Pod 20: Interview with Jason Maier
“It’s great to be skeptical, but not dismissive.” Jason Maier shares his views on the multidisciplinary nature of Bitcoin and the importance of having a range of voices and perspectives introducing the concepts of Bitcoin to prospective adopters.
Jason Maier is the author of A Progressive's Case for Bitcoin, a book for anyone starting to learn about Bitcoin and wants to understand the reality behind the buzz. Exploring the value proposition of Bitcoin through a progressive lens, Maier's book outlines why Bitcoin is good for the environment, how it helps poor and marginalized communities, and why Bitcoin serves as a protest against too-big-to-fail banks. In essence, all the people-centric reasons Bitcoin was created in the first place. This inspirational read, which requires no background knowledge, is a great starting point for anyone curious about Bitcoin beyond the boundaries of Western privilege, clickbait headlines, and social media chatter.
Jason Maier is a teacher of mathematics with a personal conviction about how Bitcoin will reshape the world. More of Jason's writing can be found at www.bitcoinmagazine.com.
