Big Al, pseudonymous co-author of the “Only The Strong Survive” article joins me on the show to talk about various critiques of non-Bitcoin ‘Crypto’ projects. In this explosive discussion, we talk about the key things you need to know on Bitcoin as contrasted with ‘Crypto’ and DeFi.
We chat:
<ul>
 <li>What truly sets Bitcoin apart</li>
 <li>DeFi not being decentralised, and not finance</li>
 <li>Everything fights for liquidity</li>
 <li>The problem with utility tokens</li>
 <li>Dishonest TVL metrics and massive leverage in ‘defi’</li>
</ul>
