Episode 014: Free Roger Ver – How You Can Help

They wanna give him one of nine First investor in the game, now they want to kill his flame. Hired lawyers did it right, still they want to pick a fight. Core devs changed the protocol. Government wants total control. Attorney, client, privileged, dead. Using compliance plans instead. First investor in the game, now they want to kill his flame. Hired lawyers did it right, still they want to pick a fight.

Core devs changed the protocol. Government wants total control. Small blocks kept us paralyzed Now they're coming for the king Using laws like puppets raised Spanish prison, McAfee died Making sure Veer stays inside They can raid the lawyers They can

seize the files But they can't stop crypto Running wild, running wild Brownstone dropping truth bombs daily

That's not justice. That's a warning. Free Roger Ver. From Silicon Valley to the Spanish shore Fighting for

freedom but they want something more Ten months in prison just for speaking his mind Now they're coming back trying to leave him behind One oh nine years for following The most corrupt case that you ever saw They can't silence the truth They can't change what's right Bitcoin Jesus showed us all

How to stand up and fight Free, free, free Roger Ver free free roger now hired the best lawyers did everything right still they raided offices in the dead of night used his own compliance as evidence of guilt now his freedom hangs Speaking truth to power comes with a price, but we won't let them sacrifice.

They can't silence the truth. They can't change what's right. Bitcoin Jesus showed us all how to stand up and fight. they come for all either stand together now or watch freedom fall they can't

silence the truth they Bye. Bye.

welcome back to the aaron day show uh today is december the fifth it's been a while since I've been back on hopefully we have all the audio issues figured out um and are ready to go this should be a very exciting and information-packed episode I think several weeks back I did one on free roger and the audio was completely garbled so we're going to uh completely reset And so much has happened since then. So this will be a much more informative episode in any event. And so I'm going to hop right in because there's quite a bit to go through. And I'm going to start with some of the housekeeping items. I did a ton of travel. My wife and I, I think, were everywhere.

I mean, in terms of all over the U.S. and then starting to branch out overseas last year. And so I'm going to tell you some of the events that we have coming up. This is only a partial list. And it does look like twenty twenty five is going to be about. taking this message international. The first couple of events that we have are actually in Miami. So we're going to be at the, we're all going to make it conference, which is the biggest blockchain event in America. So that's going to be in Miami, January the twenty second through the twenty fourth. And then right after that, we're going to be also in Miami at the Counterparty, which is the twenty fifth and the twenty sixth.

That's Tatiana Moroz. That's her event. That looks like it's going to be a great event. Two to three hundred people really focused on hands on applications for how to exit exit the state and build solutions that are that are independent of the behemoth. Then after that, right after that, we're going to Mexico for the People's Reset. This is also going to be a fantastic event. Probably going to do, in addition to a talk, a full workshop, which I am in the process of completely reworking the workshop. That's one of the things that I've been spending my time doing in the background. that basically what we're looking at in twenty twenty five is we want to be able to not only onboard people

to crypto gold and silver, but we want to be able to onboard merchants in the workshop so that they're actually able to take cryptocurrency in the workshop from people that have been newly introduced to using cryptocurrency for payments. And so I want to level up and move to this stage where people are actually conducting peer-to-peer commerce coming out of the event, because I think that will take everything to the next level. And then after that, I'm going to be going back to Mexico for Anarchapoco, which is going to be a great, great event. I'll be a keynote speaker there as well. Might also do a separate workshop breakout. And then we have events that are being scheduled for

Europe and all over the place. And I will be resuming our own freestanding workshops, although probably only going to do one of those per quarter. And then with the idea of moving towards having an online version so that we can reach more people. The in-person meetings are great because it provides an opportunity to get hands-on feedback, direct feedback from both consumers and merchants. which is critical. And then we're actually bringing our partners along. So the wallet providers, point of sales providers, so that they can actually see in real time how all this stuff works. So exciting things moving ahead. I want to show you three metrics. I'm calling this the final countdown.

But these are, to me, the most important three metrics right now. One is how many days do we have left until twenty thirty? So I want us to all focus on the fact that with this election, a lot of people are somehow all of a sudden feel that the whole problem with government is that we just didn't have our people in there, which I want to remind people that what we're actually fighting against is a one world global technocracy. That has not changed just because of the election. So to me, what's important is that we actually analyze legislation and analyze political activity in all various countries. in terms of what it is doing in terms of advancing or retreating with respect to

global government. And by the way, I will tell you, I don't see any reason to be overly optimistic about the fact that There's anything from a policy perspective that is going to unwind the move towards a single digital currency with a social credit system. So we only have eighteen hundred and fifty three days until twenty thirty. The other metric is how many days has since Roger Ver was arrested in Spain. I should say it's it's been two hundred and twenty two days. He's been there for. Over seven months. And I want to remind everybody that John McAfee was in Spain for eight months, exhausted all of his all of his legal process and lost his final appeal at the end of eight months.

