ASOMOCO Unplugged Episode 2

Karmic reciprocity, our inner civil war, Bitcoin wrestling and the Mononoke Wolf Choir

Dear ASOMOCO community,

I’m really happy to present Episode 2 of my new podcast ASOMOCO Unplugged, a relaxed and informal walk through the chaos of our economic system, accompanied by musical compositions and guest contributions. In the first half we cover:

In the second half, we have a crypto special:

  • Jemima Kelly and Eli Gothill on the Grim Ghost of Crypto Future

  • Numerical nouns vs. numerical adjectives and why this matters for the Hole in Bitcoin’s Heart

  • Professional wrestling and how it inspired my recent essay, the Art of Crypto Kayfabe

  • The crucial concept of countertrade, and how it secretly governs the Bitcoin world

  • Josh Davila on TrumpMusk’s Bitcoin gambit, patronage networks and the risk of political manipulation of the crypto markets

  • Cryptography vs. cryptocurrency
