All Things Possible With Bethany Hamilton13 Helmi

The Changing Digital World of Decentralized Social Media and Cryptocurrency | with Paul Keating | Ep. 56

In this episode, Bethany and Adam sit down with Paul Keating to talk about the broken state of social media and what a better future could look like. They get into how platforms like Instagram and Facebook profit off your attention through ads and addictive algorithms, why censorship on legacy platforms is a real problem (including what happened to Dr. Saladino during COVID), and how Primal - a social media app built on the open-source Nostr protocol - is trying to fix all of that by giving users full control over their feeds, no advertising model, and the ability to send real Bitcoin (called Zaps) directly to creators. The conversation naturally flows into Bitcoin itself - why it matters, how it differs from crypto, what sound money means, the debasement of the dollar, Bitcoin's humanitarian potential for the unbanked, and why Paul lives entirely on a Bitcoin standard in Costa Rica. They wrap up by recommending the book Thank God for Bitcoin and teasing a future deep-dive Bitcoin episode. Guest Bio: Paul Keating is a builder at Primal, a social media app built on the decentralized Nostr protocol that lets users control their own feeds, own their data, and send Bitcoin directly to creators. A passionate Bitcoiner who lives fully on a Bitcoin standard in Costa Rica, Paul is also behind the upcoming documentary Hummingbird: The Bitcoin Jungle Story.
