Saw that today and thought the same

Yeah, same. Someone tell me too

hes an investor vc type that used to work for coinbase and made waves last year in twitterverse by making a bet that bitcoin would hit a fiat valuation of $1 million within 90 days

I think he's the guy who bet Bitcoin will reach 100k or 1M in 100 days last year. And lost the bet

There are no important bitcoiners.

He's not really a Bitcoiner, but he's smart.

I don't get you for one who's enjoying the Bitcoin doomerism around the economy and culture (with some optimism hidden in the long run).

But if you would, then for sure bookmark his last year's podcast with Marty Bent. Arguably, the best podcast of the year by some of the people in this group. It's pretty fascinating, but not for everyone.

Balaji is pretty bright, eloquent, and can articulate well his thesis around the defragmentation of the centralized institutions and rise of the freedom oriented Network States.

He's for sure not a Bitcoin purist. Having more utilitarian approach about using the best tool for whatever job at hand. Which in the past resulted into him building the digital casino ecosystems mostly just for the sake of making money for himself 😬.

He is a scammer. His million dollar bet was a local top. The confidence convinced people to buy while insiders sold into their liquidity. Never trust a famous bitcoiner.

Create your own digital portfolio, webpages, applications, artwork, research articles, books, photos, videos, comics, 2D and 3D designs, podcasts, channels, events, workshops, courses, etc... and then start capitalizing online with Bitcoin.

The objective is to create a long-term service not a short-term investment.
