Details

Special guest this time at Satoshis Coffeeshop is Knut Svanholm. He'll present his book "Bitcoin: Everything divided by 21 million".

"Imagine, everything there is and everything that will ever be, divided by 21 million.” This book opens with a difficult invitation that immediately makes us question the way we think and presents us with the challenge of bitcoin.

In a brilliantly simple way, Knut Svanholm, embarks on an exploration of how we think, our relationship with time, money, and value, and how they are fundamentally intertwined in each of us. With Knut at the helm, we journey through economics, game theory, mathematics, alchemy, philosophy, and violence to ultimately reach the most critical societal paradigm shift in society, bitcoin. A new origo, a point zero.

Topic this time: Bitcoin: Everything divided by 21 million

Speaker:

Knut Svanholm is a former tall ship sailor, singer, and crew manager at an offshore shipping company. His book "Bitcoin: Sovereignty through mathematics" was one of the most praised Bitcoin books of 2019, and he's the mind behind the "Infinity divided by 21M" meme.

Bitcoin-Calendar Anniversaries March 12:

2013 - 24 Block Rollback: A hard fork occurs in the Blockchain: After a bug was exposed between versions 0.7 and 0.8 of the Bitcoin reference client, a fast response from the developers, community, miners, and services orchestrated a rollback of 24 blocks, preventing a split in the Bitcoin network. A previously undiscovered protocol rule results in a hard fork of the 0.8.0 reference client.
