Did you know that Bitcoin and blockchain technology have a long and fascinating history dating back to the early 1990s?


Brian De Mint is the author of The Bitcoin Evangelism and was the chief marketing officer for Athenium Blockchain for three years. He is an entrepreneur with 14 years of experience, and he has been investing in bitcoin and the wider crypto market since 2014.


This episode is about the history of bitcoin and blockchain. Brian De Mint learned about the history of bitcoin and blockchain when he was trying to disprove his friends who were interested in it. He became a believer when he realized that bitcoin could be used to fix the unsound money problem. The book, Bitcoin Evangelism, is about how bitcoin can be used to fix the monetary system.


"The true disruption is decentralization."


In this episode, you will learn the following:

1. Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies as a solution to unsound money

2. The potential for blockchain technology to disrupt centralization

3. The history of resistance to adoption for new technologies
