Like Omid Malekan, the author of The Story of the Blockchain, A Beginner's Guide to the Technology That Nobody Understands has said, money is primarily a trust-building mechanism.

In this episode, after teasing so long, finally, Omid Malekan, comes on to talk about his new book, Re-architecting Trust, The Curse of History and The Crypto Cure for Money, Markets, and Platforms. We talked about the evolution from the barter system to gold, to cash to bitcoin. We also talked about the relationship  between trust and money, and how would that translate into Bitcoin and crypto!

All and all, this is the 101 of Bitcoin, Crypto, Trust, and Money!
