Read_292 – Rise of the Sovereign Individual [dergigi]

If you were looking for a succinct summation of the philosophy and to understand why we are so avid about using Bitcoin, encrypting our communication, and why we think these things are critical for a better future, this is the episode you’re looking for.
Beginning with a read of @Dergigi’s great piece on the Bull Bitcoin Medium page, “Rise of the Sovereign Individual.” Followed by a discussion about what liberty is, why we should be defending it, and what tools we have to truly “install” it on our future.

Read_291 – Bitcoin Can’t Be Copied [Parker Lewis]

Today we start into the second piece of the “Gradually, Then Suddenly” series by Parker Lewis. Why altcoiners can claim their coin is for something other than money, but it must compete with Bitcoin as money regardless. Why money will only tend to one. Why copies of Bitcoin are just modern day alchemy. And why toxic maximalism is Bitcoin’s greatest strength. Don’t miss a great piece and fun discussion to follow!
