Chamath Palihapitiya: This Will DESTROY Everything. Why Bitcoin, Ethereum & Defi Will End Capitalism

So recently, the All in Podcast, which is hosted by Chamath Palihapitiya and three of his close friends, Jason Calacanis, David Sacks and David Friedberg, did a live episode in front of an audience and the conversation steered towards Cryptocurrency and a decentralised financial system.

In this video, we will highlight what Chamath and Co. think about the evolving world of decentralised finance and why it’s not as bright and positive as you first may think.

An interesting theme they highlight is how if we view major Investing waves as a prediction market for what high net worth and smart people think the future will look like, the underlying themes of Cryptocurrency investment, being mistrust of governments, debasement of fiat currencies - it paints a very dystopian vision of the future.

Make sure to stick around to the end where Chamath speaks on why that if you are in the position to gain capital or power, you have the moral responsibility to help steer the direction of the future. Also, we will cover some of the latest on-chain data for Ethereum that suggests where the price is heading, short term.

Chamath Palihapitiya is a Canadian-American venture capitalist, engineer, SPAC sponsor and the founder and CEO of Social Capital.
