In today's show, I grill @sethforprivacy about #Bitcoin & #cryptocurrency: what it is, how it works, how it derives its value, whether it's anonymous, how mining affects our environment and what it means for #privacy, #censorship & #SelfSovereignty.

And yeah, I use a picture of physical coins - which don't exist! 🙂

https://podcast.firewallsdontstopdragons.com/2022/06/06/cryptocurrency-101/

Okay, so WTH is #Bitcoin, anyway? Who is Satoshi? How does #cryptocurrency even work? How does #blockchain fit into all of this? Is @monero really private?

I'll get into all of this and much more on Monday's show with @sethforprivacy !
