Bitcoin Rapid-Fire

I first came across this father/son duo via an article in Citadel21, in which they laid out their vision for how the 'bitcoin citadel' model would unfold.  Finding ways to establish and maintain a life of freedom and prosperity is increasingly important today, as powerful forces conspire to forcefully impose their ideologies and worldview on everyone else. It is an extremely concerning trend that...

Tomer has become a prolific author in the bitcoin space, having written several pieces about bitcoin, bitcoiners, and the many implications of this unprecedented form of money emerging in the world.

Bitcoin mining is beginning to represent a significant opportunity for 'legacy' oil and gas producers. It allows them to diversify into new and reliable revenue streams, reduce negative environmental side-effects of production, and (greatly) strengthen their balance sheets by retaining some or all of the bitcoin they mine.   Ryan is the co-founder of Jai Energy, a company that is helping oil...

I'm sure many would agree that the world seems to be falling further into chaos with each passing day.    Bitcoiners have been discussing this problem for a long time, as well as the necessity to build a parallel system in response, for those who wish to opt-out of the old system, and opt-in to one more in-line with their principles and values (most of all, freedom).   While they've...

Lubomir Arsov is the creator of the film 'In Shadow'. The film deals with concepts and themes relating to the degradation of modern culture, and the psychological, emotional, ideological, economic, and spiritual antecedents which have contributed to it. It is a sharp and provocative film, which illustrates the ugliness of our current situation, but finishes with powerful imagery of hope and transc...

For many, the events and changes which we observe throughout the course of our life can appear random, seemingly without predictable cause or pattern. As a result, we relegate ourselves to simply reacting to things as they occur, which often means we are far more subject to the imposition which those events cause, than we might have been, had we acted sooner. To some, it feels like we are currentl...

Oliver Aubin-Mercier is a professional MMA fighter from Quebec, Canada, currently on a 2-fight win streak in the Professional Fighters League, after an impressive 11 fight run in the UFC. He recently made waves in the bitcoin space through his sponsorship by Bull Bitcoin.

Every now and then, I come across someone on twitter, and just get a sense that we could have a good conversation, so I reach out to them to see if they'd be interested in jumping on a livestream for a chat. That's what happened with Kyle.   Enjoy!   --   More from Kyle:  TWITTER: https://twitter.com/the_bitcoin_bum  More from me:  TWITTER: http://bit.ly/2P7PUjA YOUTU...

Buying bitcoin is not enough. It is essential to take self-custody of your bitcoin, to benefit from the full self-sovereignty over your money that bitcoin permits.   Hardware wallets have become the preferred way to custody bitcoin, which makes it important to understand how they are developed and built.   Therefore, I thought it would be interesting to have the co-creator of popular har...

Bitcoin has a tendency to radically reshape ones perspective on many things, and how we grow our food, and care for the land it's raised on, is no exception.   In this episode I'm joined by two men who are leveraging the unique attributes of bitcoin, and the fresh perspective it has inspired in them, to develop a new approach to cattle ranching, and simultaneously support the efforts of many...

I recently made a trip down to El Zonte, El Salvador, to see and experience what has become a famous town for its broad use of bitcoin, and the impetus for El Salvador's new Bitcoin legal tender law. I met Jorge and Chimbera at Hope House, a home base for charitable work they have been doing in the area, and a work space for bitcoin-related projects. They told me that they exercise every morning a...

Aaron Segal is a portfolio manager at a NYC based hedge fund, and as of 2020, a bitcoin maximalist deep down the rabbit-hole.

The Bitcoin 2021 Conference in Miami was a huge success, and a monumental event in bitcoin's history.  Over 13k people descended on Miami to come together, meet each other, build relationships, talk bitcoin, and have fun.   There was lots of tears, and special moments that many of us will remember for the rest of our lives.   I thought it would be fun to get some of the organizers f...

Alex Epstein is philosopher, and the author of 'The Moral Case for Fossil Fuels'.   I've appreciated Alex's work in helping to bring balance to the discourse around climate change, and in particular the role played by fossil fuels in that dynamic.   The narrative around fossil fuels and climate change has become so ingrained in our culture, that if you question it, you are often ridicule...

If you've been hanging out on twitter you may have seen several people with Laser eyes imposed over their profile pictures. Though this started as a meme around bitcoin reaching 100k dollars in price (#LaserRayUntil100k), it has become a signal for ones support of what bitcoin represents.
