  • 094 LaserEyesCards

    Laser Eyes Cards Four of the five Bitcoiners and founders of Laser Eyes Cards join Meyrick for this podcast. Listen in to how they individually fell down the Bitcoin rabbit hole, why meet-up groups, then merchant adoption, could be a cornerstone to Bitcoin’s success. Thanks to Chris for the new tag line: "Normalise, don’t evangelise Bitcoin!". Plus hear how Laser Eyes Cards came about, making spending bitcoin, and using it as a very easy to use everyday currency, which happens to be the hardest sound money that we’ve ever produced; and last but not least, listen to Meyrick’s reaction when he see’s a Laser Eyes Card in action … “Oh WOW!”


    Order an awesome Laser Eyes Card from their gallery now, and you’ll be able to watch your very own laser eyes light up every time you make a contactless/NFC bitcoin payment; BTW they naturally only accept bitcoin payments and ship worldwide https://lasereyes.cards/buy-now If you’d like a bespoke card, or are a designer who would like to list a design for royalties in their gallery, get in touch with them at [email protected]

  • 089 Raahul Choudhary - Meet-up Host

    Raahul Choudhary is an early adopter of BITCOIN. He was introduced to BITCOIN in 2013, not having a financial background, he decided to go down the rabbit hole and discovered the vast potential of decentralisation.

    Being in the trade of diamonds and understanding how traditional finance works he discovered an entirely new way of understanding money and it's history through Bitcoin. This newly emerging community built his passion and curiosity around this new disruptive face of finance, the technology, and provided an inclusive learning experience. 

    The freedom that decentralisation brings to the world inspired him to create awareness and help others understand it better. Sharing this new way of life with others became his motto. 

    Raahul chairs a lot of talk shows and hosts meet-ups all around India to spread awareness on how bitcoin can change the game theory of money.
