Early Bitcoin adopter Dan Held joins us to talk about the energy economics of Bitcoin, the halving, and much more. Always a pleasure to with Dan as he is one of the most important original thinkers in this space. See his essays, especially the 4 part series Planting Bitcoin, about the origins of Bitcoin in the aftermath of the 2008 financial crisis.
