About this episode
MP3, Links, and More: http://ymb.tc/tcp8
“Being a Bitcoin Maximalist gives you a rational foundation to evaluate the entire bitcoin space. ...[It's] based on science and economics; it's the opposite of faith. … It's an understanding of network effects, history, game theory, economics and observational evidence (not being an expert in each but knowing they work together)."
So says Ansel Lindner, host of “Bitcoin and Markets” (https://twitter.com/btcmrkts). Ansel is an outspoken Bitcoin maximalist and a minimalist, and he joins me for the eighth coin pod to explain and defend his maximalist and minimalist beliefs. And to be honest, if you don’t wish to become either one, you probably shouldn’t listen to his explanations of both.
If you chose to listen, you should also follow Ansel (https://twitter.com/AnselLindner) and his show (https://twitter.com/btcmrkts) and visit his website: http://www.bitcoinandmarkets.com/
