"Bitcoin is neutral and these other cryptocurrencies are not. They have insiders, whether it's founders, whether it's boards, whether it's companies… Bitcoin is a neutral internet money and these other projects aren't." On this Bitcoin Talk episode of THE Bitcoin Podcast, Walker talks with Bradley Rettler. Brad is the Director of the new University of Wyoming Bitcoin Research Institute and co-author of “Resistance Money.” They discuss the launch of the Bitcoin Research Institute, what Bitcoin critics fail to understand, Bitcoin vs "crypto," politics and Bitcoin, metaphysics and money, and a whole lot more.
