The Bitcoin Podcast

This is a very special ORWD! Dee gets to talk with his brother about Bitcoin. After initially showing Nathan Bitcoin in 2013...4 years later, not only has Nathan purchased, but his curiosity is almost more than his reservation for Bitcoin. He's appreciated the gains in his money pots, but yearns to take nibbles of all that is crypto and learn about this paradigm shifting platform. Enjoy...this is a jazzy talk!

You see, generating electricity from renewable energy rather than fossil fuels offers significant public health benefits. But there are barriers.

Only a handful of people have been able to answer our '10 words or less' question three times. Alex comes back on the show in true hat trick form, but this time he comes solo to talk about a variety of topics. Alex Sunnarborg is a research analyst at CoinDesk. Previously, he was a founder and the CFO of Lawnmower, a blockchain investment and market research firm acquired by CoinDesk in January 2017. We haven't chatted with him since the acquisition so we thought we would catch up. Press play PAB!
