This is the big one!   Today, we put some Bitcoin (1,432,047 Satoshis to be precise) in the hands of kids. It’s theirs, they own it, and we don’t have any say in how they save it or spend it.   I’ll not spoil the results here, but I do have some thankyous to give.    The Artists and their Parents  Bowdog Jr; Charlotte; Jasper; Evie; Harriet; Niels; Regan; India; Luna; Archer; Sabine; Frankie; Sena; Bellemy; Claudia; Samuel; and, Ava.    The Judges  Our kids    Those who kindly donated.   With a special mention to:  Scott, Mallory and Charlotte from www.shamory.com  HaggisHodl and AnAverageSalmon whose generosity kicked this off    The Inspiration  Pixel and Paul    To see the winning entries, go to:  https://bitcoin-first.com/kids-art-competition/

We’ve always wanted to do an “Orange Pill Live” episode, to test our abilities in answering the questions of a precoiner and to see if (during the course of a podcast) we could convince someone to buy themselves their first Bitcoin.  That was the intention of this episode, but in the time it’s taken us to schedule the pod with Bernie, he’d already got himself off zero!  However, Bernie is Brendo’s mate, so we thought we’d go ahead with the call and press record anyway, and only publish it if we thought it might help someone out there.  It turns out, Bernie has gone from zero to well down the road of hero in 2 short months, but he gave us a great perspective on the issues and questions a new Bitcoiner has right now.    We discuss:  Bulked-up Brendo  “Crypto” misconceptions  What made Bernie take the first step into Bitcoin  The challenge of buying a home and deposit requirements  University (HECS) debt indexation  Lack of government support, lies about inflation, stimulus cheques, UBI and something having changed  Trying to outrun inflation  Savings accounts, stocks, risk taking and having a go  What Bernie did practically when he decided to buy some Bitcoin  Hot and Cold wallets  Understanding a non-physical asset  Personal responsibility, 2FA and key storage  Steel Seedplates  Speaking in Bitcoin or Sats  The gradually then suddenly event horizon  Volatility, risk taking and bag pumping  Rewards programmes  Why does Bitcoin crash and is it a buying opportunity  Murrurundi golf    Pod Shout-outs  HardBlock  https://www.hardblock.com.au/join/hats     The Bitcoin Adviser (Peter Dunworth)  *** Get your first 3 months free with The Bitcoin Adviser when you use referral code "SECURE" at www.thebitcoinadviser.com/contact    Bitcoin Bush Bash  http://bitcoinbushbash.info/       Contact Us  www.2bitidiots.com

Dr. Jordan B. Peterson and economist Peter Schiff discuss the gold standard, the corruption and impending failure of the fiat system in the wake of inflation, why politicians are pushing inflation to astronomical new levels, and why they’re lying about it. Peter Schiff is an economist, financial broker, author, frequent guest on national news, and host of the podcast, "the Peter Schiff Show." Starting in 2005, Schiff took notice of the red flags signaling that economic unrest was looming and correctly predicted the 2008 housing crisis. His attempts to warn the general public across a multitude of news and radio networks earned him the nickname “Dr. Doom.” Since then, he has been looked on as a source not only to watch but heavily consider. - Links - For Peter Schiff: Euro Pacific Asset Management: https://europac.com/SchiffGold: https://schiffgold.com/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/peterschiffTwitter: https://twitter.com/PeterSchiff
