Ep. 36 - Vijay Boyapati | Before store of value, then medium of exchange.

In this episode Vijay Boyapati discusses the evolution of Bitcoin, emphasizing its role as a store of value before becoming a medium of exchange. He reflects on the current state of Bitcoin adoption, the impact of regulatory frameworks, and the importance of organic demand from consumers. The conversation also touches on the psychological barriers to retail adoption, the financialization of Bitcoin through corporate treasury strategies, and the potential future price movements of Bitcoin. Boyapati advocates for patience in the adoption process and cautions against conspiracy theories surrounding Bitcoin's price stagnation, attributing it instead to the natural transfer of supply from long-term holders to new investors.
