<p>What does it mean to treat Bitcoin as perfected private property? Allen Farrington joins me to explore why Bitcoin is the new Venice, how sound money enables capital accumulation, and why Bitcoin represents perfected private property. We also dive into early-stage investing, analyzing Bitcoin-native startups, the misallocation of institutional capital, the opportunity cost of fiat, and what it means to live by the Bushido of Bitcoin.</p>
<p>Allen Farrington is a writer and investor. He co-wrote “Bitcoin Is Venice” and “Only The Strong Survive”, and is a co-founder of Axiom, a bitcoin-focused venture firm.</p>
