In this episode, I had the pleasure of speaking with Dave Bradley, co-founder of Bull Bitcoin, who is known as the strongest and best-looking Bitcoin entrepreneur in Canada. We dive into a variety of topics, starting with Dave's love for Alberta beef, particularly the Brant Lake Wagyu, a cross between Japanese Wagyu and Alberta Black Angus. Dave shares his journey into Bitcoin, starting in 2010, and how he co-founded Bull Bitcoin with Francis Pouliot in 2018. We discuss the importance of self-custody in Bitcoin and the potential for new models of custody that maintain legal ownership for users. Dave also shares insights into the Bitcoin Rodeo conference, which focuses on Bitcoin's real-world applications and includes a mix of comedy and serious discussions. We touch on the broader implications of Bitcoin on government and society, exploring the potential for a future with more decentralized governance and the challenges of transitioning to a Bitcoin standard. Throughout the conversation, we reflect on the current state of the world, the role of Bitcoin in addressing systemic issues, and the importance of security and privacy in the digital age.https://x.com/BitcoinBrainshttps://bitcoinbrains.com/Co-Founderhttps://x.com/BullBitcoin_https://www.bullbitcoin.com/Boardhttps://x.com/TheBitcoinWellhttps://bitcoinwell.com/https://x.com/TheBitcoinRodeohttps://bitcoinrodeo.com/Resources discussed in this episode include:EasyDNSThe Sovereign Individualhttps://www.brantlakewagyu.ca/ LISTEN TO EPISODE HERE https://serve.podhome.fm/episodepage/djvalerieblove/206(00:00:36) Introduction to Dave Bradley(00:01:25) The Meat Enthusiast(00:05:03) Bitcoin Beginnings(00:06:32) Bitcoin Rodeo and Events(00:08:30) Recycling Realities(00:14:11) Plastic and Environmental Concerns(00:18:34) Bitcoin as a Solution(00:24:55) Bull Bitcoin's Origin(00:31:32) Custody and Security in Bitcoin(00:37:32) Bitcoin's Impact on Personal Finance(00:47:38) Government and Bitcoin(00:52:51) Future of Governance(01:05:30) Personal Responsibility and Healing(01:12:55) Economic Collapse and Bitcoin(01:20:33) Future of Currency(01:23:21) Bitcoin Rodeo Event Overview☮️ Support the Bitcoin for PEACE Projecthttps://geyser.fund/project/bitcoinforpeace Grab the 7 Days of LOVE Music Experiment HERE! https://www.djvalerieblove.com/7-days-of-love❤️  SUBSCRIBE to Manifest with LOVE Newsletterhttps://djvalerieblove.com/subscribe  SUPPORT THE SHOW WITH TIPS - Thank You! https://getalby.com/p/djvalerie   SUBSCRIBE TO THE PODCASTYOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/@djvaleriebloveRUMBLE: https://rumble.com/c/c-6698813WEBSITE: https://djvalerieblove.com/podcastFOUNTAIN.FM: https://fountain.fm/show/761jhxFiibErm7eZZdltAPPLE: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/dj-valerie-b-love-podcast/id1441540841SPOTIFY: https://open.spotify.com/show/6kZfzFZ3wKmWiljDajrJZ5?si=a9433473b06f464bRSS: https://serve.podhome.fm/rss/4996bcea-e098-5a89-ac63-af7a3df7cb5d  FOLLOW DJ Valerie X: https://x.com/djvaleriebloveNOSTR: https://primal.net/djvaleriebloveSUBSTACK: https://djvalerieblove.substack.com/FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/djValerieBLoveINSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/djvalerieblove/LINKEDIN: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dj-valerie-b-love/  DJ VALERIE’S FAVORITE TOOLS START9 - 5% OFF - Run a Node https://store.start9.com/discount/LOVEBITCOIN MENTOR - FREE consult for self-custody https://bitcoinmentor.io/aff/love/  AUDIBLE - Get 2 FREE Audiobooks https://www.audibletrial.com/bitcoinSHAMORY - Have Fun Learn Bitcoin 10% Discount  shamory.com/loveSATSBACK - Get Bitcoin rewards when you shop https://satsback.com/register/Ezv2VLwKXgLd8X4Z DJ VALERIE’S FAVORITE EVENTShttps://www.adoptingbitcoin.org/https://btcplusplus.dev/https://baltichoneybadger.com/https://bitblockboom.com/https://unconfiscatable.com/https://bitcoinunconference.com/https://afrobitcoin.org/https://oslofreedomforum.com/https://denver.space/  BUY, TRADE, STORE, MINE BITCOINHODL HODL no KYC https://hodlhodl.com/join/NMKLQ RIVER FINANCIAL Buy Bitcoin Safely -Get Up to $100 in FREE Bitcoin https://partner.river.com/LOVE TREZOR - Get 10% OFF Trezor 5.0 and Onboarding Call https://affil.trezor.io/SHcTCOLDCARD Discount 5%- Promo Code “PEACE”  store.coinkite.com/promo/PEACESAZ MINING - Get $50 OFF your Bitcoin Mining Order https://app.sazmining.com/purchase?ref=DJVALALTAIR TECH - Get 1% OFF - Code "LOVE" - Mine Bitcoin and HEAT your home https://altairtech.io/  DJ VALERIE'S FAVORITE IDEASWHAT IS VALUE FOR VALUE? - ADAM CURRY https://value4value.info/about/
