Bitcoin currently sits just below $4,900.
I’m very close to not mentioning Bitcoin Cash when I talk about the bitcoin price but I’ll just mention again that Bitcoin Cash is currently near $300.
Giving a total of about $5,200 for those that have been holding bitcoin since the fork on August 1st.
On my most recent trip and after having spoken at three different cryptocurrency conferences in four days on two continents the team from Wirex tracked my exhausted self down at a train station in London on my way to a bitcoin pow wow in Monaco.
It’s quite a casual interview with a wide array of topics that you might like.
We talked about the origins of the name, “The Dollar Vigilante,” as well as the basics of what it is we talk about at TDV. And how I got into TDV after my internet company got burned so badly by the central bank created tech bubble in the 90s that I started learning about how the system works and that eventually led me to trying to take down central banks.
I also talked about how much easier it is to run a company where I pay my employees in bitcoin, especially because many work in different countries or travel on a consistent basis.
We talk about how blockchain and bitcoin has enabled, for the first time in a long time, prosperity and given people the ability to protect themselves from the scam that is fiat money, inflation and central banking.
