How have we got here?
Completely delusional kids talking complete nonsense!
I honestly can’t believe crypto is still a thing, some people are so stupid!
This is going to hurt!
Ryan and David put out content that is consistently thoughtful and insightful. This show is unique for its intellectual honesty, self-reflectiveness, and grounding in principles. It feels like Ryan and David are genuinely curious and principles people, and they bring their audience along on their own journey. This show has been a consistent bright spot for the crypto industry.
Claim to be capitalists but advocate many kinds of regulations.
SSIA this podcast claims to be not political yet brings it up endlessly. Politicizing crypto is exactly why it will fail! How long will it take for the crypto bros to figure out they have been grifted. This review is posted by a BTC and crypto supporter who wants nothing more than success. Too bad everyone in this space sucks.
Love the pod, Ryan and David have an excellent channel covering in-depth crypto and macro/finance content, interesting industry guests and a great weekly summary in the Friday Roll-up
