Brandon Quittem comes on to discuss his recent article, "Bitcoin is a Pioneer Species." Brandon is a philosopher and a writer and advisor for Swan Bitcoin. He became famous for his writing "The Mycelium of Money" which compared fungi to Bitcoin in a brilliant way.

The article touches a lot on energy and bitcoin mining (two of my favorite bitcoin topics). We also cover a variety of topics from the incentives around mining, how States will adopt mining and even fun predictions on the future! Renaissance 2.0?

I had an awesome time speaking to Brandon. I hope you enjoy my conversation with him as much as I did and I will see you on the other side!
