Why is it still so hard to buy bitcoin? How is earning better? Why is proof-of-work valuable? How would taking away control over money from the state impact warmongering? What tools are most needed to help unbanked people use bitcoin? Is Bitcoin ready as a system of daily and retail payments? How do you introduce children to this new form of money? Have a conversation about the birds and the bees, then the private keys.
These questions are from the Bitcoin Munich meetup, which took place on June 27th 2019. If you want early-access to talks and a chance to participate in the monthly live Q&As with Andreas, become a patron: https://www.patreon.com/aantonop

Money is a tool to store energy spent on productivity by anyone to be used in the future.
Everything you say is exchanging mechanisms someone earning to another in different locations and different productivity rate dud to education and technology.
so basically he's saying to get any local use out of the digital currency – like bitcoin – you have to do a blackmarket conversion from bitcoin to the local currency at a coffeeshop or back alley…risky and perhaps illegal…
bad ass bruh
I wish I could get paid in btc…
someone should make a basic webshop thingy for coins. so anyone can put on their website/blog
Andreas is the GOAT!!!!!
Is there a problem if i use online key generators to generate private key and then put it on paper? The website wont save my private key?
I have £1.53 (of BTC) in my mobile wallet …I can't send it anywhere????
So what kind of scammer claims to be a early btc adopter then sets up a patreon? ………………
Aaaah – in Philippines we use Coins.ph – you can withdraw peso for your BTC directly in a ATM – even without a card – you just get a code to use in the ATM …..!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Real strong video mate! Bitcoin such a great invention and you tell it understandable and easy! ??
I follow your advice and i am the one that will earn it by selling my house in BTC or crypto ! Respect for you. Please take a look at the recent dutch press, it's all over the news. I will put an excerpt from the press release on my channel for reference, i really hope you will take a look! (it's mostly dutch , sorry for that)
For those of us that don't own our own business, just buy it every paycheck. It's the same as getting paid in bitcoin… except for kyc
Thnk u my Master. I wannna cry when i think how powerful u are to propagate sound monetary system for peace. U ll be greatly compensated even more than now one day. Just be safe. Hire some great bodyguard
Damn, Andreas is getting a little feisty
Andreas – When you know you can 'Like' the video before you watch it.
Soon we'll see people standing in intersections with signs that read, "Will work for Bitcoin."
yeah well they can sell their bitcoin for pesos because others treat it as an investment. works both ways.
Bitchcoin is still the original shitcoin in this technology leap. According to Andreas' own words, he would have to talk about Electroneum, and third-generation DAG non-block, non-chains.
Recently, I also sold my car. One possible buyer texted he can only get the car four days later, but he can transfer the money immediately, so I wouldn't give the car to someone else. I asked if he had any cryptos, in order for me to see his transfer within minutes. He answered yes and he is going to send me a message about it on WhatsApp. I never heard from him. He probably saw my WhatsApp avatar, an Amsterdam travel photo, and now tells all his friends that he is way to smart for these drug-dealing crypto-scammers 🙂
0"40 : anonymous "hey hey hey"
lmao
Bitcoin is prohibition for would-be money printing tyrants.
A Bitcoin treasure
589 likes and i think the 5 dislikes were accidental when someone loses balance with phone in hand.
But Andreas, in order to accept my salary or sell servicies and products in BTC, first this other people need to have Bitcoin too 😀
5 central bankers down voted this video.
How do I fix the price of BTC when earning, selling or paying… ? Is there a daily reference, an exchange reference? Any guess?
I would love to see a debate between Andreas and Peter Schiff. That would not age well for Peter.
That approach works only: (1) after the year 2030 or so (i.e., when the volume, law, and price stabilise, (2) for people who can afford to earn BTC – for 99.9% of people in real life this is FAPP impossible today (Andreas, I love you to pieces but please understand you are that 0.1% at this point). Bottom line is: for now BTC is mostly an investment. This won't change for about a decade.
What if someone goes to buy a car with bitcoin the 'seller' pulls out a gun says 'send me all your bitcoin or I shoot you'.
i'm going to have a child. i'll try to figure out a simplified version based on your definition. good job!
2:49 "Bitcoin converts every bit energy into robust security for a nation state resistant global network that is the most secure time sequenced recording of immutable truth" Legendary! :O
Sounds good and all but it's a chicken and an egg problem. Nobody wants to pay me in Bitcoin.
PHP/BTC is not +20% in Philippines. Not even close.
But your point is well taken.
AMA is a Blockstar!!
