Bitcoin: The Game As It Was Meant To Be Played: PukeCookies.com, Assassinations, Ross Ulbricht, How Does Bitcoin Help Poor People, L2 Scaling, and the China Ban

First, we bought PukeCookies.com~! Tell us what we should do with the website. This, of course, leads to a discussion on disrupting the assassination market and Ross Ulbricht of The Silk Road fame.



Then it's onto a listener question: How does Bitcoin help poor people? This includes a discussion on inflation, set monetary rules, dollar-cost averaging, saving in the dollar vs Bitcoin, why someone should invest in Bitcoin instead of altcoins, and whether the politicians who created our system were nefarious.



Then it's on a discussion on Layer 2 (L2) scaling of Bitcoin and whether the recent ban of mining by China was good or bad for Bitcoin.



If you want to dive deeper into how Bitcoin will scale check out Layered Money by Nik Bhatia.



Don't forget to watch Ted Lasso on Apple TV+ and read Thinking In Systems: A Primer by Donella H. Meadows.



Lastly, hit us up on Twitter with any of your questions or just to say hi: Nate, Luc, & the Podcast.
