#11 Bitcoin: The Inverse of Clown World with Knut Svanholm (Author & Podcast Host)

Bitcoin Insights | Bitcoin Podcast mit Philipp 'PJAH' Hartmannsgruber

In this episode, Philipp and Knut Svanholm discuss Knut’s latest book, “The Inverse of Clown World”. Knut unpacks the meme behind Bitcoin Infinity Day (August 21), and they share insights from their experiences at Bitcoin conferences, particularly Baltic Honeybadger. They emphasize the value of intellectual honesty in the Bitcoin community and the importance of celebrating ideas over individuals. The conversation touches on themes from the book, including the concept of ‘Clown World,’ the risks of hero worship, and finding balance between extremes in thought and action.

Who is Knut Svanholm?

Knut Svanholm is a Bitcoin author, educator, and armchair philosopher. His first work, 'Bitcoin: Sovereignty through Mathematics,' is widely regarded as a classic in the space, earning recognition as a recommended read on numerous educational platforms, including MicroStrategy's Bitcoin site www.hope.com. Knut's influence extends beyond his written contributions; he is credited with coining the popular meme 'Everything Divided by 21 Million,' a phrase that encapsulates the scarcity and mathematical principles underpinning Bitcoin. Building on his literary success, Knut dedicates his time to advising a select group of Bitcoin companies and hosting 'The Freedom Footprint Show,' a thought-provoking podcast exploring Bitcoin philosophy and its implications for individual sovereignty.
