Show Notes

"Like any powerful technology, bitcoin can be used for good or ill. As proponents of the technology like to say, bitcoin is “money for enemies” because it’s a bearer asset that can be verified rather than trusted, and it’s hard to block payments for anyone. It’s like a commodity; something that can be partially regulated within certain jurisdictions but that in the holistic sense, exists outside of anyone’s control." - Lyn Alden Today we hit the third and final part of Lyn Alden's incredible breakdown of the history and nature of money, and how it enlightens the changing monetary landscape and the rise of digital assets.
