loved about it summed up for me when i was running back here the russian found saying where are you what a beautiful game and it was that's exactly what it was they went out in style right

from the right from the start the crowd behind them and even when great you were on top with a large chunks i got myself and the crowd whistling there doing that and then right at the end. they were still working with a man and even when life and i missed all that they were still trying to. balance watching it was a pretty face that was filling and give us a feel for what it was like to be in. has been an incredible evening full of action and drama it's over for russia but the world cup is much bigger than that and it continues fourteenth to my let's see here you say it is an awful lot of russian fans. thank you. yeah we actually lost a lot of those forces who were here you . know we had

a crowd of about three hundred behind us who were feeling the emotions everybody else was in this crowd of three hundred forty million plus people all of the emotional roller coaster the gold why mario fernandez just pure joy and then just the heartbreak of parents you know yeah he wrote suits of it and just a few moments alone perhaps not a villain i mean fernandez you know he's obviously it was really a most impressive players are yeah. russia during the tournament which these brazilian he is a citizen of russia but he's in these repressed during the course of the tournament so it's extra heartbreaking that he missed the point yeah it is yeah and also from a small of you know he's been looked at as one of the leaders of the team is the leader across the dollar he plays. believe he's the caps and. he's filed for us this is this sort of. thing that. wasn't so much. like his style you don't. punish

my very sagely concedes i go if they're running the crowd. i just go back to the one i can feel my skin his hands he pushed around. the post. over. the. last seen on might have been some confidence that we won the penalty shootout and we can go on with this one but i just think it was tired legs you know it was all that penalty by mario fernandez and how much energy expended going up and down the. right side scoring the goal the emotional energy that would have to tell you it's. my thing we've seen every team that's come out of the tournament you know the teams that whenever the favorites there was the underdogs were talking you know the morocco's etc they've come out the defeats and they've said in their post much comments from all the supporters they've said well that's what we're going on what we're so proud

of our team of so proud of the energy they've shown the commitment the bravery we can't fault them for that and i feel that for russia as a team that gets a lot of stick here you know if you do follow the national team football people on overly positive about the russian team there's always a bit of an error an era. of negativity you know they're over paid. they're not good enough who they think they are that's all changed within just a couple of weeks a few matches they've gone all out and that. they held out in the past against spain or they want to penalty shoot out they came out on the field the bottom saying we play for you we've been for you the fans the fans love the appreciates you know that's been shown in the energy in the comment but they've shown to the team much easier to train coach was in the sochi fan zone for australia in the game if it wasn't for that miss by mario fernandez and possibly in russia were a bit more lucky this place would have been full of.
