The Centbee Show 17 - Is Bitcoin Money？

The Centbee Show: Is Bitcoin Money? A Dive into the History and Evolution of Currencies

In this episode of the Centbee show, hosts Lorien Gamaroff and Kage Ntshingila start off explaining in which countries Centbee is available.

They explore the origins and evolution of money. They delve into concepts such as bartering and trading, the emergence of paper money, the transition to digital currencies, and eventually the rise of cryptocurrencies.

The hosts critically analyse the value proposition of Bitcoin and specifically Bitcoin SV (BSV), considering the attributes that make something valuable as money. They highlight the importance of having intrinsic value, something they argue is lacking in most cryptocurrencies but is inherent in Bitcoin SV.

Towards the end, the hosts address some user questions and feedback.
