Kurt is joined again by Chris Guida, long-time Bitcoin enthusiast and co-host of The Multiversity Project. In this episode Kurt and Chris discuss the prevailing zeitgeist of capitalism and anti-capitalism, how personal development and responsibility fit into that picture, how the structure of organisations is likely to change in the future, about how companies like Google already give their employees 20% of their hours to work on whatever project they like, and how cryptocurrency enables similar experimentation with business models.

The Future of Decentralised Organisations - Chris Guida

In this episode, Kurt tells a story about how he lost a lot of bitcoin, and how it taught him lessons about being more conscious and showing proper respect for money. Chris relates it to how security problems in cryptocurrency systems lead them to become much stronger, as knowledge becomes more common and developers create more innovative solutions.

Chris Guida - Anti Fragile Systems

For a long time, people in the Bitcoin community have hoped that it could reach mass adoption, that everyone would start using it and abandon fiat currency. That hasn't happened yet. Is it possible that a multinational corporation could take this technology and use their existing user base to introduce it in a way that's user friendly, and dominate the whole market? And if they do, what's the worst that could happen? Let's talk about Facebook's proposed coin, the Libra.  Purchase a Trezor to keep your crypto safe: https://trezor.cryptonomics.space Please upvote on Steemit: https://www.steemit.com/@cryptonomics1  Watch on BitTube: https://bit.tube/theparadiseparadox Website: https://cryptonomics.space  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/cryptonomics.space  YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/TheParadiseParadox

Facebook Crypto World Domination - The Libra

The total crypto market cap has gone up from $140 B to nearly $170 B over the last month. A lot of people out there are skeptical. They say the price is going to crash, the market is still manipulated, it's a dead cat bounce. Other people say "look at all this doubt, people are wary, the market isn't coming back." It seems like a lot of people out there still don't understand market cycles. Disbelief is a part of the cycle, and it might be a very positive one. How can you turn their skepticism to your advantage?  Purchase a Trezor to keep your crypto safe: https://trezor.cryptonomics.space Please upvote on Steemit: https://www.steemit.com/@cryptonomics1  Watch on BitTube: https://bit.tube/theparadiseparadox Website: https://cryptonomics.space  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/cryptonomics.space  YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/TheParadiseParadox

They Don't Believe in Cryptocurrency

There's a lot to know when it comes to Bitcoin and cryptocurrency, but a lot of people just want to know the basics - how can I buy it and what am I even meant to do with it? In this episode, Kurt explains how to buy Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, by purchasing from a regular exchange in your country, arranging a purchase on localbitcoins.com, buying from a decentralised exchange such as Bisq, or buying in person. He also explains the opportunities after you buy your coins - store them and hope the price goes up, trade them for other tokens to speculate or use, or use them for purchases such as Amazon gift cards - or illicit goods on the dark net.

How To Buy Bitcoin & What To Do With It

Many cryptocurrency-based sites have popped up over the last 3 years, giving content creators a chance to make money from their art. Steemit gives bloggers a chance to earn some cash, and there are several sites based on the Steem platform - DTube for videos, DSound for podcasts, songs or other audio, Dmania for memes, Utopian for open-source programmers, and even Steem Monsters the trading card game. There's also Bit.Tube, which is a very professional site for video creators and viewers, offering the Tube token. Source Independent is a blockchain project by master shaman Hamilton Souther, with the aim of helping musicians get reimbursed for their creative efforts. Will cryptocurrency present a future full of art and creativity? Will artists have the courage to try something different?

Crypto For Content Creators

Joël Valenzuela is known for his work with the Dash Force public outreach program, delivering presentations, planning conferences and other events. Valenzuela writes for Dash Force News and also oversees the content creation and distribution. Joël is also known for being a man who lives solely off cryptocurrency - specifically Dash. In this clip, Joël explains his experience of seeing the Mexican peso collapse and be revalued as a child, his love for freedom, his interest in precious metals, and how that helped him understand Bitcoin when he first saw it.

Joël Valenzuela - When The Peso Collapsed

Dash has outperformed the cryptocurrency market over the last month, rising from $79 to $120. For people not familiar with Dash, rises in price always seem unusual, but for those who follow it closely they know that good news is always coming out. After there was a 51% attack on ETC, there was a lot of uncertainty in many smaller crypto projects. Bitcoin and Ethereum are big enough to make such attacks impractical, but for the rest of the market, they may be exposed to this exploit. Dash is working on a solution in the form of Chainlocks, using the Dash masternodes to prevent doublespends, making the system more secure and give faster confirmations. The Dash Core Group has publically released the code for Evolution, the wallet which Dash supporters hope will make crypto more user friendly, looking more like PayPal or Venmo than Bitcoin, allowing merchants to integrate into the wallet and offer discounts, increasing their conversions. However, it seems the main reason that Dash has increased in price over the last month is something more related to short-term trading. Binance added two pairs - Dash/BNB and Dash/USDT. That means traders on Binance are now using those pairs to try to gain an advantage and make more money.

