BitMEX’s recent live event with The Spectator (“Who’s afraid of Bitcoin?”) was an exclusive affair, with fewer than 200 people in the theatre. All the sessions that morning were high quality, and we’ll upload them in due course, but we wanted to give you a taste of things ASAP. In this session, the gloves really came off and the sparks flew. Whoever said economics was dull never saw Saif and Martin argue the merits of Bitcoin! On stage: Saifedean Ammous, author of The Bitcoin Standard (quote: “Bitcoin is the first money we’ve invented that is harder than gold") Martin Vander Weyer, business editor of The Spectator (quote: Bitcoin is a “piece of horseshit”) Andrew Neil, legendary broadcast journalist and chairman of The Spectator (quote: “Is it Bitcoin or shitcoin?”) In the front row, laughing audibly: Arthur Hayes, BitMEX CEO and co-founder #mystery of crypto #bitcoin gebühren #crypto stamp wertsteigerung
