Niko Laamanen is the founder of Konsensus Network, a company that focuses on localising and distributing important literature about bitcoin, Austrian economics, and sovereignty.
Niko recognised the importance of being able to convey the Bitcoin message into other languages, starting with the Finnish edition of The Bitcoin Standard which he and a small group of volunteers translated themselves. Since then the company has published over 60 books in dozens of languages.
We talk about the Konsensus Network’s mission, and the way they operate as a decentralised organisation, and at a higher-level explore the idea of how a small group can affect powerful change.
