Surviving in Orange with James Viggiano

The Transformation of Value with Cody Ellingham

In today’s episode I talk with James Viggiano.

We talk about Jame’s project Orange, which hosts a server in the popular multiplayer survival game “Rust”, where you can trade and learn about Bitcoin, have virtual meetups, and complete missions to earn sats.

We also cover James’s experience trying to run a Bitcoin exchange in New Zealand and being denied banking services, as well as broader ideas about the future of the New Zealand economy, and a realistic take on what CBDCs might actually look like.
