This episode of the #citizenweb3 podcast features Pavel from Zano Ravaga

Pavel Ravaga embraces the cypherpunk ethos, advocating for privacy blockchains while critiquing government oversight, meme coin speculation, and the permanence of transaction histories. He sees crypto’s potential for financial freedom but acknowledges that mainstream users prioritize convenience over privacy.
