Thierry Baudet, Dutch politician and autor, was recently a guest at Chateau Crypto. In an interview the member of parliament talks with Chhay Lin Lim, an educator on blockchain technology.
Chateau Crypto is a crypto venture capital firm that invests in various blockchain startups. Some examples include Nakamoto Games, Your Open Metavere, NuLink and UpOnly.
“Blockchain is the only way to preserve our freedom”
The conversation included how blockchain can begin to play a role in our daily lives. For example, how it can ensure that governments don’t become too powerful, something that Thierry Baudet is afraid of. He says he thinks that money is going to become more and more digital, which would make everything traceable by the government.
According to him, this can creates many dangers. For example, when you get given CO2 points. You would then only be able to emit a certain amount of CO2, according to him, because you actually can’t buy any more emitting products when your points run out.
“Blockchain is the only way to preserve our freedom” says the party leader of Forum for Democracy. With this, he indicated that he thinks there is no going back as long as the current financial system remains in place.
He also touched other topics, like non-fungible tokens – NFTs. He recently founded a company called Amsterdam Books. The company will be the first in the world to link physicial books to non-fungible tokens. When you buy a book and an NFT from Amsterdam Books, you’ll get access to exclusive events, like airdrop opportunities.
