Money Without Banks - Brandon Quittem, Demystifysci #383

In this episode of DemystifySci, we peer into the very separate
roots of banking and blockchain finance to find what’s alive
beneath the myth. Bitcoin guru and amateur mycologist, Brandon
Quittem, joins us to trace the fall of old empires and the rise
of a new code-born freedom. The conversation drifts between
history and possibility, where gold becomes data and control
slips through the fingers of the elite. What remains is a
question: can money succeed without those who steer its value?