So, you know, Roger, I have no particular insight on the timing of this, but, you know, he's probably close to that decision point now. on extradition. So I keep that in mind every day as this Free Roger initiative continues. And then we have forty six days until Trump's inauguration. And I want to say I'm really optimistic about our ability to help Roger to get the word out and to continue this grassroots effort to help him achieve a pardon. And I think that this pardon can happen on day one. There are some people that are like, oh, no, it's not going to happen right away, and it's not a competition of free Ross versus free Roger. Both of these things should happen at the same time,

and it should happen right away. There's no expenditure of political capital to pardon Roger because there's nothing – actually controversial about his case once you dig into the facts of it and so so this is only uh short days and so uh there's gonna be a big ramp up in effort and you've probably seen it if you've been following there are a lot of great people involved this free rogers thing is a it's a group project it's a grassroots project a number of rogers friends are working on it and a number are doing media appearances and it's really started to to accelerate And part of tonight is I'm going to talk about, you know, an interesting part of the strategy or of the strategy

that I want to launch, which is, you know, related to not only helping to raise the awareness about this pardon campaign, but also to help reverse the dynamic, which is that The IRS and the federal government is doing this to have a chilling effect. They're doing it to have a chilling effect on the technologies that Roger has been promoting that actually facilitate P-to-P commerce, that are actually the solution to CBDCs. And so in addition to helping raise awareness to Roger's situation, I want to turn that chilling effect into a galvanizing effect and use this as an opportunity to actually increase adoption as opposed to having a chilling effect.

And so I'm going to go through, I'm not going to go through a lot of the stuff. If you're following the campaign, this website, the Free Roger Now, website really is the best place to go to find out in real time what is going on with the case. And you can see as you scroll down here, you can see some of the people that have signed. You can find information about the case itself. There's a link to the Zero Hedge article. That I wrote and then a description of what's going on with the legal case and also a link to buy hijacking Bitcoin, which I highly recommend because that I believe is also part of why Roger's in

this situation. But there are great videos here that I highly recommend that people watch. And if you want to learn more about what's going on with the specifics of the legal case, really look for videos that have either Tracy Thurman in them or have Robert Barnes. Robert Barnes is one of the best tax lawyers in the United States and has worked on some really high profile cases. And so he's been gracious enough to advocate for this. He was actually following this case for quite some time. And Tracy Thurman has done a phenomenal job as well and is very up to date on the intricacies of this. And so Tracy just did an interview with Mike Adams with Health Ranger, which is,

I'll be sharing the clips for that, but that's a great one. Robert Barnes just did an interview with, he's done one with Viva Frye. He was on Alex Jones. And there was also one with Tom Woods that also had Steve Patterson. So I really recommend checking those out. And it's really, it's phenomenal that there are all of these people stepping up to help represent the situation. So I'm not going to go through everything. All of the details on this, other than to say that yesterday, Roger's lawyers filed a motion to dismiss the case. And the more you look into this, I mean, basically, they're going after Roger first. Roger paid taxes when he left the United States.

He hired accountants and lawyers to advise him. And this is at a time when no one else was actually doing this. People didn't even know how to value crypto in twenty fourteen. Mt. Gox had just collapsed. Roger actually dotted all of his I's, crossed all of his T's, did all of the right things. And the government just decided almost ten years later, right after he released this book, Hijacking Bitcoin, and right as he was talking about Zeno and privacy coins, decided to arrest him, go after him retroactively, In this process, they violated his attorney-client privilege, raided his confidential communications. I mean, there are numerous constitutional violations. And so his lawyers have

filed a motion to dismiss that is very compelling. And I think hopefully the actual motion itself will be up on the site. Here it is. If you go scroll down to the bottom, motion to dismiss. This will give you the most up-to-date information on all of the specifics. You can actually read the full motion to dismiss itself as well as kind of a summary snapshot of all of the key points. And so I'm not gonna really harp on that because there are better people to talk about this legal case. What I want to talk about is something different, which is it's why is this happening? We know what is happening with Roger. We know that they

