The Bitcoin Infinity Show

In this episode we talk a lot about technology, starting with internet protocols, privacy, self-custody, cloud computing, then moving on to learning about Liquid and what makes this solution unique and trustworthy. Our discussion then takes a philosophical turn as we touch on topics such as the bitcoin ethos, self-sovereignty, and the subjectivity of hyperbitcoinization.
