Mark Edge welcomes Light, a Bitcoin veteran since 2011, researcher, co-founder of Bitseed, and current team member at Alpen Labs, for a wide ranging conversation about the history of Bitcoin, where it stands today, and where it might be headed. They cover the block size debate, SegWit, the Lightning Network, self custody, zero knowledge proofs, and why Light believes the onus is on Bitcoin developers to make Bitcoin the best tool for the job rather than shaming people for using alternatives. Mark also shares the story of Free Talk Live being the first media outlet in the world to discuss Bitcoin, his early meeting with Gavin Andresen, and why he remains hopeful about Bitcoin despite its limitations. The conversation also turns to living free in the real world, why New Hampshire consistently ranks number one for freedom in the fifty states, what it actually feels like to move there from California, the Free State Project, and a candid discussion about polyamory.
