In this Finnish‑language interview on the Konsensus Network channel, host Niko Laamanen talks with Jonas (Joonas) Ilmasti, the founder of the crypto‑compliance consultancy btcadvisor.net. Ilmasti recounts his academic background in law (Turku) and finance (London), his early fascination with Austrian economics and libertarian thinkers such as Milton Friedman, Ron Paul, and the Mises Institute, and his first exposure to Bitcoin in 2013. He describes his transition from a traditional corporate career to the crypto space, detailing his roles in blockchain meet‑ups, an investment blog, and especially his work as a Chief Compliance Officer developing AML/KYC, GDPR, and regulator‑registration processes for crypto firms. The conversation then shifts to the ongoing Finnish translation of Saifedean Ammous’s book The Bitcoin Standard. Ilmasti and Laamanen discuss the challenges of translating technical monetary‑theory terms (e.g., “sound money”, “hard money”), the collaborative Telegram group used for terminology decisions, and the broader goal of making the book accessible to Finnish readers. They also touch on the book’s balanced stance, the research bulletins that explore potential attack vectors on Bitcoin, and speculative future scenarios such as Bitcoin’s similarity to BitTorrent or the emergence of alternative “gold‑standard” digital monies. Throughout, Ilmasti emphasizes the voluntary, trust‑minimising nature of Bitcoin, the importance of financial education, and his consulting services that cover AML policy design, GDPR compliance, crypto‑tax advice, inheritance planning, market research, and business development. The interview ends with a brief plug for his upcoming website and social‑media channels.
