The State of Bitcoin (w/ Alex Leishman)

Drew Armstrong sits down with Alex Leishman (CEO & CTO of River) for a tavern chat and open Q&A about:

How and why Alex started River (even though he isn't a "finance guy")
Why most U.S. bitcoin companies are derivative casinos, and how River is different
The challenge of building real bitcoin UX in a market addicted to speculation
How Alex thinks about custody, nodes, and what it means to “actually use Bitcoin”
Why ETFs might help price go up... but won’t help people become financially sovereign
What it takes to raise capital in a bear market when you're NOT peddling garbage
