You don't have to trust BlackRock. It also doesn't matter if you don't like them. Bitcoin is for everyone and we couldn't stop them from using it if we wanted to. If we could, the whole point of Bitcoin would be invalidated.

I feel like Whitney’s lens of the world can’t compute Bitcoin deeply, it really doesn’t matter if Blackrock acts nefarious or not. Whitney operates in a world of war machines and government attacks and Bitcoin is a black hole, it’s so beyond that game. Shoot as many cannons as you want at Bitcoin. As long as it stays decentralized and secure this all just noise.

Don’t know much about her, but might give us a go.. I’m not a big fan of YouTube
It’s a podcast and that’s not the implication. “[Pocast Title] with [Guests]” is a pretty standard format.

bc it’s nice to hear people using truth to try to make things better (as opposed to manipulating people with empty & false rhetoric). ***not*** bc of jack’s calm vibe or peter’s cute english accent, i swear.
My comment was not a summary of the podcast, but more so a tangential meme Perhaps a better meme would have been: Orange Piller: Stocks trading 9am-4pm on week days is boomer tech. Bitcoin trades 24/7/365 BlackRock: Let’s upgrade our tech and tokenize securities so they can trade 24/7/365 Orange Piller: Not Fair, BlackRock bad
I thought I was the only one noticing how dismally blackpilled this discussion was. Of course I don't trust Blackrock, of course I expect fuckery, and Bitcoin doesn't care. I listened to more than half and didn't hear a single specific detail about how blackrock will 'defeat bitcoin' or actionable steps to avoid that. Noise < Signal
I don't think she's been officially orange pilled. I noticed this as well. You can tell from prior appearances on WBD and TFTC.
I can't recall if anybody has asked her about what people can do to take action. She's a journalist, maybe she doesn't feel it's her place?
Well she's a investigative journalist, so that's what she's there to talk about. She does really indepth research. Her books give so much detail they're a bit exhausting, but really that's what it takes to make the arguments.

Bitcoin has this way of tearing down your constructs of the world. Her construct riddled in control and can’t fathom something organic like bitcoin. She just assumes it will be captured.
In this awesome talk- If I listened properly, @Whitney Webb said Carney was the Governor of the BOE, then the same for the BOC— but it was the other way around.
