Matyáš Kuchař is the co-founder of BTC Prague (Europe's largest Bitcoin-only conference) and he joins Natalie with a frank assessment of where Europe stands on Bitcoin: over-regulated, energy-stressed, and falling behind. But Czech Republic is a surprising bright spot, with a Bitcoin-friendly central bank governor, a thriving Bitcoin community, and a conference drawing 8,000 attendees and speakers like Michael Saylor, Jeff Booth, and Jack Cruz. We discuss: How MiCA regulation killed Bitcoin payments at over 1,000 restaurants and shops overnight The Czech National Bank governor who understands Bitcoin, and what that means for EuropeWhat makes BTC Prague different from other Bitcoin conferencesWhy a bear market is actually the best time to attend a Bitcoin conferenceGet your tickets to the conference using code HODL at www.btcprague.com Follow Matyáš Kuchar on X https://x.com/Matyas44Cook **This interview can be viewed with Czech language subtitles on YouTube and Rumble. ---- Order Natalie's new book "Bitcoin is For Everyone," a simple introduction to Bitcoin and what's broken in our current financial system: https://amzn.to/3WzFzfU --- Coin Stories is powered by Gemini.
