"I didn’t believe it when I first heard people saying that most crypto projects will fail. Boy was I wrong." - @Vanalli Take it from someone who has seen "Crypto" from the inside, searching for something of value, and coming up short. An excellent write up of an honest, unapologetic look at the sea of crypto crap, utility tokens, and pointless blockchain projects.  A clear demonstration of the "Everyone's a Scammer" rule in the Bitcoin space, Vanalli tells us what it was like working in Crypto for 2 years, and why he had to finally take the exit. Dropped some applause for Matt at the original link below!

"Make no mistake: the EARN IT Act is a vehicle to undermine end-to-end encryption." - Elliot Harmon A very important episode on a topic that people need to be aware of. There is a bill in Congress, one of the continuous attempts for the past 25 or so years, that will create enormous collateral damage to our freedom of speech, and privacy online. Not to mention putting the many abuses of surveillances capitalism on steroids. An excellent article from the EFF breaks it all down.

"Not too many years from now, the number of Bitcoiners in the United States of America will cross ten million.  When we hit that milestone, it’s game over: Bitcoin wins..." - Cory Klippsten Diving into our first read from the Swan Bitcoin blog by their CEO Cory Klippsten, we explore the simple, but powerful idea of the Intransigent Minority. Laid out in Nassim Taleb's book "Skin in the Game" the intransigent minority is the target for the number of Bitcoiners that would be needed to reach the point of no return. What might that number be, and how do we get there? Listen to a short, fun read on building the intransigent minority. This episode is actually sponsored by none other than Swan Bitcoin!

"We, Bitcoiners, are all dissidents in the Old World of trusted third parties. [...] Laws of nature that are higher than man-made laws, being enforced by mathematics, have begun to reorganize a society."  - Nozomi Hayase Bitcoin isn't merely a new money, it's a radical departure from the systems of trust. It founds a new system where incentives align in a beautiful design to enforce cooperation through the independent self-interest of opposing parties.  As a technology of dissent, it doesn't allow us merely to protest the old system's of control, but instead gives us an avenue to opt out altogether.
