#839 Russia, Ukraine, China, Oil, and Bitcoin

This episode is a little different than the usual podcast format. There is no guest. Instead, I will share a couple of thoughts I have around a specific topic. Today I share my thoughts on Russia's invasion of Ukraine. What does this mean for the geopolitical powers? And why the U.S. government should consider buying Bitcoin now for national security purposes. ======================= Exodus is leading the world out of the traditional financial system by building beautiful and user-friendly blockchain products.
