SLP311 Bitcoin: Only The Strong Survive - with Big Al

Big Al, pseudonymous co-author of the “Only The Strong Survive” article joins me on the show to talk about various critiques of non-Bitcoin ‘Crypto’ projects. In this explosive discussion, we talk about the key things you need to know on Bitcoin as contrasted with ‘Crypto’ and DeFi.

We chat:

  • What truly sets Bitcoin apart
  • DeFi not being decentralised, and not finance
  • Everything fights for liquidity
  • The problem with utility tokens
  • Dishonest TVL metrics and massive leverage in ‘defi’
