Show 500!!!


What a ride it's been since I recorded my first show in November
2017. I'm so grateful to all the listeners, particularly those
who send their support. Thanks to all the fascinating people I've
had the privilege to interview: so many great stories, opinions,
and advice. Thanks to my amazing sponsors - you enable my team to
make what we think is the best show in the market.


And finally, big up to the team, roll on the next 500!


This show is as good as it gets in terms of guests and subject
matter. Two major figures within the industry who I'm now lucky
enough to call friends. And I hope you enjoy listening to them as
much as I did. They're as excited about Bitcoin's opportunities
as they've ever been.


We speak about their recent visit to El Salvador and the unique
and inspiring mood of hope within the country. The media are
still dubious about Bukele's Bitcoin reforms, and the government
is dealing with tough domestic and international challenges.
However, it is infectious to hear how inspired two seasoned
entrepreneurs are by what they witnessed in the country.


Jeff and Austin also talk about the societal issues that Bitcoin
is perhaps uniquely placed to mitigate: threats to freedom, not
just from authoritarian governments but also from traditionally
liberal establishments; pervasive misinformation directed at
citizens; and rapid technological changes that will upend
society.


This is why Jeff and Austin are bullish that UX improvements have
the potential to onboard hundreds of millions more to Bitcoin.
