John Oliver does a good job explaining Bitcoin & cryptocurrencies. But, there are a few things he left out...
On Sunday, March 11th, 2018 John Oliver covered Bitcoin, cryptocurrency and Blockchain technology. For many crypto enthusiasts, this will go do down as a cultural staple, the point at which millions of Americans first learned about the real implications of Bitcoin (aka Blockchain).
John Oliver has a keen way of relaying complicated, and often controversial, topics to the general public. He does a solid job with Bitcoin, providing a broad, yet level-headed perspective on what all this really means. John Oliver touches on some fundamental concepts like security and efficiency but merely scrapes the surface when talking about how the technology works.

Thanks haha appreciate the publicity
A lot of research went into that episode. The man even explained pump and dumps for goodness sake! 😎
I mean John Oliver and his team do an incredible job with research. The irony though is that I bet John Oliver has no idea how the Blockchain actually works haha
That could well be the case. 😎
The topic seemed responsibly covered, though, both the pros and cons.
agreed
