My First Attempt Explaining Bitcoin to My Mom and Her Best Friend
About this episode
While visiting South Africa, I awkwardly tried to explain Bitcoin to my mom and her best friend, Wendy. We talked about inflation, the basics of money, Nixon taking the dollar off the gold standard, and why Bitcoin is a better alternative. I left out mentioning ETFs, and I incorrectly said that Bitcoin is a new technology. Bitcoin is NOT a technology, it’s a protocol. Please share your tips for how I can improve orange-pilling seniors
