2026-11-21 –, Pendulum - Main Stage
Two innocent Bitcoin developers were ripped away from their families in the dead of night by armed government agents before being locked away for crimes they objectively could not have committed.
William Hill and Keonne Rodriguez (The Samourai Developers) are serving lengthy prison sentences for the simple act of writing open source software that allowed anyone to protect their financial privacy.
But Privacy is NOT a crime.
This talk will expose the unjust persecution of Bill and Keonne, expose the hypocrisy and corruption of the state, and make it crystal clear why this case also impacts all of us, and how we plan to fight back!
If you think financial sovereignty is important, this talk is for you!

We're gonna run it back turbo and run another Samourai lottery. Fuck Paper Bitcoin, it's Free Samourai Season.
I will do a shorter version of the speech in Helsinki and we will pump the shit out of it on socials to try and raise as much as possible. (But you have to get the troops behind it!)
