Description

As the debate about Bitcoin’s energy use rages on, what’s being lost in translation? Are mining companies doing enough to address the problem? Are crypto skeptics missing the broader human rights implications of decentralized money? We go in search of answers. 
But first, a visit to 1827 in Cincinnati, Ohio to learn what one man’s dream of a time-based economy can teach us about humankind’s latest attempt to redefine money. Featuring perspectives from Professor Crispin Sartwell, Professor Brian Lucey, and an interview with Compass Mining CEO Whit Gibbs.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
