If you're curious about whether Bitcoin is decentralized, I have some bad news for you. It is not, especially when it comes to Bitcoin mining, which is controlled by a few large miners. Ryan Condron, CEO of Titan and Lumerin, is a pioneer in cryptocurrency and has been advocating for Bitcoin's decentralization and anonymity since 2012. In this episode, you will learn about the concept of decentralization, the potential for major conflicts over Bitcoin initiated by world governments, and why Ryan is so bullish on Bitcoin.
