Ground tZero with Patrick Byrne of Overstock.com

The crypto market may feel like it has slowed down, but projects are continuing at an accelerating pace, with some of the biggest names in finance and new media taking interest in blockchain projects. Today, we are pleased to welcome back Patrick Byrne, the CEO of Overstock.com. As the first major online retailer to accept Bitcoin payments, Overstock is doing some interesting things, including the upcoming launch of the tZero project. Bad Crypto correspondent Rachel Wolfson recently caught up with Patrick to get the latest.

Our first birthday is coming up in just a few weeks and many of you will be joining us to celebrate in Denver, Colorado. More on that, as well as a look at the growing deadpool of crypto projects.

It’s like bacon and eggs without the cholesterol. Welcome to episode #147 of The Bad Crypto Podcast.