Why Is Dash Pumping? April 2019

A lot of people have been saying for years that the US dollar is going to collapse, and that will cause another global financial crisis. That's why you should hold onto your crypto for dear life. Is that really the case? USD is still the official currency of other countries such as Ecuador, East Timor, El Salvador and Zimbabwe. It's used for $100Bs of oil trade every year. Hundreds of millions of people pay their taxes in dollars, and despite the Federal Reserve and US Treasury printing trillions, it's still valuable. The IMF has plans to create a system of e-dollars, and as early as 2008, political figures were discussing a new currency system known as Bretton Woods 2 - so there's always a way out. Will the dollar collapse?

US Dollar Will Never Collapse

In the world of cryptocurrency, a lot of investors know this word: HODL. It started as a typo in a hastily typed post on bitcointalk, in which a fellow was telling everyone NOT to sell their bitcoin but hold on. Later it turned into a backronym, "hold on for dear life". Now, whenever the market goes down, people bring on the old memes telling people not to panic, not to sell and above all, HODL. I'm here to tell you why that's really stupid.   Purchase a Trezor to keep your crypto safe: https://trezor.cryptonomics.space Please upvote on Steemit: https://www.steemit.com/@cryptonomics1  Watch on BitTube: https://bit.tube/theparadiseparadox Website: https://cryptonomics.space  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/cryptonomics.space  YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/TheParadiseParadox

HODL is for chumps

Many people have lost money in cryptocurrency, either from oversight, malice or just not knowing how to prepare for market madness. One fellow asked me the other day about how to deal with the pain of seeing his portfolio go from millions to... not so much. While I'm yet to make and lose my first million, I do have a few ideas about emotional intelligence. Here are Kurt's tips for a happy loss, explained in detail in this episode: 1. Count your blessings 2. Find the lessons in the pain 3. Feel deeply 4. Embrace the journey 5.

How To Lose A Million Dollars

Luis Fernando Mises is known as the founder of the Emancipated Human website and podcast, as a healer using plant medicine such as huachuma, and as a consultant on servant leadership - helping bosses learn to serve their employees and create a productive workplace. In a recent project management engagement with the Federal Reserve, Luis was surprised to learn that many people there are very interested in digital currency - especially Ripple. In this episode, Luis explains why he sold his bitcoin and ether, and moved his position mainly into the Ripple token XRP after speaking to some people at the Fed, attempting to put his sails into a head wind and hopefully increase his own financial freedom. Kurt counters by making the case for a small project called Halo Platform.   Purchase a Trezor to keep your crypto safe: https://trezor.cryptonomics.space Please upvote on Steemit: https://www.steemit.com/@cryptonomics1  Watch on BitTube: https://bit.tube/theparadiseparadox Website: https://cryptonomics.space  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/cryptonomics.space  YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/TheParadiseParadox Guide to Investing in Gold and Silver: https://www.amazon.com/Guide-Investing-Gold-Silver-Financial/dp/1937832740 Hidden Secrets of Money: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DyV0OfU3-FU&list=PLE88E9ICdipidHkTehs1VbFzgwrq1jkUJ

Crypto Tips from the Fed with Luis Fernando Mises

The cryptocurrency market has been making steady lows since January 2018. After going down for so long, most people have forgotten about their crypto dreams of lambos and how this technology is the future, sold their now piddling stake and even taken down their shingle that said "Crypto Guru". But some intrepid warriors persist, looking at these low prices not as a market defeated, but as an opportunity. Can someone make money investing in a low market like this? And if so, which projects are worthwhile?   Purchase a Trezor to keep your crypto safe: https://trezor.cryptonomics.space Please upvote on Steemit: https://www.steemit.com/@cryptonomics1  Watch on BitTube: https://bit.tube/theparadiseparadox Website: https://cryptonomics.space  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/cryptonomics.space  YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/TheParadiseParadox

Good time to buy crypto? With Chris Guida

Bitcoin and cryptocurrency still carry a stigma, promoted by Big Media, that their only uses are funding terrorism and buying drugs on the Dark Net. After the last bubble crashed in 2018, many people are even under the impression that the entirety of the technology is a pyramid scheme or otherwise a fraud. In fact, there are many legal uses for crypto, some of which are already current, and many which will be revealed in coming years. Some examples include: a store of value, monetary sovereignty, tracking a supply chain, online or brick and mortar commerce, sending money to politically unpopular causes such as Wikileaks, proving copyright claims, and the sale of digital assets to represent shares in a company.      Purchase a Trezor to keep your crypto safe: https://trezor.cryptonomics.space Please upvote on Steemit: https://www.steemit.com/@cryptonomics1  Watch on BitTube: https://bit.tube/theparadiseparadox Website: https://cryptonomics.space  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/cryptonomics.space  YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/TheParadiseParadox

Legit Uses for Crypto? With Chris Guida

The Venezuelan government released the Petro in 2019... Sort of. Cryptocompare.com says they have no data about what the current price is, and Coin Market Cap doesn't list it at all. It seems that it was a state-sponsored scam. A government releasing their own crypto isn't so important to the long-term success of the market. Cryptocurrencies are already finding adoption in one way or another - used in commerce or as fund-raising tools for new companies - in the world's largest nation: the Internet. It doesn't need a formal declaration to have legitimacy. Real-world use is its own statement of legitimacy. Join Kurt and Chris Guida as we discuss this question, and also whether someone should sell their bitcoin after losing 90%.
