We are joined by Daniel Krawisz, the Director of Research at the Satoshi Nakamoto Institute. Daniel co-founded that organization last year with Michael Goldstein and Pierre Rochard to educate the Bitcoin community on the foundational ideas that led to the creation of Bitcoin. The Satoshi Nakomoto Institute is dedicated to shedding light on the ideological history of Bitcoin and keeping its controversial roots from being marginalized.

Topics discussed included:

- What it means to be a libertarian, crypto-anarchist.

- The perception of Bitcoin and the future of the bitcoin ecosystem

- The viability of alternative currencies
