A Bricked Phone, the Digital Euro, and Bitcoin's Way Out | Get Real

There is a fork in the road for digital money. One path is the CBDC: money a government can program, limit, or switch off. The other is Bitcoin: money you actually own and no one can freeze. This week Cory Klippsten and Emily Dempsey open with a UK man locked out of his own phone for refusing age verification, then trace the same plumbing through Britain's new Social Media (Minimum Age) Act, the EU's digital euro vote, and the G7's coordinated push. Plus the story of PGP and why this privacy fight is 35 years old. Afterparty on X Spaces with @CorySwan. Get Real, live Thursdays at noon ET.
