How Many is too Many?

I currently subscribe to about 40 podcasts, most of which have something to do with anarchy or some form of personal freedom. Needless to say, I listen to podcasts pretty much all day at work and a lot of the time at home.

My top five are:

1. Liberty Under Attack with @shaneradliff
   (He also has another great one called "The Vonu Podcast")

2. Seeds of Liberty with @abolitionistjay and @anarcho-andrei

3. Sovryn Tech with Brian Sovryn

4. Friends Against Government with CarCampit and @birdarchist

5. Lets Talk Bitcoin Network with Stephanie Murphy, Adam B. Levine and Jonathan Mohan

There are other really good ones like Freedom Feens, The Dangerous History, Security Now, The Corbett Report, Media Monarchy and The Tom Woods Show. It was honestly harder than I thought to pick a top five.

Is Bitcoin Nuke-Proof?

I was recently listeng to Lets Talk Bitcoin and they had Andreas Antonopolous, the bitcoin guru, on talking about "apocalyptic" bitcoin. Now, we know the real meaning of apocalypse has nothing to do with the end of the world from breaking down the etymology here... https://steemit.com/language/@anarchoaahabb/word-of-the-week-ep-2-apocalypse

Most of the scenarios presented were kind of cooky and unrealistic but I like cooky and proper preparation prevents piss poor performance. The idea is that in some cataclysmic event bitcoin would be fine beacause of the resilience of the distributed ledger.

The possibility of using radio waves and emojis to send transactions because bitcoin is just information that can be coded in any form is incredible. You could use a HAM radio and bounce waves off the ionosphere or the moon as light is just a form of radiation. Hide bitcoin in a painting, print it in a news paper, send it in morse code smoke signals, spell out seed keys in alphabet soup! The possibilities are only as limited as the imagination.

Solar flares, nuclear weapons detonated in the atmosphere, government intervention, A.I., alien invaders, there are so many things that could go wrong. Bitcoin has a broad, diverse user base who each have incentive to get the blockchain back online in the event of failure and each will have unique ways of doing this. The question becomes how fast can the infrastructure get built back up. The current banking system has backup generators and faraday cages but not the distributed ledger technology of the blockchain. Although I see more and more banks adopting blockchain, the still centralized nature of their systems will be their downfall.

In the end even if bitcoin and all the alt-coins and shit-coins disappear overnight the idea of a decentralized, distributed, peer to peer currency has been unleashed and can never be stopped. With every restrictive regulation, coders will find a way around it. With every act of violence against peaceful people practicing free trade, people will seek ro subvert the system that restricts and strangles them.

-Aahabb-

I couldn't post as much as I wanted to for #minnowuprising. Today was really busy. Anybody who wants to find out more about this project visit @taskmaster4450 page and check it out.

Peace, love and chicken grease!
