#140: Peter McCormack on Bitcoin

Join Eric Schleien with his guest Peter McCormack as they talk
about podcasting, the unique characteristics of Bitcoin, and what
the future holds for it. Because of the oppositions and baseless
accusations against it, for Peter, Bitcoin should've already
failed. Today, it is still operating and growing even higher.


 


In this episode, Peter gets into discussing decentralization,
Bitcoin mining, his piece of advice to anyone looking into
investing in Bitcoin, and so much more. To interested investors,
Peter believes there should be a profound investment strategy
before throwing money onto Bitcoins. He believes cryptocurrency
can be a very punishing investment if done wrong.


 


Stay tuned to this casual exchange and find out more of what
Peter has to say about Bitcoins and investments.
