Summary
Sabine's journey into Bitcoin began accidentally when she invested in a project that turned out to be a Ponzi scheme. She bought Bitcoin to participate in the project and continued to invest in Bitcoin as an asset without fully understanding it. She eventually realized the potential of Bitcoin at a conference and delved deeper into its values and principles. Sabine also discussed the mindset and beliefs around money, noting that in Germany, money is often seen as negative. She emphasized the importance of personal responsibility and learning about finances and self-custody in the Bitcoin space. In this conversation, Robin Seyr and Sabine discuss the influence of the Bitcoin community on newcomers, the toxicity of Bitcoin Twitter, and the underrepresentation of women in the space. They also touch on the evolving nature of Bitcoin and the importance of connecting with the community. Sabine shares her experience with investing in altcoins and her shift back to Bitcoin. They conclude with a discussion on the importance of finding one's own path and the value of photography.
