It’s not every day that I get to sit down with the author of The Age of Cryptocurrency: How Bitcoin and Digital Money Are Challenging the Global Economic Order
It’s was a fascinating opportunity to talk about the future of bitcoin and where everything is headed.
You can read about it here and watch above.
I’m still writing for TC and I’m still working on books – I’m a glutton for punishment – but I wanted to put this up so people wouldn’t be surprised. No more details yet, but soon.
I’m apparently very well-spoken in Polish.

My friend Jordan Crook and I are now on Sirius XM channel 102, called Indie, where we run TechCrunch Radio, a live pitch-off that we run on the radio. It’s a load of fun. You can listen to it on Tuesdays at 6pm Eastern and they play it again every few days. The next time you can hear it is at 6pm on Thursday.
