#885 Oil and Gas Will Usher In The Bitcoin Standard Mar 26, 2022

Show notes

This episode is a little different than the usual podcast format. There is no guest. Instead, I will share a couple of thoughts I have around a specific topic. Today, I discuss the recent developments with ExxonMobil and Bitcoin mining, as well as Russia potentially accepting oil sales in Bitcoin. These changes present a monumental disruption to how Bitcoin is viewed on the global stage. ======================= Today’s episode is brought to you by Coinbase Wallet, your key to the world of crypto. Crypto wasn’t made to just buy, sell, and hodl. With Coinbase Wallet, you can do so much more: Collect more NFTs, earn more with DeFi, and trade more than 4,000 tokens. Whether you’re looking to play, stake, spend, or just explore a trending new protocol — Coinbase Wallet is your key to more. Long-time HODLers already know that wallets are a must-have if you want complete control of your crypto. That’s why Coinbase Wallet makes self-custody simple, while providing the safety and security of the most trusted name in crypto. Visit http://coinbase.com/wallet to learn more. ======================= If you’re a regular listener of the podcast, I would bet that two things are true: First: You’re passionate about Web3 and protecting your personal data And two: that you’re a human. If I’m right, then congratulations! You’re entitled to all the benefits of the decentralized web. But there’s a catch: As Web3-enabled tech — like NFTs, smart contracts, and DAOs — drive more elements of our “real world” lives online, proving that you’re a person – without surrendering personal data – becomes exponentially more valuable. And exponentially more difficult. This is why Unstoppable Domains launched Humanity Check. Humanity Check proves that you’re, well, you – without revealing personal data. No matter where you go on the web, you’ll have total control over which apps you want to share data with…and which ones you don’t. Prefer to be completely clouded in mystique?

If you want to feel alive, or at least prove you are, head to http://UnstoppableDomains.com and get your NFT domain with Humanity Check. ======================= Cryptocurrencies offer boundless potential, but how will you protect your crypto?
