022 - Samson Mow - Bitcoin for Millennials

What this episode covers

Samson Mow is the CEO of JAN3, a Bitcoin technology company focused on accelerating hyperbitcoinization. He is best known for his work with El Salvador’s Bitcoin initiatives, and his efforts in nation-state Bitcoin adoption worldwide. As one of the top executives in the Bitcoin ecosystem, his expertise spans from running one of the largest exchanges and mining pools when he was the COO of BTCC, to guiding the development and deployment of Bitcoin infrastructure as the CSO of Blockstream. In the past weeks, he has also been talking about “the Bitcoin Omega candle” and how Bitcoin will get to $1 Million dollars. I wanted to get his thoughts on that to of course!
