"Soldier of Fortune"
I was Listening to the podcast and the idea thrown around was about Bitcoin being perceived dead so many times that it's like South Park's Kenny. Always keeps coming back to life. Never in our recorded history has creating currencies been in the hands of the general public and many of the early pioneers have suffered the consequences. Often by their actions but there is a lot of talk behind the scenes. As Andreas Antonopoulos says: "We are experiencing international currency wars on a large scale."
Much of bitcoins history still suffers from it being associated to the dark web, drugs and the silk road but it is important to remember all currency is now digital and most terrorist dealings and criminal activity is still being done through dollars, oil and other traditional forms of exchange. Even if the blockchain world would like to see crypto as an angelic savior, there is a dark side to it as well.
It's now 1.18am in London as this is being uploaded during the fork so the split eyes are kind of obvious in terms of being relevant for the time.
