In this episode, Brad teams up with Alex Stanczyk — an avid Bitcoiner, a daily Bitcoin chat host on Twitter spaces and a former gold and silver trader who now works as private team MD at Bitcoin savings company Swan Bitcoin. Alex's Bitcoin backstory as someone in those capacities and who only recently had an epiphany about Bitcoin is teeming with interesting tidbits.Â
What's more, he's a former co-host of "The Gold Chronicles with Alex Stanczyk and Jim Rickards" podcast with popular American lawyer and economist Jim Rickards. Tune in and listen to him and Brad talk about all things Bitcoin, how he landed a role at Swan Bitcoin, his relationship with Pickard, the concept of "alien money," and more!
