How should we prepare for the next monetary crisis, particularly in Argentina? Will those governments target people? Does respect for the law matter? Could a government or bank buy up all the bitcoin?
These questions are from the February monthly patron session and the Athens’ Bitcoin and Blockchain Tech meetup, which took place on February 23rd and July 12th 2019, respectively.

Hero
???? Sell all of your Bitcoin. Sell it so we can get another bull run quicker for hodlers like me ????
so based
i was just reading about asteroid mining recently. where there's trillions worth of gold & other precious metals. Gold won't be a limited resource in future. which leaves only 1 option cryptocurrency and bitcoin will stay the king of it.
Love the dubstep part at 2:48
respect!!!
I read the news today, oh boy! Portugal Portugal Portugal! Fuck yeah!
Just an update for Andreas and all others that are dealing with hair loss. Yes, another used case for Bitcoin ! We offer hair transplantation for BTC since 2016. PLease someone let Peter Schiff know about this.
Thank you Andreas for the video. Did you ever thought that Bitcoin as a creation was given to this civilization as antagonist of fiat currency. The question is – if such genius mind could create this miracle Bitcoin, can that genius mind manipulate/amend it at some stage in the future?
absolutely great!
You just made me realize I don't have enough Bitcoin!
how bitcoin transfers wealth from the elites to normies
That speech on the drive into drugs was cool
We are ALL slaves. With Bitcoin, we will all be free! Please keep up the great work! You're helping to change the world!
Andreas what are your thoughts on the US trying to ban end to end encryption? something to even worry about?
many things to consider
Thanks for fighting the good fight Andreas!
That was profound.
Andreas raises a very interesting point regarding the price of gold. If the price goes too high then people rip open mountains everywhere trying to get more of it… In much the same way, if Bitcoin’s price rises too high too quickly, then an unbelievable amount of electricity will be produced (dirty and clean) to chase down and mine those remaining bitcoin. Solar, wind, coal, oil, and the big one nuclear power plants could proliferate around the world at a rapid pace. The difficulty adjustment would deter some but won’t stop the growth of miners.
There is a certain ecological responsibility that we have to keep the price of bitcoin down and to keep potential miners disinterested.
@andreas I know You don't want to increase the number of BTC in circulation above 21m, I certainly don't, what are your thoughts on adding more decimal places however as it gets scarcer? 8 will not be enough.
Banks can buy crypto and sell at a loss. They can buy people out of crypto, and then keep the prices volatile to keep them out. Probably would work for lots of the people.
Good Lord, the audio quality from the audience hurts my ear ? Better cut it out.
China just released crypto currency: I don’t think it will be open ,neutral, and distributed ?
Awesome as always.. When was the last public audit of the FED? Never.. Bitcoin, a few minutes ago.. Be well…
genius, loved it! <3
@Andreas, I wish you could transcribe the audience questions and make them appear as subtitles, because all the questions were mostly inaudible. Keep up the awesome work. TY.
your amazing
Great answers
Master of FUD !
What was the question ??
Let‘s see how randomX will do. Save crypto decentralization & make cpu mining great again.
Use Monero.
take some rest for yourself, you look tired. ❤️
