Podcasts: BCB067_BITCOIN & THE MIDDLE CLASS: A Discussion w/ Bitcoin Magazine đź”— 2 years ago

Blue Collar Bitcoin Podcast

Dan & Josh sit down with Bitcoin Magazine (Chris Alaimo and Q) to chat about a 3 part series they've recently published in Bitcoin Magazine: “Fixing Broken Fiat Plumbing: A firefighters Take on Today's Precarious Economic Mechanics and How Bitcoin Steps In As An Empowerment Tool For the Middle Class"

In this hour they cover a number of topics both in and beyond the articles, including:

  • Currency debasement’s impact on wage earners
  • Why QE is often poorly understood by Bitcoiners
  • Debt vs GDP spirals and what a “soft default” looks like for nation states
  • Why we shouldn't be rooting for global economic meltdown
