Episode 2 of 10,000 Satoshis — the podcast about Bitcoiners in Minnesota, by Bitcoiners in Minnesota.

In this episode, JoeFi sits down with Brandon Quittem — writer, speaker, traveler, mushroom guy, and the force behind the rebirth of the Minneapolis Bitcoin meetup. Recorded live(ish) from O’Shaughnessy Distilling, we go deep into Brandon’s journey from suburban entrepreneur to global nomad to early Swan Bitcoin team member.

Along the way, we talk about:

How the Minneapolis Bitcoin meetup got started and grew

Brandon’s travels (and his deep love for durian)

His viral essays like Mycelium of Money and Bitcoin is a Pioneer Species

Thoughts on the current Bitcoin landscape, public companies, and is the 4 year cycle dead. 

And how to spot (and avoid) scammers in the space

This is the kind of conversation you don’t get to have during quick chats at a meetup — and that’s exactly why this podcast exists.
