Episode notes
Aleks Svetski is an entrepreneur, friend, prolific writer in the bitcoin space, and author of the recently released book 'The UnCommunist Manifesto', a logical, and piercing takedown of 'Communist' thinking, and a simple explanation of the rationale (and virtues) of individual freedom and voluntary exchange.
It really is a great book to clarify ones own thinking, and counter the abundance of misinformed and logically inconsistent rhetoric on the subject which abounds in the discourse today.
In this discussion, Aleks and I discuss the motivations and process behind writing and publishing his first book (with co-author Mark Moss), the shift in mindset he experienced in 2022, and the resulting change in focus and how he 'engages' (online), and his recent article on why he believes 'hyperbitcoinization' will likely take significantly longer than many proponents are expecting.
Enjoy!
