Without a doubt, Alex is one of the most important voices in the entire bitcoin space. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve told angry ignorant, bitcoin, haters, spouting, energy fud to search out, read and listen to Alex Gladstein‘s work. Thank you Alex for all you do the entire, bitcoin universe owes you a debt of gratitude.

[@IRLC]

By far the most aligned voice to my lens for Bitcoin. Stays out of the “fake libertarian” conservative apologetic BS. Completely dissects and destroys ignorant left leaning criticisms on the energy front. Makes a global case for Bitcoin AS CURRENCY. He focuses on actionable topics. He’s a fucking gem.

[@netmommy4]

It’s incredible that Bitcoin is changing the world in so many different ways.

[@LiborTinka]

It is because so many things relied on leaky monetary system that discourages saving. It's like computer revolution with the invention of the transistor. It was possible to build electronics without them, using relays and vacuum tubes, but these systems were unreliable, slow and expensive. With current monetary system, it's so inefficient that it's impossible to even estimate the losses. It's like a steam-powered plane meeting a swarm of drones.

The bookcases look like they merge together perfectly like you're in the same room.

Anyone understand the name of the lady at 54:57 ?

[@davidmichael115]

[@alberteinstein3650]

CFX will outperform BTC 😉

[@ColinRDavis]

Yesss!! Bitcoin going up is good for the entire market. My largest holding is also xrp, and I actually root for bitcoin to do well, because history shows xrp lags behind it.

[@user-gw7ps3gt6p]
