In today's episode, Brian sits down to chat with Freddie New, the co-founder of Bitcoin Policy UK. The topic of Bitcoin in the UK is a taboo, which is why it is important we have more open discussions like this and help educate as many people as possible.Freddie is a corporate lawyer by training, however he has industry expertise in submissions to HM Treasury, the FCA, HMRC and to Parliamentary committees, so as far as I am concerned- he has some things worth saying.To find out more about Freddie, and Bitcoin Policy UK, follow the links below:X - https://x.com/freddienewWebsite - https://bitcoinpolicy.uk/
