Show Notes

"But, I keep coming to the same conclusion: We are here for this movement. We are here to build a parallel economy that will eventually take over the old fiat system. I’m not a dev, I don’t have a large audience, I don’t have meetings with Jeff Bezos or presidents like Jack Ballers (no, that is not a typo). One day, I came to this realization: I’m not the only one struggling transporting people into the new world. Cough, cough... .01%. We are all struggling to unplug people from the matrix. Hence, my motivation behind “An Orange Pill For Bitcoiners.” This is my first and probably will be the last article I ever write. But I had this “ah ha” moment a few months back. I was at the gym..." – Austin Herbert When the light goes on and we finally "see" Bitcoin, it's impossible to view the world the same way. We go "down the rabbit hole" and irrevocably change our perspective of how the world works. We take the orange pill." But for a technology that is so compelling, an innovation so astonishingly important, why are we still so few in number? Why has it still been so hard to wake others up and get them to "see what we see?" Austin Herbert tells his story of orange pilling, his struggles, and why the ones who need an orange pill the most, are actually already Bitcoiners... A must listen.
