Threats and Adversity in Bitcoin

Pete Rizzo, editor at Bitcoin Magazine and editor in chief for Kraken joins me on the show to talk about his latest piece, ‘The Last Days of Satoshi’. We talk about various ideas:

• What Satoshi’s image was in the early community
• How things changed as Bitcoin got bigger
• Mistakes and bugs early in Bitcoin’s life
• How that colours our view going forward
• Bitcoin, Wikileaks, and the CIA
