August 17, 2015 — 50 mins

This week we spawn last episodes ‘digi-dough’ joke into a full blown segment where we ask hip-hop artists (Hoodie Allen, Ace Cosgrove, The Roots, The Cool Kids, Zion I) to spit us a line involving bitcoin. The results…hilarious. In addition to that, gathering friends, followers and “likers” online can only take you so far in the world of networking. Organizing a ‘meetup’ is a great way to move your virtual network to a tangible territory. Enter Scott Rose, who recently caught my attention with his his recent Austin Nerd Night presentation called “Bitcoin 101: What Happens When We Decentralize Money?”. I often think bitcoin needs better P.R., and Scott did his part. We talk to him about the bitcoin climate in Austin and what it takes to successfully maintain Austin as ‘the place to be’ within the bitcoin community.
