In this episode Cedric sits down with Erik Cason to discuss sovereignty, cryptography, modernity, karma, nihilism, and how Bitcoin has decrypted the most spectacular form of The Political that exists; the political nature of money itself.

Erik Cason is a Crypto-anarchist, cypherpunk, iconoclast, and makarismos.

"Don’t let anyone fool you. Bitcoin is the most political object on the planet. Why? Because no state can stop it, and it is an existential threat to every fiat money in existence today. It is the promise of money totally severed from the state—the most political objective."
