Guys, it's FINALLY here! The second installment of Conventional Wisdom's bitcoin series: Why you NEED Bitcoin.
Why aren't you all-in on bitcoin yet? Let me hit you with some knowledge!
I debunk many popular myths surrounding bitcoin including its energy use, the comparison to gold, what's backing bitcoin, its inherent value, and much more. My goal is for you to view bitcoin in a new light and ultimately take the Orange Pill.
Episode 5 - Story Time
Have you noticed that most modern movies suck? What do they fundamentally get wrong? Lets discuss.
The fundamental nature of the dollar is to rob the future in attempts to help the present. Unfortunately, that causes a devalued currency, high prices, and insurmountable debt. The dollar is broken at its core. Opt out of a system of debt slavery, weakening currency, and cheap goods by storying your hard work in Bitcoin; a superior money that promises freedom and economic flourishing.
New "From Is to Ought" episode out now.
In this episode Michael is joined by fellow Freedomcaster Samuel Vernon as they interview author and social commentator Gabrielle Bauer. The trio traverses Gabrielle's book "Blindsight is 2020" and discuss the ethics, philosophies, and cultural factors and figures in this retrospective tour of the mandate mindset that took hold in the wake of COVID-19. Be sure to download this episode's artifact for more information on Gabrielle, the key figures discussed in the podcast, and some of the research behind "safety culture".
