Bitcoin Video Magazine Issue #2 has been released!

Producer Tim Tayshun has been putting hisyears of experience and hard work into this effort, part of the mission to orange pill the world and educate fellow plebs.

Like a crazy fool, he bought his first bit of bitcoin on April Fool's Day of 2013, attended his first meetup a year later, and studied everything available about Bitcoin at the time.

He started putting out the first Bitcoin ATMS in California and attended his first Bitcoin conference, The North American Bitcoin Conference in Miami, in January 2015.

Mat & Bobbie Webb are Two Kind Minds, a blue-collar couple from Western Australia with zero patience for the bullshit anymore. They woke up to the game being played, realized that the system wasn't built for our freedom, so they decided to build their own game. Their YouTube channel is about freedom in all its forms: sound money, self-custody Bitcoin, inner work, family, and blue collar truth.

They are unscripted, unpolished, and real, having realized that freedom isn't bought, it's built - using the framework of your mind, your money, your time, and your location.

Ariel Birdie has long been intrigued by civilization. She replicates what she finds to be the most graphically interesting artistic recordings, depictions of mythology and language, and what lost worlds have been left behind to us. She did not go to art school… rather she studied anthropology in pursuit of these interests.

She began making art a serious pursuit later in life, finding confidence and motivation to put in the time required. For her, making art becomes meditation; a way to connect with nature, life force and the grounding energy we become distracted from in our modernity.
