## Resource

In this episode, I sit down with Robyn from the UK to break down how quickly cash disappeared, how card payments quietly captured merchants through fees and surveillance, and why Bitcoin is the escape route in the digital age. We talk about what it feels like to watch a cash economy vanish in real-time, why “convenience” always comes with a cost, and why Bitcoin isn’t just an investment but a freedom technology that lets normal people hold value without permission.
