Through my work with Web3 firms and crypto VCs, I have seen DeSci platforms like Bio Protocol help researchers raise funds and publish findings on-chain. This brings transparency to how projects are financed and gives more scientists, including those outside major institutions, a path to support and visibility. It is a clear example of blockchain improving equity in research and access to knowledge.
Churches holding cash reserves watched $1M become $800K in purchasing power. With $500K in annual donations, that's a $96,500 per year erosion in Kingdom impact; fewer meals, fewer programs, fewer lives changed. The Fed printed 40% of all dollars during COVID. Inflation isn't theoretical; it's an invisible tax on the Christian mandate to go into all of the world preaching the Kingdom of Heaven and making disciples. In my book "Bitcoin and Faith," I explore Joseph the Dreamer's wisdom: he stored grain before Egypt's famine, preserving value when traditional systems failed. Joseph didn't wait for crisis; he stewarded proactively. Digital assets, like Bitcoin, enable this in ways fiat currency cannot. Bitcoin functions as a modern storehouse: decentralized, finite with only 21 million, censorship-resistant. From the mega church to the underground church, we are instructed not to bury Kingdom resources, but to deploy and grow them to His glory. As the lead of Jubilee Protocol, we are building yield bearing treasury infrastructure for churches. Our first product, jBTCi (Jubilee Bitcoin Index), is an automated fund on Base maintaining a 50/50 allocation between institutional Bitcoin versions (WBTC/cbBTC). It generates yield through arbitrage when prices diverge; this means no lending and zero counterparty risk. The minimum deposit is only 0.01 BTC, taking away the complexity of decentralized finance. My personal thesis for mass adoption is as follows: make it easy to understand, which speaks to education, make it easy to build on, which speaks to enterprise as well as industry, and make it easy to integrate, which speaks to government. This is precisely why I'm serving as a strategic advisor to Wisconsin State Senator Dora Drake on pioneering legislation known as the WIN Bill, proposing a safe framework for Wisconsin, grant funding for businesses, and education. If passed, Wisconsin becomes a case study on legislating clear digital asset infrastructure for churches, nonprofits, and businesses. The global system faces unprecedented strain. We're entering what Jesus called 'the days of Noah' and life continues while foundations begin to crack. The Church needs a financial Ark. Jubilee Protocol is building it: transparent on-chain accounting, institutional-grade security, global reach, privacy, and accessibility. As value shifts, the prepared will advance the Kingdom of Heaven. Discipleship and stewardship are both charges from Jesus.
