Bitcoin Takeover Podcast

Bitcoin Takeover Podcast

Bitcoin Takeover tells the oral history of many OGs and builders such as Roger Ver, Martti Malmi, Vitalik Buterin, Charlie Shrem, as well as hundreds of developers, entrepreneurs, and troublemakers whose work shaped the world's first decentralized money. This is not a show about price predictions or recycled talking points. It is about the technology, the history, the scandals, and the ideas that will decide Bitcoin's future. Seven years and 350+ episodes, with one rule that never changed: the guest did something notable, and the host did the reading. Time to learn!
