Bitcoin Happy Hour #8: Political Gambits and Lightning Strikes Bitfinex

Colin, Michael and Brandon gauge the ethical and political ramifications of Virgil Griffith's talk at the Pyongyang blockchain conference--with a surprise drop in by BTC Inc's CEO, David Bailey, on why his arrest sets a dangerous precedent for anyone working in crypto. On a more positive political note, the team also discusses Bakkt CEO, Kelly Loeffler, and her sudden appointment to the U.S. senate. And they round out the happy hour by touching on why (if at all) Bitfinex's recent Lightning Network integration is a milestone for the Bitcoin industry.