manufactured this case and they picked this really questionable timing, but I really wanted to delve into why. And so that's part of what I'm going to discuss today and also discuss what it is that we can do about it, because I think we're having a big impact. And as I said, I really believe We've got a great shot. And if Polly Market has anything to say about it. By the way, Polly Market just added Roger to the question of who will Trump pardon in the first one hundred days. So I encourage you to check out that prediction market. And I know a lot of people were advocating for that. And I flagged the CEO and many other people did. And so I'm grateful for however this ended up happening,

however this got added. I'm very excited about it because I believe this will bring significant awareness to this case, but also look at where Roger is. Roger's like right there with Ross. He's kind of opened up at sixty two percent. So I think there really is a strong chance that we can do this. And if you look at these other situations, I mean, Ross Ulbricht had his mother advocating for him. Julian Assange had Stella Assange. This is up to us. We as a group using this grassroots campaign, using this Free Roger campaign, we can be that voice. And I think even though we only have, you know, forty plus days to do it, I actually think that there are enough people putting

enough energy behind this that we can raise the awareness. And then I want to talk about something, you know, a lot of you might not know that Roger is actually a brown belt in jujitsu. And that actually inspired part of what I'm talking about tonight. So if you know anything about jujitsu, it's about it's not about brute force. It's essentially about using your enemy's energy against them. And so I've thought about that quite a bit. And I've thought about, OK, so what's going on here? Who's going after Roger? And if I think about this, and as you know, I've dedicated myself to fighting CBDCs. And the conclusion I've come to is that the reason they're going after Roger is Roger is the single

biggest threat to CBDCs. And I say that because, you know, he earned the Bitcoin Jesus name because, you know, if Roger wasn't there in the early days from twenty ten to twenty fifteen, Bitcoin wouldn't have hit one hundred thousand dollars this week. People would not know about Bitcoin and it would not be used as much as it is, despite the fact that it was hijacked and everything else. And I'll chat about that in a bit as well. But Roger's invested in over forty different projects and he's always been consistent about wanting peer to peer digital cash for the world. The very first time I heard him talk in twenty twelve, it was about providing an alternative to central banks that stops the

funding of these endless wars all over the world. And that allows everyone real financial inclusivity, allows anyone anywhere in the world to be able to use Money that is fast, cheap, and separate from state, separate from central banks. That has always been. So in addition to supporting Bitcoin early on, before it was hijacked, Roger was also a co-founder of XRP. And I know a lot of people are going to say, oh, XRP, I don't like XRP. I'm not a fan of XRP myself at this point in time. But Roger invested in the original founder. He was the original founding investor. Jed, I can't remember his last name, but was the actual founder of this. He's no longer at XRP, but Roger was there at the

very beginning. And his thesis was that, well, hey, maybe there's a way to have a P to P digital currency that doesn't have the same environmental impact as XRP. as Bitcoin with proof of work. That was why he invested in that. And he's invested in and supported a lot of other projects. And when Bitcoin was hijacked, Roger didn't create Bitcoin Cash, but he ended up kind of reluctantly at first supporting Bitcoin Cash because it did actually reflect the original vision of peer to peer digital cash. And so in any event, he's been very effective. XRP is now the third largest crypto by market cap. Bitcoin is the largest by market cap. So if you are the central bank and your collections

agency is the IRS and you're trying to stop this guy and you're trying to stop anything that could impede your ability to roll out CBDCs, Roger is going to come up. as enemy number one. I think that's exactly why he's in this situation because this case against him has no merit. It is so blatantly politically motivated. It's had an effect. It has had a chilling effect because I interviewed Roger early on before he had any opportunity to do any mainstream, interviews. Imagine if Roger had talked about hijacking Bitcoin on CNBC or on Fox Business or on Joe Rogan or with Brett Weinstein or some other platforms that have big audiences.

There'd be a completely different perspective now on what's going on in the world of Bitcoin. And in fact, I mean, today, if you look at what's going on, you have the chair of the Federal Reserve saying, oh, see, Bitcoin is digital gold. And people are now celebrating this this new narrative to me in a way that's kind of checkmate because Bitcoin wasn't supposed to be digital gold and we need peer to peer digital cash. Digital gold does not solve the problem of CBDCs. And so not only has this case against them had a chilling effect on this, as I will talk about later, it also has had a chilling effect on the project that Roger was starting, just starting to actively promote,

which is Zeno, which is, if you've been following me, you know a project that I've taken interest in because Roger mentioned it to me. And so they've been effective. And I think we need to turn that energy against them. I think we need to take this entire situation, this entire campaign, and bring awareness not only to the miscarriage of justice and the complete violation of Roger's constitutional rights, but we should also use this as a tool to spread privacy coins and to spread alternatives to central bank digital currencies. I'm inspired by the jujitsu aspect of this. Again, just to highlight, and I've shown some of these clips before, I'm not going to go through all the big ones,

but this is where Roger's position has been. on why he's interested in crypto from day one.

