Episode Details

In this episode, Bram Kanstein, host of Bitcoin for Millennials, explores how fiat currency erodes values, incentives, and meaning—and how Bitcoin restores them. They discuss the educational gap around Bitcoin, the illusion of gold’s scarcity, and why sound money is essential for rebuilding a society that values creation over consumption. From financial nihilism to the philosophical and spiritual roots of value, this conversation dives deep into what makes Bitcoin the ideal money for future generations.
