Bitcoin for Political Dissidents in Myanmar with Win Ko Ko Aung
I talk with Win Ko Ko Aung, a refugee from Myanmar formerly known as Burma, Human Rights fellow at the Bitcoin policy institute, as well as associate at the Human Rights Foundation.
Win shares the story of the ongoing civil war in Myanmar under the control of the military junta and the crackdowns and human rights abuses that are taking place.
Win also talks about how Bitcoin helped him escape Myanmar, what it can mean for the people, as well as some of the real infrastructure and tech challenges people face trying to get their money out of the country.
