Episode description

Last time out, we finished recording early and had a bit of spare time. We could think of nothing to say to each other! So, we put out a tweet to see if anyone was up for a pleb chat, and I’m delighted to say we got Crispy (www.twitter.com/bi_t_crispy)

With zero planning and zero agenda, what you get is a totally natural conversation, and it turns out, Crispy’s a top bloke...but then, he is a bitcoiner, so...

* Win 30,000 Sats *

Crispy is also about to have his 2nd child, so we have a competition for you. Leave a comment on this episode on Fountain, guessing the block height when the baby is born. If you have the closest guess, Crispy, Brendo and I will each give you 10,000 sats.

Rules at the end of the pod.

We discuss:

The various contributing factors that led Crispy to Bitcoin (including a monsoon in Vientiane)
Bitcoin being his biggest catalyst for a career change
Why curious generalists are naturally attracted to Bitcoin
Being orange-pilled by mistake
Why no-one moves on from Bitcoin
Believing in shared truths
Money being a communication tool
Starting to engage with bitcoiners in real life
Underdogs
Humans adopting tools that help them co-ordinate
Bitcoin only Telegram
