TPB102 - The Importance of Bipartisan Support for Bitcoin with Lyn Alden

The Progressive Bitcoiner

“When I think about US politics, the single-minded focus I have is reducing the probability of tail risk draconian anti-Bitcoin types of regulation.” - Lyn Alden

My guest today is Lyn Alden, Founder of Lyn Alden Investment Strategy, GP at Ego Death Capital and BoD at Swan. In this episode we discusses the current U.S. political landscape and the importance of pushing for bipartisan support of Bitcoin, Bitcoin's role in global economics, the future of US fiscal policy, and the importance of financial privacy. Lyn shares the potential of Bitcoin as a hedge against inflation and currency devaluation, progressive arguments for Bitcoin and we also delve into the benefits of decentralized social media protocol Nostr.
