CryptoQuikRead_264 - A Man Warned is Half Saved [beautyon_] Jun 28, 2019

Show notes

Another excellent piece by @beautyon_ and discussion on the nature of Bitcoin's uncontestable monetary standard and what it means for our future. Its not volatility or the risks of a scarce monetary supply, "The danger is being left out of Bitcoin." You have been warned.

Plus I do a short follow-up and general thanks to the BTCMedia and BitcoinMagazine crew for such an awesome Bitcoin2019 conference! Had more fun than should be allowed, lol!

CryptoQuikRead_262 - The Island of Stone Money [Milton Friedman] Jun 20, 2019

Show notes

Does money need some alternative utility? Is there an example of virtual money that could be hundreds of years old? Today we read about one of the most interesting analogies to the nature and value of Bitcoin in the piece, "The Island of Stone Money" by Milton Friedman. Made available by the Hoover institute and published in 1991.

CryptoQuikRead_261 - The God Protocols [Nick Szabo] Jun 19, 2019

Show notes

"Imagine the ideal protocol. It would have the most trustworthy third party imaginable — a deity who is on everybody's side. All the parties would send their input to this god. God would reliably determine the results and return the output. In addition, God, being the ultimate in confessional discretion, would ensure that no party would learn anything more about the other party's input than they could learn from their own input and the output." - Nick Szabo

Another great piece by Szabo about the implications of a multi-party virtual computer and the incredible possibilities that such a protocol could open up. With amazing foresight, Szabo wrote this piece in 1997, detailing many of the trade-offs and complications in creating a shared system just like Satoshi's. Is Bitcoin The God Protocol he hoped to see?

Don't forget to check out the collection at the Nakamoto Institute & Szabo's Unenumerated blog:

GuysTake_019 - Libra Doesn't Compete with Bitcoin, But it Might Kill Ripple Jun 18, 2019

Show notes

All the buzz is about FacebookCoin, I mean FacePalmCoin, I mean Libra today with the release of the testnet and Libra.org giving much sought after details on the new protocol and what they seek to accomplish with it. The big question, can it do any of what it says, and what other projects does it compete with really? We read numerous twitter posts, including a great thread by Caitlin Long, tweets from Andreas, details sourced by Jameson Lopp, and more in today's Guy's Take episode.
