Episode notes

People are not cogs in a machine. You can't just turn them from English to Esperanto or whatever. It's like people have their own choices. And you almost have to respect the complexity of that system and give individual autonomy. So it's almost like a central planners fallacy, right? They treat,. what does Tlaub say, confusing the cat for the washing machine? "In reality, we're dynamic, we're complex, we're unpredictable, basically"

Josef Tětek joins me to discuss the relationship between the Austrian School of Economics with Bitcoin, the impact of time preference, and the non-state properties of Bitcoin.

Josef Tětekis an author and a podcaster. He works as a Bitcoin Analyst at SatoshiLabs.
