He views Bitcoin as a defense against what he describes as the “tyrant state” and inflation. Moicano recently shared his thoughts on the importance of the general public paying more attention to this new form of currency.
Renato Moicano recently did another episode of the Show Me The Money podcast.

He sees Bitcoin as a decentralized alternative that offers protection from government exploitation and the devaluation of currency through inflation.

After his UFC 300 victory, Moicano publicly requested that his bonus be paid in Bitcoin. The Brazilian has repeatedly signaled his belief in the cryptocurrency’s long-term potential compared to traditional currencies. He discussed how inflation and economic uncertainties make Bitcoin a better option for preserving value over time.
He contrasted it with the devaluation of fiat money like the US dollar. Moicano’s stance is part of a broader trend among people standing up against ‘government exploitation’. However, the Brazilian has advised people to do their own research and not simply hop on because he said so.
