Cryptocurrency, Blockchain Tech, and Web3 with Shirin of Crypto Witch Club
If you believe that Bitcoin offers no utility beyond serving as a ponzi scheme or a device for money laundering, then it would only be logical to conclude that consuming any amount of energy is wasteful. If you are one of the tens of millions of individuals worldwide using it as a tool to escape monetary repression, inflation, or capital controls, you most likely think that the energy is extremely well spent. Whether you feel Bitcoin has a valid claim on society’s resources boils down to how much value you think Bitcoin creates for society.
No matter who you are or where you reside - web3 is coming, and it’s time to empower your mind and wallet.
In today’s episode, I chat with Shirin Carmel Bucknam, the co-founder of Crypto Witch Club - an inclusive, equitable space for all to learn about everything blockchain tech + web3. She believes equity lies in education and offers easy-to-understand answers to blockchain + web3-related questions for the Crypto Witch Club community.
Prior to launching Crypto Witch Club in September 2021, Shirin and her business partner, Kaitlin, ran a PR + Marketing Consultancy in NYC for 9 years.
