Free Thoughts, Ep. 212: Your World on the Blockchain (with Brock Cusick)
Channel: Libertarianism.org
Date: 2017-11-10

Brock Cusick joins us this week to talk about the decentralized blockchain technology that bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies run on, and about bitcoin itself: how does bitcoin work? What makes it valuable?

Why is there a finite amount of bitcoin? What happens when all of the bitcoin is mined? What’s next for cryptocurrencies and blockchain technology? Will the government step in to regulate this? Can it?

Show Notes and Further Reading

Back in 2014 we invited Timothy Lee on the show to give us a primer on bitcoin: https://www.libertarianism.org/media/free-thoughts-podcast/is-bitcoin-future-money
