Never Too Late To Bitcoin

Babel Hodl - A Pleb's Journey to Discovering Bitcoin


Listen Later

Join host Kathleen Jobin and this week's guest, who goes by the online name Babel Was An Inside Job, a fellow Bitcoin Twitter pleb. How was Babel orange pilled? Where does he get his convictions from? And what was his journey down the rabbit hole?

 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • Because he had an hour or so of intense time with them, Babel would ask patients about anything including Bitcoin 
  • Low time preference is working hard now for a payoff later. It is about putting in the work and understanding that things you put a lot of time into will in general be better than the things we rush to build. 
  • Babel see’s Bitcoin as the digital gold made by the millennial generation. 
  • When you say you can't buy the network we have, is because I and my neighbour and El Salvadorians run their nodes.
  • The network that made Bitcoin secure couldn't be re-created for anywhere near the original cost, that’s why other coins haven't been able to catch up. 
  • Bitcoin is protection against inflation. And it’s available to everyone. Bitcoin is the most secure network in the world. You put your value in it for yourself and your kids and it is safe.
  • Every single thing that any other coin can do, it's something that Bitcoin can do. They're just highlighting it and pushing it to the front to make it look sexy until when the bear market hits.

    BEST MOMENTS

    ‘The more value I provide to someone, the more value I get’ 

    'Bitcoin incentivizes providing real value to the society'

    'Buy nice not twice’

    'If you want to recreate Bitcoin, you couldn't'

    'Bitcoin survives, everything else doesn't'

    'Bitcoin knows what it wants to be. The rest of us just have to learn about it'
