“It seemed like a risky thing. But the more I did understand it, the more I was like NOT having bitcoin is the real risk. OK, the price goes up and down. But at the end of the day, even there in the worst of the bear markets, I'd be like, has anything really changed other than the price? Nothing has changed fundamentally. So why would my belief in this change?”

On this Bitcoin Talk episode of THE Bitcoin Podcast, Walker talks with Mandrik, a Bitcoin OG who started selling Baklava for Bitcoin back in 2011.
