I had a ton of fun with this debate…yes, this episode is a debate. While in Las Vegas earlier this month, I hosted a debate and the topic was Bitcoin vs Gold. I had 7 questions and both sides got their chance to defend their beliefs.
We had 4 panellists, 2 for Bitcoin and 2 for Gold.
Team Bitcoin: Eryka Gemma and Paul Rosenberg

I was the moderator, and thank goodness I was there…we almost had bloodshed..whew!

Round 2: Privacy & Practical Issues

Round 6: Liquidity
