In this episode of the Think Bitcoin Podcast, I talk to Steven Lubka, VP of Investor Relations at Nakamoto. We explore Steven's personal philosophy, vibes, encountering the self, what it means to be on a constant journey of self-discovery, the importance of action, the significance of Bitcoin, and why you should be having a good time. We also discuss negative versus positive freedom and the state of humanistic/artistic discourse and how Bitcoin might shape these things in the future. Enjoy!