Underrated project in all of crypto. The most underrated one that I do know about, I think, is probably Zaino. I'm a big Zaino fan. Z-A-N-O. They have, it's the guy that wrote all the code to build, it's the same guy that wrote all the code to build Monero originally. And so Zaino is kind of like Monero in that sense, but you can have staking on it. And you can, I think the rewards like six percent APR or something on your stake Zaino. But the part that if it gets traction, I think will really be a big game changer. So it's totally private, like Monaro, you send a transaction, you don't know who sent what to who or any of that, but you can stake it, which previously before

they figured out how to do that, people thought it would be possible to stake a privacy coin because how do you know how much you've staked if it's a privacy coin? But somehow they figured out how to do that. But it also has tokens, but the tokens are totally private as well. So imagine like anybody can make like a monero style privacy token on top of this blockchain and then there's escrows built in and it's like nobody's really started using this in commerce yet but when people figure out that you can have like totally private anonymous like tokenized escrow stuff like there's just so much amazing cool commercial stuff that can be done on this and so like I think that's probably the most

underrated product that I'm aware of hopefully xeno I'm a big xeno fan

What's going on there? So I implore you to think, if you were a fan of Monero, where are the privacy tokens? I think that's the next big thing that's going to be exciting in the world of cryptocurrency. And so anyhow, I just want to thank everybody for coming. What an exciting time to be alive. We're right on the verge of AI becoming the smartest thing on the planet. But just like there's lots of humans that are much smarter than me on the planet, I get to benefit from their knowledge and their resources and the things that they do. all of us humans are going to get to benefit from AI and the new things and the new amazing things that it's going to figure out how to do.

So I just want to thank everybody and invite all of you again. If you're not using cryptocurrency in your daily life very much, use it more. If you're already using it a lot, get all your friends and everybody to use it more because that's how we're going to spread this technology to the entire world. And I just want to thank all of you again for being part of this amazing journey because we're really changing the entire world for the better thanks to cryptocurrencies. So thank you all so very, very much. So that was Roger's last talk. So again, right at around the time hijacking Bitcoin was released, Roger was just starting to talk about privacy tokens and just starting to talk about Zeno.

And so I want to say that when he introduced me to this idea, I think he'd heard me talking about the fact that I think we need a easy to use, point of sale system and an easy use wallet. And he reached out to me and he said, listen, you really should look at Zeno. And so I mean, I just blindly say, OK, well, I'm all in. But obviously, if Roger says, hey, maybe you should take a look at this. He's got a pretty good track record. He's why I got into Bitcoin. And then when I started living on cryptocurrency in twenty nineteen, I was predominantly using Bitcoin cash. So so I did what I normally do. I did a complete deep dove on this. I read the white paper. I went to the website,

read all of the information, joined the telegram group, downloaded a wallet, started using it, started asking people about it, started really kicking the tires. And I was just at Mineratopia in Mexico and I had an opportunity to meet in person the whole Zano team. And I will tell you that this project is amazing technology and it is everything that Roger had indicated that it was. Basically, they've been working on this technology for ten years. The main developer behind this project worked on the creation of Crypto Note, which is essentially the underlying technology for Monero. But the whole team Pavel, Andre, Val, and everyone else on the team from a marketing perspective.

A very intelligent team, but also committed to the truth. And they're also very humble and very accessible. And so I've really spent a lot of time kicking the tires on this. And I'm incredibly excited about it. And again, from the perspective, because we are now in bull market season, I got to be honest with you, I hate bull markets and crypto. This thing that happened yesterday with Hawk. was you know it just happens every time there's a bull market we end up with these celebrity influencers promoting tokens that have no purpose there's not even a use case there's not even a potential use case and this sucks all the oxygen out of the room and as I've been harping and what I

really resonated with when roger started talking about privacy tokens is this cbdc's are tokenized money But what they're working on, these people that are working on building this global technocracy, is taking that same tokenization technology and all of its surveillance features, the ability to program, track, and sensor, and they're going to digitize all of our other assets. They're going to digitize our stocks. They're going to digitize our homes, our bonds, our computers, all of our physical assets. Everything is going to be tokenized in a centralized way. manner. So money only represents five percent of global assets. Everything else, all of those other asset categories represent the

