Audio from “The Internet of Money”, volumes 1 and 2, a collection of talks by Andreas M. Antonopoulos between 2015 and 2017.
In this talk, Andreas examines the sensationalist debate over "fake news," the rising tide of faith-based nation states declaring bitcoin as "fake money," and alternative mechanisms we can build to fill the void left by retired fact-checking departments & central bank authorities.
