Show Notes

"Bitcoin’s capped supply is one of its most well-known features, and it is regularly cited as a hedge against inflation caused by government money printing.
Most people don’t know that Bitcoin has another attribute that acts as a hedge against a far larger risk."  -
Nick Neuman

Today we read a short article on BitcoinMagazine that shines light an incredible benefit of the Bitcoin system that isn't so widely understood. It isn't simply an independent monetary policy, its an independent monetary *system,* and by that fact a hedge against the instability of much more than merely inflation. Listen to today's episode to find out more!
