In this episode I am joined by my friend Q to discuss why I think Bitcoin is what's important. My guest Q agrees that Bitcoin is the best store of value he argues that there is value in other projects. While we do not see eye to eye on this topic it was interesting to get another perspective, and have an open-minded conversation. Ultimately, the market will decide and in the long run I believe Bitcoin will be what is around in 100 years. I'm grateful that Bitcoiners are exposing many of the scams in the space and still strongly believe that the best way for someone to learn is through experiencing pain. Thus allowing people to make their own decisions because pain is a great teacher and one that will help guide humans to make better choices moving forward. That said, I would like to see if web 5 can take all the use cases of web 3 and that hasn't been proven. Who knows how it plays out but like I said on this podcast many times I'm putting my money on btc. (None of this is financial advice and everyone should do their own research before investing in anything, especially cryptocurrency) Thanks for listening!
