De pleuris is losgebarsten. Europa gaat in lockdown, de beurzen zijn bloedrood en zelfs bitcoin is niet veilig voor de fallout. We proberen in deze aflevering sense te maken van alle madness en dat is niet makkelijk. Zeker als twee van onze presentatoren zelf ook al ziek zijn.

Episode 28: The emperor has no clothes Mar 04, 2020

Show notes

Ook de Bitcoin wereld staat in het teken van de Corona Uitbraak. De economische gevolgen zullen groot zijn. Maar hoe dat uitpakt voor Bitcoin valt nog te bezien. Wat we wel weten is dat de overheid en dan. Met name het RIVM liever aan de slag gaat met het voorkomen van paniek dan het verspreiden van zinvolle informatie. Het is tragisch maar ook een voorbeeld van de onkunde van de overheid. The Emperor has no clothes!