other ninety five percent. So these things need to be tokenized. This is why Zeno is such a powerful solution. I mean, somebody here said, in fact, to the point where I'm going to be rolling out a gold backed privacy stablecoin Using Zeno, and I'm not going to talk about that on this podcast, and that's a later topic of discussion, but after kicking the tires with Zeno, it really is a phenomenal solution. And so in the spirit of this jiu-jitsu move and trying to reverse the chilling effect, that they're having, I think we should use this as an opportunity to get people to start using Zeno

and using privacy tokens and make it so that, you know, whoever came up with the idea of, hey, we're going to politically go after this guy so that we can have a chilling effect and then violate all of his constitutional rights so that we can set a precedent and then go after everybody else in crypto. we need to shove that right up their backside. And so I'm going to talk a little bit about Zeno today. I don't usually talk about price. And I want to state again that I live on these assets. I stopped using a personal bank account. So I only use cryptocurrencies, gold and silver. And in the last four or five months, I've actually switched only into privacy coins because of the fact that we now

know that these public transparent blockchains can not only be traced, but are being traced. And this is how, for instance, they got Ross. This is how they got people like Ian Freeman and countless others. The United States has two hundred thousand Bitcoin. It did not get these by mining. It did not buy these on the open market. They got it through civil asset forfeiture, which is theft. And they can track people's transactions. So this is not a problem in the future. This is a problem now. And Zeno actually addresses that. I will show the price chart, though, because I'm going to say this because people get pissed off if I if I actually don't. talk about it, then people say, oh, well,

this thing went up a hundred X. Why didn't you tell me? And so I guess I'm telling you now, but I'm going to tell you now, not in the, I'm going to tell you why I think it's going to go up in value. And it's all about utility. So this thing is up, you know, four hundred and whatever, twenty five percent since I first started talking about it. But the market cap is still only about one hundred and fifteen million dollars. But understand that what Zeno is used for is to create privacy tokens and to make other assets private. It is also a privacy coin in its own right, similar to Monero. But let me tell you what some of the use cases for this are that are particularly relevant.

I believe there was a tweet about this today. It was announced a little while ago, but there was a big announcement today about something called Confidential Layer. Confidential Layer allows you to bridge your Bitcoin or Ethereum or Bitcoin Cash into Zeno. What this means is that you're basically able to tokenize your transparent tokens. cryptocurrencies and make them private. And I'm not going to go into all the details about how Confidential Layer works, but this is done at a cost of point zero three percent. So for point zero three percent, people are going to be able to make their Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash and Ethereum private with other coins and other projects.

in the future. That is one use case of Zeno, in addition to Zeno being able to be used as a cryptocurrency in its own right. As you know, I do these workshops all over the country, and I've been using CakeWallet. I love CakeWallet. CakeWallet was originally designed for Monero. I've actually been playing around with Zeno integration, so the integration is almost done. I'm able to use it successfully, so literally it's only a matter of short days or a few weeks before that's rolled out. And so that's going to be a game changer. CakeWallet now has five hundred thousand users. I just saw from the CEO, Vic, it was announced today that Bitcoin.com is going to

offer Zeno as well. They already offer wrapped Zeno. And in fact, you're going to be able to offload your Zeno Right now, you can off-ramp your wrapped Zeno to a debit card. And in the future, you will also be able to offload your Zeno directly to a debit card. And I believe they're also integrating confidential layer. So within the Bitcoin.com wallet, you will be able to make your Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash and Ethereum private using confidential layer in Zeno. I want to describe the scale of this it's my understanding and somebody I'm sure will correct me if I'm wrong that uh in it since its inception fifty million people have downloaded bitcoin.com wallets and my understanding is that there

are a million active wallets for bitcoin.com or more today so you look at bitcoin.com and cake wallet both integrating xeno this is one and a half million users that are going to be able to use Zeno directly or able to, in the case of Bitcoin.com, make your transparent blockchains private through Zeno, through the wallet. That is a big deal for use. So what I'm talking about, why Zeno is important, it's about use. And so the use case for this is if you agree that we are fighting tyranny, if you agree that transparent blockchains are problematic, governments are cracking down on these things all over the world, that CBDCs are coming, then this in and of itself

is a phenomenal piece of news. But you can tokenize more than just other cryptocurrencies. You can tokenize, as I mentioned, gold, you can tokenize stocks, bonds, homes, any I I think that there are one point five quadrillion dollars worth of global assets so this is a big market opportunity and a techno technology infrastructure that can be used to fight against technocracy there's also uh very close to implementation now payments now payments is a point of sale system and xeno is going to be integrated with that so by the time I resume my workshops we're going to be able to onboard people uh to xeno with cake wallet and then onboard merchants with now payments and then

