Show Notes

"While many of the innovations in the space are new, they’re built on decades of work that led to this point. By tracing this history, we can understand the motivations behind the movement that spawned bitcoin and share its vision for the future."


Context matters. If you don't know the history of the cypherpunks and where we are coming from. Then you may not really know where we are today. Listen to Lopp's amazing piece from 2016, Bitcoin & the Rise of the Cypherpunks.
