I've recently switched from writing in Dutch and English, to using English more and more. Also the podcast itself will probably switch over time.
The reason is complex: I really want to let the voice of Belgian / Dutch speaking bitcoiners be heard. But there's zero, and I mean zero interest in that outside of our country. Not one podcaster internationally reached out.
Of course they're happy interviewing the same 10 big names over and over again, to the point where we even know their dog's favorite squeaky toy.
The community itself is also complex and infested (in my opinion) with blatant "soft scams" in the bitcoin space itself. The 10 plus brands of hardware wallets, the hats, the stickers, the shirts, the webinars and so forth.
As soon as you are an ad-free and sponsor free podcast, they don't see the "use" for you, or at least you're marginalized because you're "a real bitcoiner" and not someone who will speak fondly of whatever project is launched or book that's written.
So... maybe I need to double down on this, and go even harder and more radical in this approach I did on a local level, ... and be critical and calling **** out on a more broad level.
Because there's a lot to talk about, and up to now, I only did so in Dutch. I can't hurt my sponsors, because I have none, I can't hurt my advertisers, because I have none.
