I joined Adam Meister of BitcoinMeister to discuss Bitcoin, India, money, gold, and the deeper problems exposed by India’s monetary policies.

We discuss Bitcoin’s potential in India, the continuing effects of demonetization, the importance of gold, and why people seek alternatives when trust in paper currency, banks, and government institutions weakens.

Watch the full discussion below:
