gm: Fighting Bitcoin Maximalism with Muneeb Ali

Muneeb Ali is another Bitcoin O.G. He's been in the space since 2011 and his project Stacks, formerly Blockstack, pulled off the first SEC-approved token sale for its STX token. But even though Muneeb has become the leading advocate for building dapps on top of the Bitcoin blockchain (as opposed to Ethereum), don't call him a Bitcoin maximalist. He tells Dan Roberts and Jeff Roberts how he fends off maximalists on Twitter, what he'd do if he were Twitter CEO, and how the Stacks ecosystem is growing and proving Bitcoin can be more than just a store of value.
