Dotcom Bubble vs Cryptocurrency Today

Cory
January 10, 2018

I have been hearing a lot about how the rise in Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies is echoing other bubbles in financial markets. This seemed like a good topic to address with Jimmy Song who is a Bitcoin developer. We talk about what he looks at when determining what is a valid cryptocurreny and how to figure out what the solid ideas are. At the end of the interview Jimmy shares some of the coins he is most interested in.

    Buffett: “I Would Buy A Five-Year Put On Every Cryptocurrency”

    “[Cryptocurrencies are] something I don’t know anything about… [but] I can say with almost certainty that they will come to a bad ending…”

    Never buy anything you don’t understand. There is no solid connection to anything tangible here. Many things can serve as medium of exchange or store of value, but on/off switches?

    Mr. Cory Fleck,

    The next time you interview Jimmy Song could you please have him respond to the very disconcerting points made about crypto currencies in the article below?

    The link to this article was posted in the comments of the weekend show. (Last weekend) by Chris. (I don’t think Chris Temple, a different Chris. Not sure who he is but very relevant article with many serious points.)

      Anyone new to the cryptos ought to read that article before they plunk down their hard earned fiats.

      Mike Maloney appears to have arrived at the same conclusion regarding bitcoin.

      Thanks Ebolan, I have already send the article to Jimmy. We didn’t have enough time to go through the full article before this most recent call.

      Here was the original comment by Chris.

    Charles Ortel invterview…explains how the Clintons tried to make their rivals associates of their corrupt deeds so the rivals would be compromised and therefore would not be a threat.

      This is why I think it will be very hard to take down the Clintons. I still think they will never spend a second in a jail cell or even have to return one penny of their ill gotten gains.

        And we still may have Chelsea in the House in 2020 or if not she may continue the Clinton corruption behind the scenes.

    Interview with Ernest Hancock and McAfee about cryptos. Also, McAfee is coming out with a privacy smart phone. Wonder if it runs Linux….

    Mr. Cory Fleck, can you get Hancock or McAfee on?
