Episode notes
Interview time again, and this week I’m out of my depth, while Brendo shines! I know...who’d have guessed?!
Our guest is @BitcoinSampo, and we’re delighted to go international again. We want to hear perspectives from all over the world and get out of our own echo chamber. So, we’re (virtually) off to Finland.
Despite sounding like an assassin, Sampo is a prolific Twitter poster about both Bitcoin and human rights. An English teacher by profession, he currently operates a small business that offers translating services, most recently in the gaming industry.
He – like many – are class of 2017, but really put in the work in 2018 to “discover the beauty of Bitcoin”, and for the last 3 years has been Bitcoin only.
In the pod we discuss:
