The Centbee Show 51 - Bitcoin BTC, a Cargo Cult?

BTC: A Cargo Cult Illusion? Discover Real Value with BSV

Join hosts Lorien Gamaroff and Kage Ntshingila on this episode of the Centbee show as they explore the metaphor of Bitcoin BTC as a 'cargo cult'—built on symbols, rituals, and faith without substance. They explore the parallels between BTC's approach and the historical cargo cults, emphasising how BTC believers mimic traditional financial markets without understanding true value creation. In contrast, BSV is a real-world solution, like a functioning airplane that brings true wealth through hard work and innovation.

Tune in to hear a lively discussion about understanding Bitcoin's potential, avoiding gambling pitfalls, and leveraging real utility for economic growth with BSV.
