• Human connections – Honesty, Empathy, Love
• Self-sovereignty, Liberty – NAP, Voluntarism
• Spending time offline – Enjoying the analogue waves
• Building online – Crunching digital bits
• The future of society
• Posthumanism
• Everything that can be derived from the above two:
• Detaching from the legacy system to become free, borderless, and crypto-native
• Building a new societal blueprint
• Safe superintelligence
• Health, safe food, longevity, sports
• 22nd-century education
• Preparing for what’s to come in the next five years - and what’s to come after
• Got together with a dozen people to create a community/village of like-minded techno-optimists. The project failed, but I learned a lot about biointensive farming—and it’s also where I discovered Bitcoin (this was in 2010). Back then, we used Bitcoin as money to trade veggies, land, labor, etc. No one thought of it as “HODL never spend digital gold.”
• Bootstrapped Hungary’s crypto ecosystem—founded the first exchange/brokerage (since exited), launched ATMs (with a highly ranked central bank officer praising Bitcoin at the inaugural event😅), organized educational workshops, meetups, etc. Fun fact: We have the longest-running Bitcoin Meetup in the world!
• Erected the first Satoshi Statue in Budapest with four other friends, which became a pilgrimage site for crypto enthusiasts (and is now the default “Satoshi image” in the press).
• Built a small GPU rig to learn about mining—and it ended up mining Ethereum’s genesis block.
• Helped fund and bootstrap a pirate microschool/homeschooling club for my son 10 years ago because we couldn’t find any alternatives we were happy with. This later became a state-accredited decentralized network of 18 microschools with 800+ students in Hungary.
• Co-founded Reaction with Stanford Executive Program classmates—a VC fund focused on solving important problems.
• For the past 15 years, my focus has been on exiting the legacy system and helping others do the same
• Consulting, primarily helping legacy institutions onboard into crypto—setting up their entire Web3 financial stack (software, policies, training, etc.). I did a Web3 CFO course and pretend I am good at it. Why am I good at this? Because I learn from other’s people mistake who took my advice 😂
• Learning a lot about AI—both top-down (user perspective) and bottom-up (math and first principles).
