Hell Money

It's Wartime Bitcoin! We're getting deranged with our dear friends Mark and Diane and going off about a variety of topics: global currency collapse, anti-government sentiment, the death of the Queen, and the Kardashians as the American Royal Family.   FOLLOW MARK ON TWITTER: https://twitter.com/markgoodw_in  FOLLOW DIANE ON TWITTER: https://mobile.twitter.com/diehuxx FOLLOW HELL MONEY POD ON TWITTER: https://twitter.com/hellmoneypod   SUBSCRIBE ON YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCflejnUswWof6yEMk9dRzOA LISTEN TO US ON FOUNTAIN: https://fountain.fm/show/W8pjfavWchv8diXjikgC FIND US WHEREVER YOU GET YOUR PODCASTS: hellpodcast.money

Hell money is a form of joss paper, made to resemble modern fiat currencies, transmitted to the underworld via incineration and intended to ease the lives of departed ancestors. However, given their increasing denomination and huge popularity, the burning of hell money in the overworld may be leading to runaway hyperinflation in the underworld. In this episode, Erin and Casey speculate on the macroeconomic condition of the underworld, why Bitcoin may be the future of hell money, and sync a Bitcoin Core node.   SUBSCRIBE ON YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCflejnUswWof6yEMk9dRzOA FOLLOW US ON TWITTER: https://twitter.com/hellmoneypod LISTEN TO US ON FOUNTAIN: https://fountain.fm/show/W8pjfavWchv8diXjikgC FIND US WHEREVER YOU GET YOUR PODCASTS: hellpodcast.money

After months of preparation (drunken arguments at bars, intensive costume selection), Casey and Erin are finally debating Capitalism. We discuss the definition of Capitalism, Anarchism vs. Capitalism vs. Anti-Government, spiritual Capitalism and the emptiness of modern life, what the Anti-Capitalist movement really wants, and of course: the distinction between Fiat-Capitalism and Bitcoin-Capitalism.

In this episode we dive into… ordinals! Ordinal numbers are serial numbers for satoshi. Every satoshi, which is ¹⁄₁₀₀₀₀₀₀₀₀ of a bitcoin, has an ordinal, and every ordinal has a satoshi. Ordinals are Casey's somewhat crazed project to bring collectable sats, and eventually, digital art and NFTs, to Bitcoin. Strap in, because it's a bewildering ride through a sat bazaar, redolent with the smell of rare and exotic ordinals.  For an intro to ordinal theory, check out this blog post: https://rodarmor.com/blog/ordinal-theory/ You can play with the ordinal block explorer here: https://ordinals.com  A live version of the Bitcoin clock is here: https://ordinals.com/clock  Ordinal theorists congregate on the discord: https://discord.com/invite/87cjuz4FYg  The block explorer and ordinal wallet is open source and developed on GitHub: https://github.com/casey/ord

This week, Erin and Casey bring you a grab bag of Bitcoin-related topics - Tornado Cash crackdown, the upcoming Ethereum merge, and community college micro economics:   - Tornado Cash crackdown and why the government has yet to crack down on Bitcoin  - The Ethereum merge, and why Casey originally thought it was a long-term liability, but now might also turn out to be a short-term liability.  - How to feel sane when everything is crazy. Especially relevant for Bitcoiners.  - Why a community college micro economics course taught by a retired Shell oil exec (shout out to V. Lee Prescott!) had a lasting impact on Casey's world view.  - And more!
