Human Rights Foundation’s Alex Gladstein told a group of US political leaders that Bitcoin has “essentially saved” citizens living under dictatorships.
A Human Rights Foundation executive told a room full of US politicians that Bitcoin continues to prove itself as a powerful tool against authoritarian control, offering an alternative to the mounting ways fiat currency can be manipulated and controlled.
“With Bitcoin, the ability of these leaders to do these things is completely decimated,” Human Rights Foundation chief strategy officer Alex Gladstein said at the Bitcoin Policy Summit in Washington, D.C. on Thursday.
“Bitcoin is bad for dictators,” he added.
