The Bitcoin Podcast

The bitcoin and open blockchain community is drowning in corporate propaganda. Objective, independent and strong voices that are not beholden to promoting special interests can make a huge difference in the narrative. And well, if you are intending on listening to this weeks episode, there is a good chance you’ve probably seen some of his work already and you realize how much time, money, and effort goes into producing original content with an independent perspective. Andreas Antonopoulos comes on our show to complete the trilogy of appearances to give us some peace of mind in an otherwise crazy last couple of weeks.

Devcon3 is a wrap! We successfully avoided Corrupted cops, locals & crypto gangs. Instead we had dinner and rubbed shoulders with the best of them. We drunk plenty of alcohol (after all, we ARE in Cancun), and learned a lot. Again, here are our takeaways, but this time from the last two days of Devcon3 as we provide you our recap part 2. Which talks you should watch/attend and/or miss? Who lived up to expectations and who disappointed?...and most importantly, which announcements were game changing. For everyone that met up with us from our slack, and who recognized us from Twitter -- we thank you! We will see you next year!

We’re in the early days of a technological breakthrough that has the potential for enormous societal impact, but challenges remain. As we spent the past week in Cancun, Mexico, we cut the roundtable short, but we bring Stephen McKeon into the studio to have a healthy discussion. Stephen is an expert in topics related to corporate finance, including venture capital, private equity, entrepreneurial finance, mergers and acquisitions. At the University of Oregon, he is an assistant professor of finance. He also works in the Finance and Securities Analysis Center in the Lundquist College of Business.
