Your Hosts

Andrew Finnie

I built a career in technology sales while simultaneously growing a real estate portfolio—working two jobs for years in an effort to stay ahead of inflation and ongoing monetary debasement. But even with discipline and drive, I began to question whether traditional investments could truly preserve long-term wealth.

Discovering Bitcoin shifted everything. Its fixed supply, decentralised nature, and self-sovereign qualities reframed how I think about value and security across generations.

Today, I work with The Bitcoin Adviser, guiding people from their first purchase through to secure, collaborative security and long-term planning. I also host the Northern Beaches Bitcoin Meetup, where I’m fortunate to connect with people at all stages of their journey. It’s a privilege—and I keep an open-door policy for anyone seeking clarity, guidance, or just a good conversation about Bitcoin.

After more than a decade as Operations Manager for a Northern Beaches security firm—where I developed policy, mitigated risk, and handled mission-critical events—I came to a hard truth: conventional career paths and savings strategies wouldn’t secure the future I wanted.

Discovering Bitcoin was the turning point. It reframed my understanding of money, sovereignty, and long-term resilience.

Today, I focus on advancing Bitcoin in Australia as CEO of the Australian Bitcoin Industry Body, by building industry relationships, engaging policymakers, and supporting local communities through meetups and education.
