In this episode, Pierre Rochard revisits his foundational experience with the Nakamoto Institute and its influence on bitcoin philosophy, including "Hyperbitcoinization" and "Speculative Attack." Rochard recounts his transition from an accountant to software engineer to product manager at Kraken, emphasizing the importance of the 'don’t trust, verify' approach in his work. He tackles common bitcoin misconceptions, the New York Times environmental impact controversy, and the future of Bitcoin mining amidst halving block rewards.
