Tokenomics and Why Does it Need a Blockchain with Nate @EatSleepCrypto | Part 1

Author: Choice October 7, 2022 Duration: 55:05

Why are there so many cryptocurrencies? What do they all do? How do they all relate to Bitcoin? Is the future multi chain?

This is now my favorite episode of Bitcoin is Hard, for 7 years I’ve been on this journey of trying to figure out what role Bitcoin is playing in the world and what role other cryptocurrencies and tokens may or may not have.

Hope you enjoy part 1 and huge thanks to Nate for hanging out for so long and walking us through his ideas that he has been piecing together over those same several years.  Like, subscribe, comment, and share this episode with a friend who needs to hear it!
