Many believe that Bitcoin is “just one of thousands of cryptoassets”—this is true in the same way that the number zero is just one of an infinite series of numbers. In reality, Bitcoin is special, and so is zero: each is an invention which led to a discovery that fundamentally reshaped its overarching system—for Bitcoin, that system is money, and for zero, it is mathematics. Since money and math are mankind’s two universal languages, both Bitcoin and zero are critical constructs for civilization. In this series, we explore Breedlove’s written work: “The Number Zero and Bitcoin.” Article: https://breedlove22.medium.com/the-number-zero-and-bitcoin-4c193336db5b// SPONSORS // In Wolf's Clothing: https://wolfnyc.com/iCoin Hardware Wallet (use discount code BITCOIN23): https://www.icointechnology.com/CrowdHealth: https://www.joincrowdhealth.com/breedloveWasabi Wallet: https://wasabiwallet.io/Join Me At Bitcoin 2023 in Miami (use discount code BREEDLOVE): https://b.tc/conference/Casa (use discount code BREEDLOVE): https://keys.casa/Bitcoin Apparel (use discount code BREEDLOVE): https://thebitcoinclothingcompany.com/ Feel Free Tonics (use discount code BREEDLOVE): https://botanictonics.comCarnivore Bar (use discount code BREEDLOVE): https://carnivorebar.com/// OUTLINE // 00:00:00 - Coming up 00:01:45 - Intro 00:03:19 - Helping Lightning Startups With In Wolf's Clothing 00:04:05 - The Number Zero and Bitcoin 00:05:05 - Bitcoin Is the Only Thing of Value from all the other Cryptoassets 00:07:16 - A Historical Comparison between the Number Zero and Bitcoin 00:08:27 - The Number Zero Was the Precursor to the Digital Age 00:10:03 - The Theory of Something for Nothing 00:13:06 - The Number Zero and Bitcoin Are Two of the Most Useful Tools in Human History 00:15:38 - Understanding the Utility of Nothingness within Bitcoin 00:17:43 - The Philosophical Perspective of the Number Zero and Bitcoin 00:23:23 - A Significant Invention That Led To a Significant Discovery 00:26:37 - Fundamental Similarities between Bitcoin and the Number Zero 00:29:12 - The Number Zero Was the Missing Piece 00:32:59 - Secure Your Bitcoin Stash with the iCoin Hardware Wallet 00:33:55 - Take Control of Your Healthcare with CrowdHealth 00:34:57 - A Bitcoin Wallet with Privacy Built-In: Wasabi Wallet 00:35:49 - The Origin of the Number Zero and Its Impact on Mathematics 00:40:06 - How the Hindu-Arabic Numeral System Spread Through The Trade Network 00:43:22 - Advantages of the Hindu-Arabic Numeral System over Roman Numerals 00:46:07 - Efficiency is the Best Solution 00:51:47 - The Superior Idea of the Number Zero and Bitcoin 00:58:23 - The Functional Significance of the Number Zero as a Placeholder 01:04:13 - The Economic Incentive of the Number Zero 01:07:43 - The Number Zero Defined Negative Numbers 01:10:14 - A Chance to Win Discounted Tickets to the Bitcoin 2023 Conference and 10M SATS 01:11:09 - Hold Bitcoin in the Most Secure Custody Model with Casa 01:11:57 - Zero Is the Gateway to the World of Knowledge-Based Innovation 01:17:38 - The Common Denominator in a Fractional System 01:22:03 - Money and Mathematics as Key Constructs of Civilization 01:26:52 - Price Is the Fundamental Language of the Human Economy 01:28:51 - Money, Mathematics, and Human Rationality// PODCAST //Podcast Website: https://whatismoneypodcast.com/Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast...Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/25LPvm8...RSS Feed: https://feeds.simplecast.com/MLdpYXYI// SUPPORT THIS CHANNEL // Bitcoin: 3D1gfxKZKMtfWaD1bkwiR6JsDzu6e9bZQ7 Sats via Strike: https://strike.me/breedlove22Sats via Tippin.me: https://tippin.me/@Breedlove22Dollars via Paypal: https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/RBreedloveDollars via Venmo: https://account.venmo.com/u/Robert-Breedlove-2The "What is Money?"
