#2.3: Carbon Credits - A New Asset Class, with Lawson Steele
Carbon Credits are a fascinating market & personal investment that I have talked about many times, in this podcast, and on twitter. I am therefore thrilled to have had on Lawson Steele, Head of Carbon & Utilities at Berenberg Bank to discuss the market in depth. Lawson is THE expert in this space, and we cover a myriad of dynamics from the obvious political ones, the less obvious political ones, thru to how CCs affect corporates, what happens in a potential future world with decentralised power gen & storage, Germany & Nuclear, and much more Ask yourself if you think they ARE indeed a new asset class once you have finished listening As always, please send me any feedback whether good, bad or ugly, best to DM me on twitter; and if you have any requests for the show then suggestions are welcome too

#2.2: Concentrate to Accumulate, Only When Convicted
I discuss my current framework for concentrated, high conviction, investing; and also the flip side, what learnings I have had when I don't have high conviction investments - as capital still needs to be put to work. In this episode, we cover current high conviction investments, potential next high conviction 'radar' investments, the psychology involved, learnings I have had over the years that have helped reduce stress (i.e. when to outsource, things to stop doing). As always, please let me know any feedback via DM on twitter (@Darky999), whether good, bad or ugly it's all welcome. If you have any requests for future episodes please also let me know.

#2.1: How to Break Bitcoin with Physics - A Thought Experiment
We are back, with Series 2, Episode 1...! This is meant to be a highly thought provoking Thought Experiment, it will trigger many people, but hopefully most people realise what it's getting at. The inspiration for the episode were people on twitter who think Bitcoin will be 'THE' thing for literally forever - i.e. infinite time. We dive into Relativity, Proof of Work (PoW), a crazy but scientifically sound way to break mining (which is likely impossible for probably 1,000s of years to come...), how we can control time, how this means we neatly circumvent some Energy requirements, and all with Physics that is generally considered to be correct, and proven beyond doubt (but note, Relativity is likely not the deepest theory, but it has been proven 1,000 different ways). If you are offended by it then I would suggest you reassess the point of the podcast, it's absolutely not having a go at Bitcoin, it should be a light hearted take on an interesting Thought Experiment.

#48: Response to MacroVoices #255 Episode on Bitcoin
Recently one of my favourite podcasts, MacroVoices, had a discussion between the host Erik Townsend and Mike Green about Bitcoin's role in the Future of Digital Currency. I have huge respect for both Erik and Mike, and so I immediately listened! If you have not listened to it then I really recommend that you do, BEFORE listening to my reaction to it. Unfortunately, I found the episode to be biased, misleading, and 5 years out of date. I woke up the next morning and had about 100 people asking me to do a reaction pod to it. So here is that reaction pod. It's a monologue, it's totally different to normal, and people may love or hate it (as always please send any feedback to me @Darky999) I am candid, civil, and I think it's abundantly clear that this reaction is not in any way a personal attack on either Erik or Mike, quite the opposite, this is to add to the discussion about the financial system of the world, and how we can hopefully build a brighter future based on new technologies.

#47: Greg Crennan: Bitcoin Bull vs Bear Debate
Greg Crennan (@GregCrennan), the CEO of Golden Coast Consultants, joins me to debate Bitcoin - bull vs bear. Greg is quizzing me in this episode, however also debating with me, and we dive into many of the often asked questions & pushbacks about Bitcoin Greg and I fully agree about the long term bearish prospects of fiat money vs hard assets, and we both own gold & silver. So we should agree on Bitcoin right? Well we don't, so hence this debate! This episode is not meant to change a mega-bear's mind about Bitcoin, instead it's aimed to hopefully educate those who haven't had the time (or inclination) to dive deeper, as there are many narratives that I don't think are relevant anymore, yet they stick around for years as many people's minds As always, if you have any feedback whether good/bad/ugly, please DM me @Darky999 on Twitter

#46: Marty Bent on Bitcoin and its non-obvious ramifications (why might the Oil & Gas industry become dependent on it?)
Marty Bent (@martybent) joins me to dive deep into the non-obvious ramifications of Bitcoin, its technology and its network. With a deep dive into how the Oil & Gas industry could become dependent on Bitcoin over the next decade Marty is a well known proponent of Bitcoin and both an original thinker but also a healthy sceptic that is realistic about current limitations of Blockchain technology. He is the host of the popular Bitcoin podcast Tales From The Crypt, and also has written his blog, Marty's Bent, daily since 2017. In addition, he is the Director of Business Development at Great American Mining , and for gold bug listeners, this is not about precious metal mining (but this does come up!) We also discuss how Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs) fit, or don't fit, into a world where Bitcoin, and Energy, underpin the financial system. This will sound far fetched to many, however please keep an open mind, one thing is for certain, the USD won't be the Reserve FX of the world for ever more... Dr Dark After Dark #37 is a good primer on potential Next Generation Reserve Currencies with Jeff Snider (of Alhambra Investments) As always if you have any feedback, whether good/bad/ugly, please DM me on Twitter @Darky999

#45: Santiago Velez on Blockchains (Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP, Enterprise, CBDCs...)
Santiago Velez (@Santiag78758327) joins me to discuss Blockchains, the different types, their interoperability, and what the key features are that give advantages over legacy technology This podcast is NOT about the price of Bitcoin, it's the first in a mini-series I am doing on Bitcoin & Blockchain, as many listeners have asked me to dive into the parts that are not covered as much as they should be We cover blockchain basics, different types (especially enterprise vs permissionless), JPMorgan coin, XRP & Swift, and on to Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs), and then how all the above needs to interoperate, in order for the 'SMTP for money' (alluding to SMTP = the protocol that enabled email to interoperate) to revolutionise money, and the concept of value And yes, we touch on the US Election, but from a perspective of how Blockchains can help Elections, not just in the US, but everywhere... As always, please DM me on Twitter (@Darky999) if you have any feedback, whether good/bad/ugly
