In this talk, Andreas reflects on all the exhilarating and terrifying moments of the last five years in Bitcoin, especially the price bubble of 2017. But he also reminds people who have come for the price that they should stay for the principles.

This keynote talk happened during the epic one-night only extravaganza at the historic Music Box Theater in Chicago on April 25th, 2018.

The main event, emceed by Pamela Morgan, was a live recording of the 5-year anniversary episode of the Let’s Talk Bitcoin Podcast. All four hosts Adam B. Levine, Stephanie Murphy, Jonathan Mohan, and Andreas M. Antonopoulos were together on-stage for the first time ever. The hour-long episode included the hosts discussing some of their favorite memories over the past five years, what’s happening now, and of course, they encouraged some audience participation. The show was recorded and made available as a podcast on the LTB network.

  1. Does anyone have an opinion on a blockchain with 5 different mining algorithms. Only one algo being sha256 for ASICs. The other 4 algos being geared towards CPU and GPU. All the ASIC power in the world would only produce 20% of the rewards. Is this not the solution to "ASIC resistance is futile?" I am not here to promote and idea, but to learn. Please leave feedback.

  2. Although I appreciate and love people of his passion. This kind of people are needed in our world to keep balance to everything he is against. But reality is a bitch. Like it or not. He looks at things very "superficial". Not meaning to say he is like us regulars. His depth is still beyond majority. I mean real depth. One just needs to ask one self how did the world become as it is. The answer is really simple and also very complex. Basically we are today because of what we really are.

  3. going trough comments it's pretty obvious. you ppl need someone to spoonfeed you.. this guy isnt rich, nor is he an expert in economics or even cryptography or network topology… he just tells you what you want to hear. now say moooooo