at the end people will be able to use their cake wallet to buy something from a merchant using now payments and we recently through dan o'neill uh were onboarded uh canna sense uh canna sense is now able to take uh monero and bitcoin and xeno as soon as the now payments integration is done, and I could walk through how all of that works, but we're working through and now refining that onboarding process. So I'm saying this now so that people don't get mad at me later. This project that Roger told me about, that you just saw these video clips about Roger talking, I wish Roger could talk about it. Can you imagine if it wasn't Me talking about Zeno for the last six months,

imagine if it was Roger going all over the world talking about Zeno. I joke about this. The US government in part is going after Bitcoin Jesus so that it doesn't become Zeno Zeus. I'm only half kidding about that. This is an important technology and so I encourage everybody to take a look at that. which leads me to the next point. So what we're going to do with this, with the Free Roger Now campaign, and I will shift over and show you. Usually at this point, I would have told everybody to sign the open letter, but I didn't deliberately. Let me... All right, let me switch over here.

This is the Free Roger site, which I hope by now most of you have seen this site. Again, it's a great site. This is the form where people add their signatures. And I do want to take a step back and say this is really important. um over a period of ten years there were six hundred thousand signatures for ross holbrook and that did have a real impact a very positive impact and played a role in securing the commitment from uh president trump to commute ross's sentence so if you're sitting here saying oh I don't want to fill out these forms they don't matter I'm telling you right now They matter. Every little bit that we do every day matters. And in fact, I've learned that through this process.

You never know what's going to come of these things. This is incredibly important. But when you fill out the form now, there's now the option of adding, in addition to your name, your crypto address and your crypto network. So if you fill out this form, and you put in your Zeno wallet address and you pick Zeno as the network, then we'll send you a dollar's worth of Zeno. And then there's going to be a next step if you then, once you have your Zeno wallet, and I will show you the Zeno wallet itself is pretty easy to set up. Let me find...

You can just go to xeno.org, and you can go to the download page, and you'll see that it's available for desktop. It's available for Linux, Windows, Mac. It's also available in the App Store. uh very easy to download typical process so just download a wallet set up your wallet go through the normal process with your seed phrase and everything else click on your you know receive and then take that address and and and then add it to this form when you fill this out and then what you're going to do is you're going to create an alias An alias is, you know, when you have these crypto addresses, they're these really long

addresses with all these numbers and characters. No one can ever remember their address. It's one of the usability problems with crypto. One of the interesting features that Zeno is at is it's called an alias where you can, for I think it's point one Zeno, buy or point one one Zeno, buy an alias. Mine is at Aaron and you can pick whatever yours is. And then whenever you are conducting business with someone, you can just give them the simple alias and they can put that into their wallet and not have to remember or cut or paste or deal with QR codes just based on you typing in the alias. Then the full actual address with all the numbers and characters shows up. and then you're on your way

and so if you do this if you go through this process of creating an alias then after you fill out the open letter you'll get an email requesting you to submit your alias there'll be a form that you can go to and then you can submit your alias and then we're going to do a random drawing amongst the people that have submitted their aliases and there's going to be a another hundred dollar reward in Zeno. And that's just to get from where we are right now, which is we have sixty two hundred and fifty four signatures. And so basically once we get to ten thousand signatures, we're going to do that, that drawing, that random drawing based on the aliases. And then we're going to

reevaluate the program. We're not going to stop there, but this is just the first step of it. So again, the idea here is, you know, we want to turn this chilling effect by the IRS, you know, of shutting everything down into an opportunity to market this and to actually distribute privacy coins and to get people using these technologies, using aliases, not just again, this isn't about hype about price. This is about actually downloading a wallet, setting up an alias and starting to use it because that is the most important thing. I will play a short video that explains how to set up the alias.

