“The biggest mistake you can possibly make today is not changing your denominator to Bitcoin. If you're measuring everything in the US dollar, the euro, any other cryptocurrency, you're doing it wrong because Bitcoin is the signal. And outperforming Bitcoin is nearly impossible at this point.”

On this Bitcoin Talk episode of THE Bitcoin Podcast, Walker talks with Phil Geiger, VP of Product Marketing at Unchained.
