| 0:00.0 | Welcome to Bankless, where we explore the frontier of internet money and internet finance. |
| 0:19.8 | This is how to get started, how to get better, |
| 0:21.8 | how to front run the opportunity. This is Ryan Sean Adams. I'm here with David Hoffman |
| 0:26.9 | and we're here to help you become more bankless. Hey David, how's it going? This is episode two. |
| 0:32.4 | Hey Ryan. Yeah, this is going to be a good one. Another really foundational episode that's |
| 0:37.3 | really going to set us up for some really awesome topics into the future. |
| 0:41.0 | Talking all day about monetary policy, the history of money, and where these two big crypto economic systems, Bitcoin and Ethereum fit in the world of monetary policy. |
