This week on High Hash Rate, Dan and Mike speak with "Normie" Dave

Dave is a class of 2020-2021 Bitconer who lives in New Zealand. Despite being active on "Bitcoin X" and more or less identifying as a Bitcoin Maximalist, Dave is a "toxic normie". We chat about Bitcoin, how it has impacted his life, how it's viewed in New Zealand, and how he squares his center left ideology with the radically different views which are disproportionately shared among Bitcoiners in the digital realm.

This week on High Hash Rate, audio clips salvaged from the Rock Paper Bitcoin episode.

We recorded an episode with Fundamentals and Business Cat from the Rock Paper Bitcoin Podcast. Unfortunately there was an issue with the audio upload from our podcast platform and much of the episode was lost forever. However, some of the episode was salvaged and we did our best to cut together the audio clips of our conversation.