You have to set up your Zeno wallet. Everyone, today I'll be showing you how to create a Zeno alias. Zeno is a privacy-centric cryptocurrency that allows you to create user-friendly addresses linked to your payment address. This makes it easier to send and receive payments without dealing with a long, complicated address. It's super simple. First, you have to set up your Zeno wallet, which I've already done here, and you have to have some Zeno. You can get it at any major exchange. Mexi.com is the Easiest one I'm aware of. Once you have that in your wallet there, you'll see a button right here that says create alias. And in fact, if you look here, if you want to receive payment,

this is what a current address looks like. Really, really, really long. ZXD, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. You have to copy and paste that or send that. It's a lot of work. But to fix that, you tap this create alias button you see right there under the price. So I'll tap create alias. And the alias is super simple. So in this case, I'm going to call this one ZenoList. but we'll call it ZenoList, right? And you can have a comment if you want. The fee to make an alias apparently is a zero point one one Zeno, which is like twenty five cents or something like that. So super, super simple. I had to create alias and then it's boom, done. And then you wait for a block. And so now if I want to tell

anybody to send me money in the future after one block, I'll just tell them, send money to me at ZenoList instead of instead of this big, giant, long address I won't have to use this anymore I just tell them send money to at xena list and we now have a at xena list cryptocurrency lot and there you go I waited just a moment you can see my account balance is about twenty cents less but I now have at xena list as my id if I want all I have to do is copy that to my clipboard and I can send that to anybody so at xena list is my new address and to show you guys how easy this is too If you make your own Zeno alias and post it in the comments below this video on YouTube, I will send you one whole

Zeno for free for the first ten people to post Zeno alias. There you go. Give it a try today. Zeno is the future of cryptocurrency payments because it's fast, private, super secure, works globally anywhere by default from the same development team that created the first version of what went on to become Monero as well.

Oh, I guess maybe the, I don't know if you missed that. So if you weren't hearing the audio, I'll just recap this quickly. The process here is to download the wallet, go back to freerogernow.org, sign the open letter, paste your Zano address. You will get a dollar worth of Zano. Then you can go back to the wallet. create a xeno alias you'll receive an email where you can submit your alias and then we will do a drawing to see once we hit ten thousand signatures uh who wins the one hundred dollar prize and then we'll evaluate and then hopefully scale this project up after that so the idea here is again to you know do some jujitsu and take this

situation uh where they're trying to have a chilling effect and turn it into a massive opportunity to to spread not only peer-to-peer digital cash, but also to raise awareness about the pardon and to roll it all into one. I'm seeing here now, don't know if he's looking at his chat, didn't hear him during slides. I'm assuming that people have been hearing me. It'll be pretty bad if no one was hearing me. Although I do hear in the other room, my wife, it's coming through. So I think the audio was generally fixed other than this piece here at the end. So in any event, that's the plan for now. I do hope people take a look at Zeno.

I do hope people continue to follow this case and share this information. Also, Reach out to me. I want to create a group on X where we can share posts and make sure that people retweet. Here's the problem, by the way, with all of this. So understand if you just share a link to freerogernow.org, it's automatically going to be suppressed. completely suppressed. You'll maybe get ten percent of the traffic that you might normally get by just posting an image or posting text. This is because every social media platform wants to keep people captive to their site. So what I've found is the most effective way to actually get people to

review this site is the old fashioned way, person to person, DM people. DM people on X, DM people on Facebook, go to Signal, Telegram, both individually to groups, SMS people, email people. Although if you're going to email people, I mean, you know, it seems like post COVID you have to email people five times to actually get a response. This is just the reality. that we're dealing with and so this person-to-person approach is going to be the best way to do it and if you can add the xeno component to it where you're saying to somebody hey you know go check out the site and by the way download a xeno wallet you'll get a dollar worth of of xeno that might be an extra added incentive and

also something that will help spread the word about xeno so I'm I'm hopeful that uh that we can turn this entire situation around and at the end of this roger's completely free man the case is dropped he's pardoned and and now we have a wildfire of adoption of peer-to-peer privacy coins and privacy tokens and so That that's basically basically the summary for today. I'm happy to answer any other questions. I see a few comments in here. There's not a lot in the comment section. Somebody somebody said Tracy's interview with Mike Adams was great. Yes, I highly encourage you to take a look at. uh tracy's interview with mike adams and I don't know if it's on the if it's not

on the website um I know I have clips that I'm going to be posting and I will post the link to the entire interview you definitely want to check that out uh great explanation of the case and everything that's going on kind of the most up-to-date of of everything um And again, there are a lot of other media interviews that are being scheduled. I know Angela McArdle did an interview yesterday, and she's been terrific. By the way, I think I mentioned this earlier, she's the chair of the Libertarian Party. If it wasn't for her action, Ross wouldn't be in the position that he is. He's in now, and so... So she's helping out with this Free Roger campaign. A lot of great people

