Bitcoin, Beef, Bull Markets, and Rodeos - Dave Bradley
In this episode, I had the pleasure of speaking with Dave Bradley, co-founder of Bull Bitcoin, who is known as the strongest and best-looking Bitcoin entrepreneur in Canada. We dive into a variety of topics, starting with Dave's love for Alberta beef, particularly the Brant Lake Wagyu, a cross between Japanese Wagyu and Alberta Black Angus. Dave shares his journey into Bitcoin, starting in 2010, and how he co-founded Bull Bitcoin with Francis Pouliot in 2018.
We discuss the importance of self-custody in Bitcoin and the potential for new models of custody that maintain legal ownership for users. Dave also shares insights into the Bitcoin Rodeo conference, which focuses on Bitcoin's real-world applications and includes a mix of comedy and serious discussions. We touch on the broader implications of Bitcoin on government and society, exploring the potential for a future with more decentralized governance and the challenges of transitioning to a Bitcoin standard. Throughout the conversation, we reflect on the current state of the world, the role of Bitcoin in addressing systemic issues, and the importance of security and privacy in the digital age.
