Nima and Dylan discuss the early days of the cryptocurrency revolution, the history of Bitcoin's different forks, how Modern Monetary Theory thoroughly explains the value of cryptocurrencies (a topic that Nima and Dylan have pioneered and discussed for years), and which cryptocurrency and alt-tech projects appear interesting and genuinely useful in today's environment.
