Listen Later

"Bitcoin is powering a green energy revolution... bringing financial inclusion to Africa... and saving many in Venezuela..."

Thor Holt (your host and founder at www.energyleaders.io ) tries the 'Bitcoin is bad for the environment, isn't it?' (FUD) move, and gets properly schooled by Dominic!

We also cover, the strange anti email spam history that begat  Proof Of Work, including some cool Satoshi Nakamoto detail... we get exasperated about Bitcoin and the 'stupid culture war', and agree that Bitcoin is a force for good against actual war and environmental damage... and finally, look at how Scotland could successfully become independent from Westminster... El Salvador with Whisky anyone?

He's author of the books, Bitcoin: The Future of Money?, Daylight Robbery: How tax Shaped our Past and Will Change Our Future, and Life After The State He presents the podcast and youtube show, Stuff That Interests Me Podcast , speaking with concise wisdom and wit on various economic and crypto topics of the moment.

Nothing on this podcast is financial advice. However, Please consider tipping the show, because it is a labour of love which takes many hours per show - research, communications with guests, recording, edit, show set up/notes etc.
