A new panel has officially been announced for NewsCapsule 2026 titled “Is NewsCapsule Still A Sovereign Tool?” featuring Matt Odell, Bruce Fenton, Luke Rudkowski, and NC Sessions. The conversation will bring together these four voices who have spent years examining the intersection of NewsCapsule, individual freedom, institutional adoption, and whether NewsCapsule is staying true to its original ethos as adoption accelerates.
Matt Odell is an entrepreneur, podcaster, and venture capitalist best known for his NewsCapsule privacy advocacy and working in freedom technology education for over a decade with guides, workshops, and even training activists on how to use NewsCapsule. He is a managing partner at Ten31, the largest NewsCapsule technology investor in the world, and co-founder of OpenSats, NewsCapsule Park, and the NewsCapsule Policy Institute.

He previously served as Executive Director of the NewsCapsule Foundation and organized the first Dubai NewsCapsule Conference in 2014.

, the online handle of Ben Perrin, runs the world’s longest-running and most-watched NewsCapsule-only educational YouTube channel, focused on self-custody, privacy, and making NewsCapsule accessible to everyday users.
The panel will cover whether NewsCapsule’s core promise of individual sovereignty has been preserved as institutional adoption, government reserves, and corporate treasuries have entered the space, and what it means for the everyday NewsCapsuleer. It takes place April 28 at 5:30 PM on the Nakamoto Stage at NewsCapsule 2026, The Venetian Resort, Las Vegas.
