TBP31 - Off the Transparency Chain Dec 21, 2015

Show notes

Every day we buy products that impact our planet. Every product and business is different, but rarely do we have the information we need to make positive choices about what to buy. Enter, Jessi Baker, the founder of Provenance, which is building on the blockchain that presents a paradigm shift for business and society: from one where you need to generate trust in your brand and product, to one where trust can be implicit. Is there anything bitcoin can't do? Holy cow. This week we get her on the show to chat about the importance of supply chain transparency.

TBP30 - Bottoms Up 3 Dec 14, 2015

Show notes

Every 10th episode we get together with some friends, drink drinks, and chat about bitcoin. Enjoy all the benefits of pouring a nice adult beverage into a functionally designed vessel of your choice, whilst chatting about finance, all without the repercussions, like the frequent 24-hour hangovers, the unsafe hook-ups, etc. Our homie Andrew joins us on the show who has NO CLUE what bitcoin is. We educate him and Marcello has to defend himself on why knowing the identity of the probable creator of bitcoin is important. Remember, sweetness is perceived more on the tongue than in the nose, so press play and drink us in, folks.

TBP29 - Take the Power Back Dec 07, 2015

Show notes

If you use Bitcoin, you definitely know that Bitcoin needs to become more practical. It’s great for cross border transactions but it doesn’t seem ready for the mainstream. What if I told you there was a way to buy things with bitcoin without having to wait for merchants to accept Bitcoin? That's right, Tap & Pay using Bitcoin at any NFC-enabled point-of-sale terminal on the planet, with Plutus, suckas! Feel like you're in a dream? Well let us pinch you! This is why it’s time for a new era of payments. Plutus merges both blockchain technology and existing international NFC infrastructure to bring contactless Bitcoin payments into the mainstream. CEO of Plutus, Filip Martinka, stops by to let you know how the revolution will be televised. We also name our Bitcoin MVP of 2015 award.

TBP28 - Modern Day Gold Rush Nov 30, 2015

Show notes

The inevitable and unavoidable Thanksgiving food coma hit all three of us this week but we still came back to give you guys a mini-sode this week. Real-time bitcoin-to-gold exchange and banking 2.0 Vaultoro has reached a significant $2 million milestone in gold trading volume, so to celebrate we grabbed CEO Joshua Scigala, who joins us on the show this week as we dive further into his personal bitcoin story. Gold is a great way to preserve wealth, but it is hard to move around. You do need some kind of alternative, and Bitcoin fits the bill, baby!

TBP27 - London Calling Nov 23, 2015

Show notes

We revisit the adult industry this week by featuring upscale London escort agency Fallen Angels. We had a chat with Miss Silvia's trusted colleague Coco, who provided us with great insight on how this industry + bitcoin go hand in hand. The benefits of using Bitcoin were greater for them then the traditional method so much so that they decided to make it their preferred method of payment. Who says humanity’s oldest industry shouldn’t be the one to propel Bitcoin into the future? Giggity Giggity Goo!

TBP25 - The $199 Incentive Nov 09, 2015

Show notes

Back in 1999, the price tag of $199 could have secured you a Sega Dreamcast. Fast forward 16 years later, that same price point can acquire a physical bitcoin wallet the size of a credit card. Integrated with a little screen, a camera, a fingerprint sensor (yes, biometric authentication) and a few buttons, Case wallet is capable of executing transactions by itself. CEO Melanie Shapiro swings by to talk about the product and the usual ridiculous shenanigans you come to know and love. Episode 25 baby! Strap in.

TBP24 - Betting On Bitcoin Nov 02, 2015

Show notes

This week we revisit the Mike Tyson ATM fiasco but instead of talking about it, we be about it. Peter Klamka, CEO of Bitcoin Direct, said Tyson is popular in several demographic groups — and his partnership has the potential to bring a whole swath of new users to bitcoin. We test this theory by inviting him into the think tank to get a first-hand account at his statements. In addition, we get ambushed by Blythe Meowsters! Oh, and bitcoin’s price is going bonkers. To the moon!

TBP23 - It’s a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad Bitcoin World Oct 26, 2015

Show notes

MadBitcoins is a uniquely styled cryptocurrency news resource and we bit his style. Hard. No bad blood though as he comes on the show and we yuck it up about starting a platform such as ours and what it takes to succeed as a successful media outlet. In addition, hot topics of discussion range from sidechains, Blythe ‘Bluth Misters’ Masters, and why Cleveland Brown would be a good bitcoin celebrity endorser.
