//podcastplus.net/feed/bitcoin-worldview~54a166f0 What can Bitcoin teach us about how to understand the world around us?Bitcoin Worldview is a series of Zoom calls where we start with the most basic things we can reasonably know. We will then examine how to build a solid worldview, block by block. Be ready to have your assumptions tested (verified) and to help others do the same in engaging conversations.

Bitcoin is a virtual, non physical currency but is positioned to have strong rippling effects on the physical world we live in. But, why is there something rather than nothing? Why is there a world at all and how did it begin? Marcus Edwards presents on this topic. Marcus has a MSc in quantum physics and is also a software developer.

Bitcoin is software, information, math, and cryptology, and yet it is already starting to describe a new and updated physical future for human flourishing. Surprisingly, math is effective in describing and predicting developments in our physical world. Why is that? Why does math work? RESOURCES Tectonic movements in Þingvellir, Iceland.

Bitcoin is a communication protocol of distributed decentralized databases. Bitcoin also has the slogan of “Don’t trust. Verify.” Is communication possible and how (if at all) can we trust the knowledge that we acquire through our senses? Agust presents a practical approach to this topic, drawing metaphors from how Bitcoin operates. Discussion includes: Critical thinking and how becoming self sovereign builds that. Quantum entanglement and how we have evidence for truths that defy our everyday experience. How engaging in communication, receiving and sharing, helps build a stronger worldview.

IN THIS EPISODE, SOME OF THE QUESTIONS FOR JIMMY: When and how did you hear about Bitcoin for the first time? Did studying Bitcoin change your thinking and how you understand the world from early on, and how? With Bitcoin, for the first time in history we have an asset with fixed supply. This fixed supply of Bitcoin sounds very much like an absolute truth: Something always valid, regardless of parameters or context. Do you believe absolute truth exists, and has Bitcoin in any way shaped your conclusion on that? Is it possible that we will see nations attempting communism controlled with AI and that Bitcoin is our best protection against that? Sign up on www.bitcoinworldview.live to join the next Zoom call.
