Mitch Burcham Interview - How The Government Commandeered Bitcoin & Its Decentralized Future

Joining me today is Mitch Burcham, Director of Advanced Studies
at the Blockchain Academy, here to discuss what he sees as the
true vision, the original vision, of Bitcoin. We discuss whether
Bitcoin has effectively been hijacked or commandeered by power
structures to suit their interests of control, as opposed to what
many feel was Bitcoin's original direction of decentralized
interactions between individuals, specifically peer-to-peer
transactions without the need for banks or governments. This has
become a very contentious topic in the world of cryptocurrency as
well as for average people who have justifiable concerns
regarding any digital currency. We discuss the concepts of
cryptocurrency and blockchain technology and how they can be used
like any tool, as a weapon or to build something new, and how now
is the time to strike that new path.
