Jeff Booth wants you to move more of your time into Bitcoin

> Welcome to Slate Sunday, CryptoSlate’s weekly feature showcasing in-depth interviews, expert analysis, and thought-provoking op-eds that go beyond the headlines to explore the ideas and voices shaping the future of crypto.
>
> Jeff Booth has been warning the world about how technology and debt don’t mix for over a decade. The Vancouver-born entrepreneur and author of The Price of Tomorrow: Why Deflation is Key to an Abundant Future says the financial system we live under is one giant illusion. It’s a construct that prevents the natural process of progress and innovation from benefiting everyone equally.
>
> “The natural state of the free market is deflation,” Booth reminds me early in our conversation.
>
> “When we compete to provide value to other people, we’re forced to keep providing more for less. And if you use technology, you’d expect the prices to fall really fast. That can’t happen through a debt-based system; they’re opposite systems. A debt-based system must expand forever.”
>
> Booth, who led the tech company BuildDirect for nearly two decades and now runs venture firm Ego Death Capital, was named among Goldman Sachs’ 100 Most Intriguing Entrepreneurs.
>
> He has spent the past several years speaking and investing around one central idea: the future doesn’t have to be dystopian. But to make it hopeful, we must choose different incentives.

Censorship and Inclusion Part 1

> **Dr. Bradley Rettler explores how Bitcoin resists financial censorship in Part 1 of a two-part series on Bitcoin and financial freedom.**
>
> Censorship is usually thought of as the suppression of speech. A person is censored when they are unable to speak freely and say what they want to say. But more generally, a person can be said to be censored when they are unable to express their values. This could be oral speech, written speech, artistic expression, or financial expression. We express our values by what we exchange value for. When we donate, give, or purchase, we show what we value more than the money we’re giving away.
>
> Financial censorship comes in several forms. There’s censorship of particular transactions, as when a bank or credit card company denies a particular transaction. There’s censorship of types of transactions, as when a bank or credit card company doesn’t allow transactions involving particular products or types of products. There’s censorship of individuals, as when a bank or credit card company doesn’t let you pay someone, or doesn’t let a particular entity make payments. 
> 
> Censorship of particular transactions usually results as a matter of distrust or suspicion. A credit card transaction could be declined because it’s unusually large or in a place far from where the user lives. This can be inconvenient if you’re in a foreign country and needing to pay a taxi driver. But while the card belongs to you, the power to approve or decline the transaction resides entirely with the credit card company or bank.
