The Sunday Recap - Down the Rabbit Hole 18

in #timm6 years ago


What can I say, things haven't slowed down this week. Its been a steam-roller of news, narratives, and tech developments. Fun to dig into but very time-consuming. This week, I'm adding a new category - Pick of the Week. If you only have time for one piece of crypto 'insight' I recommend you check out the weekly pick.


Pick of the Week

If you do nothing else checkout this week's podcast. A Human Right's Perspective on Bitcoin - With 52% of the world's population living under authoritarian regimes Bitcoin and blockchain are of immense importance to our future freedoms.

Note on Sources:

Twitter & Reddit (cryptos current meta-brains) / Medium / Trybe / Hackernoon / Whaleshares / TIMM and so on/ YouTube / various podcasts and whatever else I stumble upon. The aim is a useful weekly aggregator of ideas rather than news. Though I try to keep the sources current – I’ll reference these articles and podcasts etc. as I encounter them – they may have been published just a couple of days ago or in some cases quite a bit earlier.
