The Ultimate Case for Bitcoin with Murad Mahmudov
The Bitcoin Matrix
10/10/22 • 91 min
In this important interview Cedric sits down with Murad Mahmudov to talk about what Bitcoin is, how it works, the importance of its deflationary monetary system, why all Fiat Currencies are doomed to fail, and how central banks and institutions should be thinking about Bitcoin.
Muard is the founder of STFX, economist and angel investor. Mahmudov believes that Bitcoin will transform finance, government, and society and due to it's deflationary properties will cause people to think more long term relative to how people act in the current fiat money system.
What if you didn’t have to pay healthcare premiums anymore? What if you could invest in bitcoin instead?
With CrowdHealth, you can put aside money for health expenses in your own account, and even hold a large part of it in bitcoin — if bitcoin goes up, you get the upside — not big insurance companies.

Choose your doctors, get great healthcare, and hold up to 75% of the balance in Bitcoin every month.

CypherSafe has a long heritage of creating quality (and I think beautiful) metal products. Their parent company, Numberall has been doing it since 1930. With bitcoin slowly changing people’s time preference, they feel it’s a great time to focus on making artistic, metal items. People can again start to appreciate an item for it’s beauty, and the craftsmanship it took to make it.
Their first go is the Bitcoin Reuleaux Triangle. It’s a fusion of engineering, geometry, artisanship, and bitcoin.
It’s overall shape is the Reuleaux Triangle, named after Franz Reuleaux. He was an engineer in the 1800’s who formalized Kinematic Theory,
Of course the obvious nod to bitcoin is front and center with the Bitcoin ₿ logo.
They strived to achieve a beautiful look with the ₿ face textured for an almost diamond coated look. Along with making the ₿ a raised engraving, which creates a beveled edge to enhance the smaller details.
All of this is done in titanium
We hope you find the Bitcoin Reuleaux Triangle as beautiful as we do!

For this insightful and highly informative episode Cedric sits down again with Bitcoin author and thinker Brandon Quittem for a wide ranging conversation about Bitcoin as a pioneer species, ecology, how utilizing more energy and not less will save the planet and why he's so optimistic about the future even as we go through another fourth turning.

Bitcoin is a fungus. If you cleave a piece off, you're just making more. It cannot be stopped, no matter how hard governments, detractors, or other obstacles may stand in its way. Brandon and Ced ponder a potential Second Civil War, psychedelics, Millennial thinking vs Zoomer thinking, and where we stand in The Fourth Turning.
