When I listened to this episode of Joe Rogan with Andreas Antonopolous in 2016 it made sense because I was new to #Bitcoin

But now in 2024 we all can see that Andreas was 100% right. This is exactly what's happening in our society right now.

~2016 Andreas was 🔥

Joe Rogan need to hear this clip again. It was clearly outside the realm of possibility for him then

We need Andreas back on Joe Rogan.

Is the full clip available somewhere?

Probably only if you are prem Spotify…think they scraped from YouTube

Damn I forgot how based Antonopolous was. Going to have to rewatch this one

🧡

What he described back then lives on today in Monero.

My thoughts that I reposted:

Well he could not have been more right. This is one of the main problems that I think most people aren’t considering about the path we can take in the future. It’s not our current system vs a new digital bitcoin system. Maybe it was or is, but it will not be. Those that control, whether the corporate or government institutions, they know and see the value of digital currency. Make no mistake about that. We are moving towards fully digital no matter what. When you accept that as a truth, maybe then you came come to terms and pick a side. SO MANY think there is only one choice, the CBDC route. But there is so much more opportunity out there folks!

So right! I'd love for Joe to invite Andreas again, 8 years after this episode.

This is a gem.

It’s happening. That’s for sure.

Canada obviously listened to this podcast. It was supposed to be a warning.. Not an instruction manual 😭

I'm often surprised that Joe hasn't had more bitcoiners on his show

It’s astonishing that Joe (or anyone) could listen to this and not become a Bitcoiner. Plus, Joe had Andreas on *multiple times*. A shame that Andreas became a shitcoiner too. At least we have these memories.

He did? (become a shitcoiner) I've been wondering what happened to him. He seemed to get it on a very deep level and was even able to put into words the economic future he pictured. Streaming sats and all that. But then completely disappeared from my radar.

He wrote a book called Mastering Ethereum. Multicoinism now. Covid and vaxx hysteria broke him too. He never seemed to put the time into Austrian economics, that was his weak point. Too much focus on tech™️.

Shame. Maybe bitcoin will make him come around. Or Vitalik even. Or the books that keep popping up lately. The genesis Book and Broken Money, etc.

He never changed his position on bitcoin though, he's always been pro-bitcoin.

He was a bitcoiner from the start, and before you even knew what bitcoin was.

I'm a bit late to this realisation, but, yes, absolutely: The future is digital currencies either way, the only question is which digital currency under whose control. Well but in this interview.

E.g. banks here in Switzerland setup a great payment system you can use for free called Twint - and everybody does. But you're always paying in their book money.

Yes, Andreas Antonopoulos was correct. The future isn't #Bitcoin or the status quo; the future is either Bitcoin or CBDCs.

It's a choice between:

Free speech or censorship

Privacy or surveillance

Freedom or slavery

Hope or despair

Those are everyone's choices when they learn about Bitcoin.

So true. Thanks for sharing.

Yep that about sums it up.

I have a 3 yr old daughter. I think im going to use this clip as a litmus test for if someone wants to talk about ubi, or climate change, student debt or anything other than THIS issue as important and they dont find this important and have no idea what Andreas is talking about...i dont have time to talk to you in any serious way.

This one is a gem!

Pick your future. I'd estimate, if things keep going the way they are, that CBDC's are 2-5 years out for most western countries. They will be launched for those dependent on the gov. at first (welfare/social security aka those who can't say no) and then moved into general use soon after. Progress will be faster if UBI (universal basic income) is implemented. Either way I'd estimate that cash is removed within 10-15 years. *obviously, times are guesstimates, just thinking out loud, but probably not that far off.

To me, BRICS gives off a pretty decent bancor style vibe (Mandibles, if you haven't read it). BTW, The Creature from Jekyll Island is a great book that explains central banking and the people behind it (There is an 8 hour abridged audio book version free online for those want to get the major points).

thanks for the references. I'm aware of Weztler's "A history of the FED" a huge book, I haven't read it yet but I'll be listening to this before.

It was already tested during lorry’s drivers protest in Canada

I listened to this podcast the morning It aired on a long walk. This was what sent me down the rabbit hole. It's pretty scary how perfectly this has aged. We all have a rough road ahead. No doubt about It.

this is an important discussion. I dont think many people realize how cornered they are by the corpses.

Great point

Which corporate money did you use today?

If you used a credit card it's corporate money

custodial lightning wallets are also corporate money

So don't use them. Most bitcoiners advise against using custodial wallets anyway.

#m=image%2Fjpeg&dim=864x1920&blurhash=%5BKB%7CEJM%7BE1M%7B%7EqRjRPRjD%25oft7t700xu%25Mt700xuxut7M%7Bj%5Bofj%5B_3M%7BM%7BRk_3M%7BM%7BRjxvWBayWC&x=b30d6b22102039e2466a7dbca63a9586911c5429e9930820b7ea078d4697a973

you literally posted an advertisement for a custodial wallet. this is why you maxis are all the same. you doublespeak. we both know most people are not going to fund a channel with an onchain transaction or run a node. a good L2 scaling solution wouldn't have the ridiculous limitations that lightning has. this is not the only way.

I'm not a maxi at all. Also I'm not a misersble troll constantly posting negative comments.

you're pushing a broken technology and making the entire concept of digital currency look like a complete joke. this is not what I signed up for in 2012. of course I'm going to sound mad.

I'm not pushing it. It's a nascent technology & there's no way a layer 2 is going to be built immediately that is going to work to your satisfaction. You come across as a spolied ungrateful child with your "This isn't what I signed up for...” & obviously you have no understanding of what the developers are doing & what is required to build scaling technology on bitcoin. All you do is bitch about it. I prefer people like Jack Dorsey, Odell etc that contribute to the development & are encouraging. See ya.

Too many 🤬

This is just crazy true, and it's happening.

A la Canada eh?

Here Andras was right, yet he’s wrong on the shitcoin side of things

A lot of people in 2016 said he was wrong on bitcoin.

Antonopolous says he is against middlemans. So in 2024 are u a individual or are u trying to be a middleman ?

Maybe u choose the path of corporatate money ? what will u choose.

LOL 0:17 to 0:20 Joe Rogans facial expression in response HAHAHA!

Yeah , it's the inevitable shift from the final stage vestiges of late stage financial capitalism into pure corporate fascism. It has always been the plan and why they don't want you reading Marx.....

I have been looking for a great intro to bitcoin podcast for normals. I think this is it

lately I've been chewing up Andrea's videos from early to now. his early takes on socioeconomic, regulatory, geopolitical issues ages really well.

Forever grateful to Andreas who orange pilled me.

The next time one of your friends or family talks "the cashless society" play this for them. Bitcoin is the answer. Digital money is not the problem. Centralized money is the problem.

Solution:

1. Pay with #Lightning or #Bitcoin

2. Pay with paper cash (I do as much as I can since many places don't take Bitcoin).

It's that simple.

visionary rip Andreas

Awesome 👏

Damn! He was and is right.

...Canadian Truckers

You're absolutely correct!

#BTC #Zap #Nostr #Bitcoin #FreeJulianAssange

Is aantonop here?

What episode is this?

844

Nice! Thx

Just listened to the episode. I liked it, it felt weird to listen to a conversation about #bitcoin in 2016 😅 but the idea stays the same

446, 490 and 581 (from 2014) are still absolutely worth a listen, too.

🎯

Andreas Nostradamus

This was happening 6 years before this interview with Wikileaks. All their donation services were shut down one by one except their bitcoin donations.

Andreas and Nick Szabo are Monero shitcoiners.

Which makes one think if most Bitcoiners have lost the plot?
