Join the next NWA Bitcoin for a concise, no‑fluff discussion on the hidden risks of KYC and why protecting your financial privacy is essential for a free society.
In an age where every transaction can be traced, mandated Know‑Your‑Customer (KYC) rules turn a simple payment into a data‑harvesting operation. By forcing users to hand over personal identification, KYC creates a single point of failure that governments, corporations, and malicious actors can exploit—enabling mass surveillance, financial censorship, identity theft, and the erosion of the very financial sovereignty that Bitcoin promises.
We’ll then dive into RoboSats, the open‑source, peer‑to‑peer Bitcoin exchange built on the Lightning Network. RoboSats lets you trade BTC without any KYC, custodial risk, or centralized control: orders are matched automatically, funds never leave your wallet, and the protocol’s cryptographic guarantees keep your identity and trade details private.
Come learn how a handful of simple tools can preserve your anonymity, protect your assets from arbitrary seizure, and keep the Bitcoin ecosystem truly decentralized. Whether you’re a seasoned hodler or just curious about privacy‑first finance, this meetup will give you practical knowledge and a live demo of RoboSats in action.
Respect the Right to Privacy: No photos unless everyone agrees, and there aren’t any other folks in the background.
