In this Bitcoin Infinity episode, we dive into Joe Bryan’s film "What's The Problem?" and explore how Bitcoin is changing the way the world works. Joe talks about how Bitcoin offers a competitive edge to anyone who adopts it, from individuals to countries. He explains how Bitcoin is creating a global, free market where everyone benefits by acting in their own best interest. As more people join, that advantage will disappear, but right now, it’s the perfect time to use Bitcoin to stand out in a world still controlled by old systems.
