Inside Bitcoin’s Early Days | Pete Rizzo & Jason Yanowitz
About this episode
In today's episode, I'm thrilled to have Pete Rizzo and Jason Yanowitz by my side as we journey back to the pioneering days of Bitcoin, spanning 2011-2014. We're unpacking everything from the inception of BitInstant, my own encounter with the law, to the seismic Mt. Gox breach, and the onset of the contentious block size debates. Jason, Pete and I offer a behind-the-scenes glance, sharing personal anecdotes and insights from our early involvement in Bitcoin's evolution. We delve into the cultural rift between the Bitcoin purists and the wider crypto sphere, while also casting an eye forward to the burgeoning realm of ordinals. Tune in for a treasure trove of stories and forward-looking thoughts!
