On tonight’s episode of “The Crypto Show,” we talk to our first-hour guest journalist and author Brian Patrick Eha about his new book “How Money Got Free: bitcoin and the Fight for the Future of FInance,” We discuss his background in journalism and how he first got into crypto,, and then he details the circumstances surrounding the first article about bitcoin that he ever wrote, for which he interviewed the likes of Charlie Shrem, Ira Miller, Erik Voorhees, Roger Ver, and others during their days at BitInstant, and which article became the basis for his current book. We discuss media bias and distortion when it comes to bitcoin and major bitcoin players, and we have a conversation about the philosophy and economics behind bitcoin. We then fast-forward to get his take on the future of bitcoin in light of the block-size issue and other things, and as well as on the viability and usefulness of altcoins.
In the second hour we interview Joel Valuenzela of Dash Force, one of the new Dash “sub-DAO’s,” and its related Youtube channel, “Dash Force News.” We discuss his long-standing Austrian School/sound money background as well as his entry into crypto, and he explains why is such a strong believer in Dash and why and how he got more directly involved in the Dash digital cash project. He turns us on to Bitcart.io, in which you can buy Amazon.com giftcards for a 15% discount but only using Dash, and he informs us about the number and types of businesses that already accept Dash, a surprisingly large number. He also briefly details how he lives on Dash alone. Danny also joins us from his second trip across the country to promote Dash and crypto to cannabis businesses, while he gives us a brief rundown of the current cannabis conference he is attending.
