Seedless is safer is an attack on Bitcoin. Bitkey makes totally reasonable tradeoffs for noobs with modest stacks. But this is dishonest marketing at best.

Awesome episode. The points discussed don’t just defend Bitcoin, but put on their heads so many of the ideas and definitions that have become norms in the fight against fiat. Hyperbitcoinization is really already here in many ways. And so is hyperinflation.

I really don’t get the quantum FUD. Even if you set aside the fact that it’s a venture capital scam: If you are worried, buy and hold in a Segwit address and wait until the fork to fix it.

    Some heavy hitters @npub16le69k9hw… Great discussion fellas. We certainly are living in fast times. I thought the looks ahead to the possibility of a permanent underclass weren’t really looks ahead, honestly. A lot of 20- and 30-somethings in the US would tell you we’re already there.
