  • An Article Read: Kool-Aid

    On this episode of The Nyc & Griff Show, Nyc reads an article published by Bitcoin Magazine by El Salvador president, Nayib Bukele. Could we all be drinking the Kool- Aid? Maybe we should take a hint from Nayib and look around at what’s happening. Think.

    • #0055 - Bitcoin Doesn't Care Pt. 2

      On this episode of The Nyc & Griff Show, we continue on several topics which all lead to the same end ... Bitcoin doesn’t care! We can talk all day about the impact Bitcoin can have on the world and how and when we think it will happen, but at the end of the day people will simply transact on the network, miners will hash those transactions into the blockchain, and node operators will verify the proof of work. In an ideal world, money is sound, and people focus on real value and creativity.

    • #0054 - Bitcoin Doesn't Care

      On this episode of The Nyc & Griff Show, we kick off the show with a few thoughts on dopamine and then move into the type of person someone might call a Bitcoiner. Could there be any similarities or remanence of divine intervention in the creation of Bitcoin? The Twitter files is also an interesting topic that impacts how we as humans interact and perceive what’s happening in the world, so we chat about this a bit too. 😁

    • #0053 - Sound Money & Human Interactions

      On this episode of The Nyc & Griff Show, we dive straight into sales – our experiences. Human interactions are so strange. Could they really be hindered by broken money? Sound money is for sure a solid foundation, in terms of personal financial stability, but will not cure the problems of bad budgeting. Have you accounted for yours? Sound money ultimately leads to a lowering of time preference and an increase in God given human creativity. These topics and more!

    • #0051 - Digital Marketplaces & Other Factors

      What's this episode about?

      On this episode of The Nyc & Griff Show, we get things kicked off with a fresh business idea from Griff on how to link college athletics and Bitcoin and the Lightning Network. How impactful is the Lightning Network in terms of payments? Could it really fundamentally change how we transact with one another? Chasing Bitcoin down the rabbit hole may bring you to a conclusion that everything should be decentralized, but to what extent do creators and users have personal responsibility? What other factors play into how people make decisions with their lives every single day? These topics and many more on this episode.
