Extended Biography:
Dr. Saifedean Ammous is the author of The Bitcoin Standard: The Decentralized Alternative to Central Banking, the best-selling groundbreaking study of the economics of bitcoin. The book was a pioneer in explaining bitcoin’s value proposition as the hardest money ever discovered, and the only working alternative to national central banks for international payments.
Dr. Ammous holds a PhD in Sustainable Development from Columbia University, where his doctoral thesis studied the economics of biofuels and alternative energy sources. He also holds an MSc in Development Management from the London School of Economics, and a Bachelor of Engineering from the American University of Beirut.
Saifedean.com is a website is intended to showcase Dr. Ammous’ research in studying the economics of bitcoin, and nothing in it should be construed as investment advice. Bitcoin is a sophisticated technology whose ownership requires an understanding of complex technologies and tools. Before deciding whether to invest in bitcoin, you should do your own extensive research into the financial and technical aspects involved. Nothing written in this website should be considered advice related to that decision.

Thanks for having me on your podcast Natalie. ☺

[@DouglasCMills]

Thanks for your channel Natalie, this interview is excellent. Your skills at interviewing are exceptional. It is so good to see the host let the speaker/guest talk and hear their point. ❤

[@meowmeow83]

Great guest and questions! Thank you! We need hard money to fix our consumption driven economy and save the planet.

[@toolegit2quit173]

Just found your channel and am happy to find a great list of long form interviews with some of the most prominent minds in bitcoin. Great to see more women getting into the space. Traditionally money and finance has been the domain of men, and has arguably been gate kept in order to exclude certain groups from financial literacy, not the least of which being women. I think it’s very important to have people like Natalie in this space. female role models will help the subject be more approachable and less intimidating for all the women out there who have been indoctrinated with the nonsensical notion that “women are not good at math” and, by extension, finance. Keep it up Natalie, you’re doing important work !!!

[@nataliebrunell]

Thank you!!

[@MrChuckomatic]

Saif is awesome.. can’t wait to get the fiat standard

[@mackab5179]

Me too

[@cryptoemcee]

Thanx a lot, Natalie! This has been the first Saif`s interview covering his personality, not only his Austrian Economics based thoughts.

[@nataliebrunell]

Thank you so much!!

[@sneekolas]

Natalie I have no clue how your subscriber base is so small but thank you for your consistently awesome content and I hope your channel becomes massive. You deserve it

[@digital_gravity]

Her subscriber base is small because she doesn't promote 💩 coins or wear revealing clothes.

[@t.555]

Hello my beautiful bitcoin family! Wish you all health, love, true happiness and prosperity. Much love!

[@sluggo3slug]

Thank you for this excellent conversation!

[@baptistdepape2499]

Saifedean is solid, changed my life already. The revelation to me is the brilliant young woman, I wish all women would follow her lead.

[@nataliebrunell]

Thank you!

[@cryptogold8753]

Great interview

[@bones23jones]

What an amazing insight about how currency relates to our culture discounting the future.

[@Revolution3030]

Great seeing a podcast with a cool sweet lady in crypto, we need more of this.

[@fenam9405]

Great mind. Great interview

[@pierogalante7734]

merci Natalie, très bonne travaille

[@mmustap3]

And that's the beauty of Austrian economics - you don't need to study it to think like it. You just need common sense.

[@d7r_tv]

Great conversation. Safe is a king

[@helloween76]

Awesome info

[@QDogg]

Liked and subscribed, what else is there to say? Keep it going! 👍🏿

[@simbiotik8480]

Anybody else thinks Natalie is gorgeous?

[@Thebitcoinconsultant]

It seems like Sailors opinion has diverged from the view of bitcoin as a money to digital property. I'd be interested to see if Saif and Michael have a divergence of their view in bitcoin and its future role in society as either a money or a property, or both!

[@Hexbet]

I love the idea of coin stories it just sounds awesome. Like myself I have one of the craziest stories about Bitcoin back in 2011 that blows people's minds when I tell them about it today. It's also the very reason that I am into crypto at the moment. If I had not lost or realize now that I lost so much money by getting rid of all that Bitcoin I would not be as fascinated as I am today. So it's one of those conundrums. Anyway I love the idea for this show and plan to watch all the episodes.

[@mmustap3]

Everybody beware, the comments are being heavily spammed by scammers posing as our great host.

[@TheVitkuz]

Bitcoin Standard is a MUST book for everybody

[@frominside8223]

Why?

[@christianhuth6559]

great interview, Natalie XXX

[@davidtreadwell1]

Big fan of this man but feel like buying him a piece of art or something for his background 😄🤣

[@fmdandrea]

Ok, so Saif lived in Brazil! Now I kinda know why he's so cool! Lol! ;)

[@willo5537]

I don’t usually comment as a rule because my option is not important to anyone but me. But I would like to give my answer to the question he couldn’t answer about women in the space, I think the answer is: TIME. Finally I think a huge quantity of your readers who loved this podcast should read Ayn Rand. I can’t choose a favourite but start with Atlas Shrugged. You will find all Saifedean thinking in that even if it’s by pure chance.

[@cryptogold8753]

Great interview…… buy Bitcoin people and chill.

[@hyperbitcoinizationpod]

The Grey Warrior!

[@jod5834]

💯💯💯👍👌

[@eanerickson8915]

Banks will always want central banks. It is self preservation.

[@alaaabbassi71]

Feels good when even soneone like Saifidean can't answer a question about women

[@Hubbs3of6]

When Bitcoin gets to the 21 million limit, then how will the miners be paid?

[@jessebarton4094]

They get paid by the fees from transactions.

[@ashdraked]

Dang you do Nardwuar-esque research on your guests. How did you find out saif was on a debate show

[@wisemanlionsproductions4653]

Bitcoin might be the one eating Gold lunch.

[@martinlutherkingjr.5582]

RIP headphone viewers. Her mic is too god damn loud!

[@GalaxiePictures]

Maybe a pink bitcoin?LOL

[@SoloUpOkay]

FF 39:00 mins, fiat orgy with nat? FF 35:00 quitting alcohol, quitting drugs, and getting married? LOL

[@mlbonfox8199]

This isn’t gonna age well

[@cryptopriest4723]

The Bitcoin Standard was one of the most boring books that i have ever read in my life.

[@iosaccoleman]

Great interview
