Further Discussion: Stephan Livera

Stephan Livera is the host of the popular 'Stephan Livera Podcast' and a highly-regarded educator in the bitcoin space. He's interviewed some of the top people in the industry, and has recently transitioned to working on bitcoin full-time. I thought it would be fun to speak with him about his experience as a podcaster and what it felt like to leave his 'normal job' and dive head-first into his true passion. Enjoy!

Eric Voskuil: Money, The State, and the Future of Bitcoin

Eric Voskuil is the lead developer on Libbitcoin, a prolific writer on Austrian Economics and what he calls the 'Principles of Cryptodynamics', former Navy fighter pilot, world traveller and highly regarded voice amongst many bitcoiners. After hearing Eric appear on some other podcasts, I was both intrigued and somewhat confused, and decided to reach out to him to try and get some further clarity on his opinions. This is a MONSTER 3.5 hour episode, so I've included some time/topic references below. Enjoy! - 0-30: Libbitcoin 30: Bitcoin's security model 1.20: How debt and the current monetary system work + Tax rules everything 1.55: Anarchy + Military Service 2.18: Approach to life + Importance of Trade 2.43: Lightning + Full monetization of BTC chain and implications - More from Eric: TWITTER: https://twitter.com/evoskuil GITHUB: https://github.com/evoskuil More from me: TWITTER: http://bit.ly/2P7PUjA FACEBOOK: http://bit.ly/30lRjUB INSTAGRAM: http://bit.ly/30r7IqY YOUTUBE: http://bit.ly/2TDeMy9 MEDIUM: http://bit.ly/2Zk0Dex

Further Discussion: Rui Gomes

Rui Gomes is the lead software engineer at OpenNode, a bitcoin payment processor with lightning integration. Flexible and easy-to-use payment processors are essential for growing the bitcoin economy, and bringing traditional businesses into the space. Combined with lightning, they represent the possibility for payment solutions that are orders of magnitude better than what is available from the incumbent players. As a result, I thought it would be interesting to speak with Rui to pick his brain, learn more about developments in the space, and ask him about the difference between what he and the team at OpenNode are building, in comparison to something like BTCPay Server (Spoiler: They are different).

Further Discussion: Hass McCook

Hass McCook is a civil engineer who has become a valuable resource in bringing clarity to the issue of Bitcoin's impact on the environment. This issue is often misrepresented in the mainstream media, so it is very important that objective analysis is use to understand it, and that it is considered in the proper context. Hass is also a very 'devout' bitcoiner with lots of interesting views, so I thought it would be fun to get together for a chat. Enjoy.

Dr Shawn Baker MD: The Carnivore Diet

Dr. Shawn Baker is a bad motherfucker. Orthopedic surgeon, Air Force vet, World Record holder, Strongman Champion, and most recently, outspoken advocate of a diet based primarily on red meat, also known as ‘The Carnivore Diet’, which also happens to be the title of his upcoming book (November 2019). I’ve had a life-long interest in nutrition, fitness and health, and have been wanting to speak with Shawn since I saw his appearance on the Joe Rogan Experience podcast. Interestingly, there is also a large contingent of people in the Bitcoin community who follow and advocate for the Carnivore Diet, so I thought some of them may be interested in hearing from Shawn also. Enjoy!
