On this episode of Magic Internet Money, host Brad Mills invites tech entrepreneur and Bitcoin maximalist Giacomo Zucco onto the show to talk in detail about altcoins and how they’re changing the crypto landscape. Zucco offers much of his financial and technical knowledge about blockchain technology to explain his preference for Bitcoin over altcoins. Zucco discusses with Brad their experience with Bitcoiners that began using their reputation to pump up the value of altcoins and then dump them at a peak value. The duo discuss the fallout from these events and the importance of honesty and consistency when you’re a voice in the cryptocurrency community.
