Eric Voskuil: Money, The State, and the Future of Bitcoin

Eric Voskuil is the lead developer on Libbitcoin, a prolific writer on Austrian Economics and what he calls the 'Principles of Cryptodynamics', former Navy fighter pilot, world traveller and highly regarded voice amongst many bitcoiners. After hearing Eric appear on some other podcasts, I was both intrigued and somewhat confused, and decided to reach out to him to try and get some further clarity on his opinions. This is a MONSTER 3.5 hour episode, so I've included some time/topic references below.

Bitcoin is the future of money, that is my firm belief. I use this show to learn more about this phenomenon, and its various implications, from some of the brightest minds in the space, and beyond. I'm not trying to educate or inform anyone, I'm sharing my own journey of attempting to understand bitcoin, and delving in to some of the less obvious, but incredibly profound, aspects of its emergence in the global culture.
