Summary:
The podcast begins with an introduction to Der Gigi's article "Bitcoin is Time," which explores the concept that Bitcoin has its own unique understanding of time, separate from the conventional measurement of seconds, minutes, and hours. The hosts aim to unpack this idea, acknowledging the complexity of the topic and opting for a high-level, philosophical approach rather than a deep dive into the technical aspects of Bitcoin's operation.
