Episode description

In 2021, high school boys on TikTok were pumping meme coins and discovering (then misapplying) the concept of exponential compounding. Today, with the benefit of hindsight, we can learn a lot about what crypto's rapid rise and fall might mean about money.

Plus, we’re going down the rabbit hole of the competing theories about what money really is: Why do we all agree it has value? What happens if the government keeps making more of it, and is crypto the wrong solution for the right problem?
