In this space with all of the pump and dump alt-coins, sub-optimal blockchain technology ideas, social media smears and misinformation I believe it is important to be able to navigate through the fluff and find some meaningful, thought-provoking discussion and content on the web.

Ideally we could engage in such activity through local meetups or in-person discussions with others, but some of us have yet to find that within our communities at home. I have found a Bitcoin Cash meetup recently here in Silicon Valley and it has been great to get away from Reddit, YouTube and have spirited, respectful discussion.

When we have down time or are traveling, it is also nice to be able to listen to or view others have some thoughtful conversation, so I'd like to list out some of the best BCH YouTubers I have found that have really educated me, offered unique perspective and helped myself form a more intelligent outlook on the crypto space as a whole.

1. The BCH Boys https://soundcloud.com/user-999365867

In my opinion, these guys are having the most intelligent and interesting conversations about the long-term vision of BCH, its protocol, economics and incentives.

I have listened to each and every one and I learned a great deal. They are one of the few channels have in-dept discussion around how Bitcoin operates and its concepts, from mining, 0-conf, merchant adoption and various use cases.

Half of their podcasts are on YouTube, while all of them are on SoundCloud. They release videos every Wednesday.

2. Esoteric Noetic https://www.youtube.com/user/TheKrishoolJourneyTV/videos

His channel covers a wide range of topic, but a subset of his content is dedicated to Bitcoin Cash discussion and interviews with figures in the space like The BCH Boys, Vin Armani, CSW, and Derek Magill. His unique libertarian-esque perspectives outside of cryptocurrency fit nicely with Bitcoin's concepts and make for an interesting listen.

3. Vin Armani https://www.youtube.com/user/VinArmani/videos

Vin Armani is the lead developer behind CoinText, where you can send BCH and other cryptos to others via SMS. Vin has a more realistic view on BCH from a developers' perspective and has very unique political views which can be very entertaining. He and the other two above have all interviewed each other so its nice to hear educated figures in the space have a high-level discussion.

Roger Ver's website/YouTube channel Bitcoin.com has put out great content from discussion to news to showing actual merchant/user on-boarding and adoption.

His weekly videos on what is going on in the BCH space is a great way to stay informed amidst all the noise and drama in other social media platforms. Recently he has interviewed some rather controversial figures in the broader crypto space like John McAfee and Charlie Lee, which some may be interested in.

5. Ryan X. Charles https://www.youtube.com/user/ryanxcharles

Most users of this site should know who Ryan is, but I found his recent (controversial!) YouTube videos, and videos last year leading up to the fork to be very informative for someone like myself who only got into the space in November of last year.

To get a comprehensive history lesson, Ryan put out video for 15 consecutive days up to and through August 1st of last year.

Coingeek is the largest Bitcoin Cash miner and has a media outlet via their YouTube channel and website. For easily digestible content, their videos are short and to the point with other prominent figures in the BCH space. Their 2nd conference is coming up this year which if their videos of the last one in May are indications of how this one in November will be, should be an amazing experience. Hope to see some of you all there!
