Samson shares his background in game development and his transition to focusing on Bitcoin adoption at the nation-state level. He explains JAN3's mission to help countries utilize wasted energy resources for Bitcoin mining and the broader strategies for adopting Bitcoin as legal tender, mining, or as a reserve asset. The conversation delves into the geopolitical implications of Bitcoin, China's potential strategy, and the importance of early adoption. The discussion also touches on U.S. regulatory attitudes towards Bitcoin and its potential future role in the economy, leading to the idea of 'hyper Bitcoinization.'
