Letters from a Contrarian Eugene Fernandes
-
- Økonomi
The internet and its spawns have massively shifted societal incentives. Individuals don't speak up for fear of cancellation, politicians pander to polls to "play it safe," and journalists and the media try to story-tell instead of relay the facts.
But the internet offers great promise too. Online pseudonymity pushes everyone criticize the speech and not the speaker, blockchain governance offer internet-native alternatives to elections and parliaments, and everyone can get wealthy thanks to crypto!
I just ask how.

Nicholas Merten - Founding and Running Digifox, The Value of Bitcoin, and Energy Stocks
Full disclosure, I happen to work at Digifox, and Nicholas is my boss. But as a 23 year old who's responsible for the salaries of ~2 dozen people and a Praxis graduate, Nicholas is an extremely impressive guy. In this episode, we discussed his background and origins, the rise and potential of crypto as an asset class, the failures and inefficiencies of the banking system, and renewable energy. Enjoy!

IJ Makan - Cultural Appropriation, Crypto, NFTs, and Future Cities
IJ and I met over twitter! We covered a lot of ground in this episode, including discussions about Canadian identity (or lack thereof), the potential that blockchain and crypto has, how he got started creating his NFT collection of philosopher kings, and how we'll build cities in the future. Also, the video doesn't show my face for the first hour or so because I forgot to unpin IJ's screen on zoom.
