âBitcoin for the first time gives you the sovereign and particular right to your finances to spend, to trade, and thatâs something we didnât know that the government couldnât take away from you. Bitcoin is the manifestation of the God-given right to have your value.â

This was the second ever live What Bitcoin Did show, hosted at the excellent Pubkey in New York City. And, for a live show, we needed a combination of an OG Bitcoiner, with strong opinions, who could singâŠluckily Junseth was available!
Junseth is obviously a Bitcoiner whoâs happy to tackle hot topics. So we began by discussing the good and the bad of ordinals: it has certainly strengthened Bitcoin in terms of node usage and transaction fees, but are inscriptions the best use of the blockchain? And, as Junseth espouses, should we get too concerned about tests of Bitcoinâs anti-fragility?
Further, we talked about what, for an OG, Bitcoin represents both today and in the future. Can Bitcoin fix everything? If not, what is Bitcoinâs lane or lanes? How early are we? Why people need to shitcoin before finding Bitcoin is the only blockchain. How it strengthens American democracy. And what it will take for Bitcoin to change the world.
Finally, Junseth took some excellent questions from the crowd. He covered economic degeneracy, Bitcoinâs limitations, how Bitcoin supports democracy and American values, and whether we should be hodling or spending Bitcoin. He would have given us golden material on every subject under the sun if weâd had the time!
We were very grateful to have a sell-out and supportive crowd, and thanks again to our amazing hosts Pubkey! Itâs been a long time since we did a live event, but there will definitely be more to come this year. In fact, we have 2 shows scheduled: in Bedford on April 14th and in Miami on May 17th.
