▎The Bitcoin Brief: What's This Show All About?

 
The Bitcoin Brief is a show hosted by Max and Bitcoin QnA. We cover important updates in the world of bitcoin and open source software. It is our imperative to provide some education along the way too, so that the misfits can expand their knowledge base and become more sovereign as a result.
 
 
 We do this every second week to keep our listeners informed without having to dedicate hours every day to keep on top of developments. We break things down in a simple and fun way and we welcome questions or topic suggestions via Podcasting 2.0 boosts.
 
 
 Thanks for listening you Ungovernable Misfits, we appreciate your continued support and hope you enjoy the shows.



 You can support this episode using your time, talent or treasure.
