Bitcoin and Cryptosovereignty with Erik Cason (WiM293)
The "What is Money?" Show
How to Crystallize Your Bitcoin Journey
"I don't have the ability to fill in the Swiss cheese holes that they need to understand Bitcoin, only they can do it. And so I think the real importance is the willingness to actually question in a meaningful way," he says. "If you're here to get rich, like I can't help you... Like buy Bitcoin and hold it."
Erik Cason joins me to discuss the philosophical definition of truth, the meaning of Bitcoin and real capitalism, how Bitcoin is changing our language, the notion of true sovereignty, and how Bitcoin is proving to be the ultimate constant.
Erik Cason is a philosopher and Bitcoin author. His published articles and upcoming book are focused on the philosophical aspects of the Cryptosovereignty and Bitcoin.
