Description: In this livestream, Andreas talks about the IMF and El Salvador, the IMF and Bitcoin, and what it means for a country to adopt bitcoin as national currency. He also answers questions about the metaverse, no not the facebook one, cryptocurrency cold storage and so much more. Chapters 0:00:00 Beginning of stream 0:02:04 Beginning of sound 0:04:13 Three related questions together: Do you believe using BTC as a national currency is a good thing? If so, what are some reasons that countries should make the switch? [walter] What are the implication of Bitcoin as legal tender. What can the IMF do or say about it? [Becker] What do you think of the IMF telling El Salvador to remove bitcoin as legal tender? 0:11:26 What do you think about the relationship between blockchain technology and the metaverse? Is this something forced and overhyped, or is this actually a practical solution to social and financial issues? [Walter] 0:15:39 I heard that your YouTube channel got hacked, alongside many other crypto YouTubers. Do you believe this is an inside job? Is such an inside job likely or realistic at a crypto exchange? 0:19:48 In general tax on crypto gains are based on gain/loss between value at purchase date and value at sale date. When I take some BTC out of my cold wallet to sell it, how do I know what specific BTC from my previous purchases am I selling now? [Crytocat] 0:23:30 Is there any truth to the argument that bitcoin will have more than 21 million coins. The claim is the security model breaks when there are only transaction fees. What are your thoughts on this? 0:29:46 Cold storage is always air-gapped in my mind. My friend believes you can produce a hot wallet and turn it cold. Thinking "Cold"/"Hot" relates to being online or offline at a particular time, not a past or future condition. Your thoughts? [TheVoice] 0:33:45 I calculate it on excel. 21 million is approximate. if the block is created strictly every 10 minutes, even after 500 years there will be only 21,024,000 bitcoin [SinisterCr03] 0:34:52 Thank you to supporters 0:36:56 AOPP Address Ownership Proof Protocol is highly discussed right now. I think it's an glass half full/empty argument. Both sides have valid arguments. Can you explain AOPP in detail? Especially what is sent and recieved? [Becker] 0:46:34 Moxie recently wrote an article saying web3 is not decentralised because people don't want to run servers and everyone makes api calls to the same servers such as opensea do you agree? do you think web3 will be more decentralised than web2? [the swiss road to crypto] 0:52:40 Book, video info about spanish 0:54:29 Andreas, we miss your talks! I've been watching the old ones again and again and you always give new insights every time. [Giovanni] 0:57:09 Do you think that Decentralized Exchanges are a threat to Centralized ones? Is it possible to handle the same volume and get similar slippage as to the lost value in an order book spread? Is one format better than the other for high volume?
