In this third episode of our ongoing series with Michael Howell, Nik dives deep into the intricacies of Bitcoin, focusing on its limited supply, mining mechanics, and the integrity of the network. They get into the weeds of individual nodes and the role they play in maintaining network security. They also discuss the impact of government actions, the rise of ETFs, and the role that bitcoin could one day play as a form of collateral in the financial system. Nik also explains the main differences between bitcoin, altcoins, and gold.