putting effort behind this. And so, you know, we have whatever it is, forty two days. So anything that you can do to help spread the message and contact people directly about downloading a Zaino wallet and filling out this form. You know, if it's a barrier, people are just resistant to the download and have them sign the sign, the open letter anyway. We don't want to let that be a barrier, but it should be a positive incentive. So let's try to to make that happen. So if there aren't any other questions, then I did create another song. By the way, at the very beginning, I played two songs. I actually created those with AI. I've created a free Roger now. I guess it's the beginnings of an album,

which is available at Spotify, iTunes, Amazon. It's basically on all the major platforms. I'm going to add additional songs. There is no... There's no intention of I don't think I'll be making any money on this. If I do happen to make money on it, I'm going to dump it all into buying ads or whatever for promoting this campaign. I see I am for I am a week from today. World Blockchain Roundtable show is Roger Ver case update. So so I will try to make that possible. although I'm going to be at another event so I might not be able to make that unless it's a break but I encourage everybody to tune in to world blockchain

roundtable and I know there are going to be a large number of interviews uh that are going to be posted in the next week or two so Keep your eye out for that. Please retweet and share and help get the word out. But I think it looks good. Polymarket seems to say that this looks good. And again, we've got to stop this behavior, though. If they want to have a chilling effect on the adoption of peer-to-peer digital technology, we need to have a chilling effect on people trampling on the Constitution and having taxpayer-funded incentives to do so. we need to make that something that people find to be deplorable and the more I learn about irs incentives and I think the mic was not working when I

started to talk about that I've been doing some research into this and you know I'm trying to reverse engineer the process how was the decision made to go after people like roger And from previous conversations that we've had and what I've already discussed in my book under Biden, executive order one, four, zero, six, seven. He basically authorized the government to to go after people using a whole of government approach. So we know kind of where that started. But there is so much prosecutorial discretion. involved in all of these cases. So somewhere down the line, somebody made a very specific process. Why go after Roger and not anyone else? Why go after the guy that

hasn't been a citizen of this country for ten years? Why go after him? Why pick that moment in time. And then who all was involved and what are the internal processes for this? Because I think if we can expose that, then... Because this is not a case of there's just one bad IRS agent. This is a systemic problem. Of course, we should abolish the IRS, but short of abolishing the IRS, we should expose what the incentive systems are and how we actually managed to get into this place where they were being very egregious and very specific with their political persecution.

So the taxation and tyranny are creeping forward. Exiting the system is the only escape. I agree with that. This is lawfare. I mean, I agree with that as well. I mean, this isn't going to stop I am writing a new book. I didn't mention that. As you know, I've written an article basically stating that we already have a CBDC. You can see that on brownstone.org. Our money's already digital. It's already programmable. People are already getting debanked. Melania Trump, Barron Trump, you know probably half of you listening to this at bendy bank I bendy banked uh the clip recently with mark andreessen on joe rogan uh was great talking about the fact that all of these ceos have bendy bank

although I do wonder why he's only talking about it now it frustrates me that people have known about this for years, and there's only been a very small group of us talking about it. I think we need to change the culture on that. People need to speak out. It's the only way anything changes. And so in any event, this new book, I'm not only going to go into the fact that we already have a CBDC, we already have a social credit system. That social credit system is the tax code. The tax code is seventy five thousand pages long. Sixteen million words. All of our behavior is already tracked. There are already incentives and penalties for everything. And even if you think about it,

while buying a house, versus buying a car, this versus that. If you are doing something that's healthcare related, that has a different tax status to it. Incentives used for green energy projects. We just don't have an app. China has an app that shows people what their social credit score is. We're not told that there's a social credit system, but if we don't follow the sixteen million words, because of course none of us could read the sixteen million words, if we don't follow, we get thrown in prison. And this is an interesting fact. There are one point eight million people in prison in the United States. There are only one point six nine million people in prison in China. So in any event,

this new book is going to be eye opening. But the short form of it is and I agree with the comment here. We already live in tyranny. We already have a social credit system. We already have CBDCs. We just don't recognize it. And what I'm going to try to lay out in this book in very clear terms is an explanation of how we already have these things. And of course, the answer is that we need to exit. And Roger's been on top of this for fourteen years. And the most recent thing is he's been investing in new technologies. And as the market shifts, the most interesting thing that he's been working on and using and promoting is Zeno, which is why I'm encouraging people to take a look at that,

download a wallet and then participate in the open letter signature process and use this as a way to spread the word. So with that, if there aren't any other questions, I will close out with another song that I've made that's related to this process of signing this petition and getting a Zana wallet. Let me see if I can find the right file. So have a good night, everyone. I'll see you probably not next week, but two weeks from now.
